Your Dream Dress!

Not only was this one of our favorite brides, but also one of our favorite bridal parties!! Loving the champagne bridesmaids dresses and also loving how our bride customized this dress with a lace bolero that made it all her own! :)

Just Engaged?!

Fan of holiday engagements? Chances are you're newly engaged from before or on Christmas. I've talked to many friends about this and many of them have said it doesn't matter as long as it's a private moment. One of my best friends just had this happen to her and they had their private time together and then were able to celebrate with family after. What's so great about a Christmas engagement is there's so much time to celebrate with family and friends. Pop the champagne and get ready because the next year is going to fly! As with most December engagements the couple wants to plan a wedding for the following summer/fall. With the typical time to order a dress being 6-9 months this can put some brides on crunch time! The great thing about Renee Austin Wedding is we work closely with our designers to offer rush shipping and we know all the priority gown styles! Congratulations to you and happy dress shopping!

The New Kid in Town

Hello beautiful friends!

My name is Chantell LaForest, and I am the latest addition to the Renee Austin Wedding team. Hired as a Bridal Consultant and Social Media Superstar in August, I have loved every second of acquainting myself with the team, store and amazing pieces that call Renee Austin home!

Born and raised in Michigan's Upper Peninsula, I quickly learned my dreams extended beyond the comfort of flannel, venison and the world's best pasties. After graduating from Central Michigan University this May with a bachelor's in Integrative Public Relations and Wedding Planning Certification from The Bridal Society, I packed up the most important pieces of my life and moved to Grand Rapids on a whim and lovin' spoonful of faith.

Grand Rapids has provided beautiful, life-changing opportunities, the chance to flex my "bridal muscles" and, most importantly, a place to call home. When I am not working one of my three jobs, I can be found running the streets to indie music or huddled over my laptop in a coffee shop. I have a serious sweet tooth, preferring gummi worms and Coca-Cola to actual food (although I begrudgingly stick to Diet A&W and peanut butter-covered apples these days). I hope to see you in the boutique soon!

My Dream Wedding
As the only non-betrothed Renee Austin team member, I still get to fantasize about my dream day with wild abandon. So what does my dream day look like, you ask? A dusk ceremony in an open field under a willow tree draped with mason jars and a chunky chandelier. Mismatched bridal dresses. Men in bow-ties. A  reception venue with old wood floors and exposed brick walls, a gaudy chandelier or two hanging from the ceiling and an antique bathtub somehow harmoniously thrown into the mix. Quirky, creative and a physical representation of the love my future husband and I {hopefully} share. The dress? Check out a few of my favorites below!
