As a woman of color, I chose The White Dress by the shore not only for their wonderful selection of gowns, but because of their reviews and the TWD Instagram page, which represented a number of black and brown brides to be and models! I had the best experience! Every bride should make this their first and LAST stop. You won’t be disappointed!
