Meet the Member: Finery Bridal Chic One of the most exciting parts of
planning a wedding is shopping for your wedding dress. However, this part is not always seamless or easy and often comes with a lot of stress. Finery Bridal Chic is looking to change that and make shopping for a wedding dress the magical, positive experience that it should be. As soon as you walk into Finery Bridal Chic, you know you are in good hands. With a wide selection of bridal gowns, veils, and accessories for every bride, each bride is sure to find what they are looking for to complete their perfect day.
Q: Tell us about Finery Bridal Chic. What does your company offer to the Rochester region? A: Finery Bridal Chic is a bridal boutique that focuses solely on the bride. We exclusively offer bridal gowns, veils and accessories, so the bride can feel the focus is completely on her during her shopping experience. We offer one-on-one appointments, so our focus can be on the bride’s customer service experience instead of just the sale.
Owner of Finery Bridal Chic, Claire Landgraf, has brought the boutique bridal experience to Rochester.
Q: How did Finery Bridal Chic Start? A: The idea for Finery Bridal actually started when I
was still in high school, in Tennessee. I began working in bridal as a part time job and fell in love with the industry. I knew I wanted to open my own store from a very young age, and when I moved to Rochester in 2011, I noticed the need for a boutique bridal experience. I began my business in a small storefront with 750sqft of retail space, and I recently expanded into a building with over double the retail space. The growth I’ve been able to experience really tells the story of how this type of business was needed in our community.
