Located in Grand Rapids, Michigan, BIANKA Bridal hosts the trendy styles that modern brides seek and pleases its clients with fresh, contemporary wedding dress choices from designers like Hayley Paige and Lazaro to Amalee. Having opened its doors in 2014 with a very chic and stylish salon design - brides are welcomed in to fall in love with their stock of hand-selected designers. BIANKA Bridal fuses modern taste with the services of their trained stylists to ensure every bride experiences an unforgettable shopping experience in their search to find the one.




It is near impossible to compare stepping into BIANKA Bridal to stepping into any other bridal salon. BIANKA is a boutique bridal salon, meaning that a bride’s experience here is more personable, caring and customizable than any chain bridal store can offer. Teresa Shore, Owner of BIANKA Bridal says, “Your wedding is a reflection of you and your personal style. We understand that every bride is unique, and our dresses reflect just that.” The idea of a unique, individual style attracts many brides and BIANKA has recognized that need with their expert selection of gowns that explore beyond the traditional boundaries of bridal wear. That desire brides feel for a dress that is organic to their personality, yet timeless and alluring is met at BIANKA Bridal.

Beyond BIANKA Bridal's outstanding selection of gowns is their space and service. The salon is a warm space where is it easy to feel at home and it surrounds brides with the comfort to carefully select their dream gown. Brides are assisted by personal stylists as well. BIANKA's stylists, like their selection of gowns, are incomparable to the typical idea of a stylist. They not only focus on the wishes of the bride, but also on her overall style. Teresa says, “Our stylists are passionate about their work, and create personal experiences for every bride. We believe that finding your dream dress is one of the most precious moments in the wedding journey, only second best to saying, ‘I Do.’”

The magical “I do” moment where a bride finds her wedding dress is often seen at BIANKA as countless brides have found their dream dress within its walls. BIANKA Bridal has an expert level of care in finding brides a dress that speaks to them. Teresa notes that every bride’s personality aligns with different designers, “For the fun, whimsical bride who dares to be different we recommend Hayley Paige. For the enchanting bride with a wedding of dreams we recommend Lazaro. For the bride who appreciates detail, design and wants to show it off we recommend Calla Blanche. For the classic bride with a timeless wedding, the dress you’ll love forever, we recommend Nicole Spose. For the Boho Bride, the girl who wants to say ‘I do’ in a field of flowers we recommend TiAdora.” These recommendations speak to the care BIANKA takes in finding the ideal dress for every type of bride.
