Wedding gown, veil, shoes, flower girl dress, priceless encouragement & friendship & more is what we found at Reni's Bridal Boutique. Reni & Tonya were a major part of my daughter's dream wedding!
She & her fiancé (now husband) are Wichita elementary school teachers who invited their students to be in the wedding party. Alex simply wanted to bless her students and chose to post her “will you be in my wedding” moment on their favorite social media platform (Tik Tok). God took that seed of kindness and multiplied it a hundred times, it seems. Incredibly loving & generous people like Reni's team showered these kids & the couple with jaw-dropping abundance.
So many kindnesses were lavished on us during this process and now that we reflect on our favorite planning moments, Reni & Tonya are part of most of them. They believe in the story of love. They believe in the importance of focusing on the couple. All other things will peel away but the planning, hoping, spending is all because of the love of the couple.
We developed such a sweet friendship with Reni & Tonya that we invited them to the wedding and they blessed us by coming.
My daughter's gown was beautiful and not only did the boutique help us coordinate alterations, they also had the gown steamed & in perfect condition for her big day.
The wedding guests - and ultimately all who watch the national story on NBC Nightly News & CBS Inside Edition - experienced a fairytale event.
I would give 10 stars if I could!
Thank you also for coordinating the partnership with Morilee who ultimately donated 23 bridesmaids dresses to the girls. Thank you also for coordinating the "Bride Tribe" T-shirts for the junior bachelorette party we held at the Zoo. Your delight during the whole process was a gift...
Read moreLet me start by saying, "WOW"! For months I have been searching at other bridal stores in Wichita and could not understand why my experiences were not wonderful. The last store I left feeling frustrated and lost. I went to my appointment with an idea of what I thought looked good and wanted for a Caribbean beach wedding. Reni's Boutique takes one appointment at a time which, which for me, made all the difference. There was not the hustle of other brides and family members. Reni and Tonya dedicated their time to me and listened. I found out yesterday, listening to the bride is huge! 42 years of experience truly showed immediately, and they gave honest feedback. Some places I have been told me the dress looked beautiful on me even though I was thinking, what in the world!? Every dress Reni and Tonya sourced was one I loved. Their knowledge of bridal dresses after so many years is impeccable. I felt so comfortable with Reni and Tonya and found four beautiful dresses that I feel comfortable and myself in. I found my bridal boutique, just need to narrow down the dress. I cannot rave about how wonderful these ladies are, and their store. Please give them a call and book an appointment, this will be your last stop! I cannot wait to make my final decision at...
Read moreI bought a dress from Reni close to ten years ago. I left the dress at the shop for her to hold for me since I was living with my fiance at the time and didn't want him to peek at the dress. Our wedding never happened and I called Reni and told her to try to re-sale my dress because I didn't want it. It took me awhile, but I did eventually get engaged again and my first and only stop to look for a dress was Reni's. I had loved her customer service the first time, and I didn't want to shop anywhere else for my wedding dress. Not only did Reni remember me, but she gave me a discount on the second dress I bought from her. I live out of state now. I tried on dresses in April and didn't find one I loved, but Reni promised she is always getting in new dresses and to try again the next time I was in town. I made it back to Kansas in July and looked again, this time, I found the perfect dress! Reni listens to what you are looking for and she makes suggestions that would look good with your body type. There is no pressure, but amazing customer service. I loved the first dress I bought from her all those years back, but it wasn't the right guy. I found the right guy and the right...
