I opened One Bridal Annapolis with a simple vision: to create a bridal shopping experience that feels personal, exciting, and completely centered around you. After years in the bridal industry, I saw firsthand how overwhelming dress could feel, and I knew I wanted to bring a better shopping experience to my hometown. At One Bridal, we carry a collection of modern, fashion-forward gowns from designers around the world, focusing on exceptional quality, thoughtful design, and unforgettable details. 

Whether you're searching for a timeless classic, a statement-making fashion piece, or something entirely unique, our goal is to help you find a gown that feels authentically you. Nothing compares to the moment a bride sees herself and knows she's found the one - and being part of that moment inspires me every day. When you walk through our doors, you're not just shopping for a dress. You're becoming part of the One Bridal family, and we can't wait to celebrate this exciting chapter with you.

I’m originally from New Jersey, but I’ve lived in Florida, Washington, California, Arizona, New York, and now Maryland. I absolutely LOVE Annapolis—even though I’m an Army wife in a Navy town! :) It feels like I’m living in a historic Hallmark movie. I’m thrilled to be part of the One Bridal Annapolis team. This is my fourth bridal store and, by far, one of the most exciting experiences of my career. With almost a decade of experience, starting as a bridal consultant and now happily growing into a manager, I can confidently say it is one of the best jobs in the world. What I love most is the emotion that comes with finding the dress. There’s something so special about the moment when a bride realizes she’s found “the one.” As consultants, we often have a sixth sense for knowing which dress will make you feel amazing. It’s magical, and I’m honored to be part of that moment.

My goal is simple: to help you find a dress you absolutely love—one that makes you feel beautiful and confident. The best advice I can offer is to trust the process and keep an open mind. You might be surprised by what speaks to your heart! And always remember, I’m here to help you every step of the way—with no judgment, only support and excitement!

With a background in interior design and a lifelong love for fashion, texture, and pattern, I’ve always had an eye for beauty and detail. Growing up in Maryland, I never imagined that one day I’d be helping brides find their dream dresses right here in my area. My journey with One Bridal Annapolis began when my dear friend, Allia, hired me to design the shop’s interior.

I poured my heart into creating a space that feels warm, elegant, and inspiring. Soon after, she asked if I’d like to join her in making brides feel just as special as the space itself—and I couldn’t say no! As a bridal stylist, my greatest joy is guiding brides through one of the most exciting moments of their journey to “I do.” I’ve been married for over 10 years and have three wonderful kids, so I truly understand the magic of love and commitment.

My goal is to make every appointment a celebration—filled with joy, confidence, and, of course, the perfect dress. I can’t wait to meet you and help bring your bridal vision to life!

With a background rooted in both fashion and the wedding industry, I bring a thoughtful, style-driven approach to every bridal appointment. After five years in fashion retail, I transitioned into weddings in 2019, working as both a coordinator and venue manager. This gave me a deep understanding of the full bridal experience from start to finish.

My love for fashion, décor, and overall aesthetic naturally led me to the wedding world, where I thrives in a fast-paced environment and enjoys every moment of the styling process. Known for my fun and approachable energy, I create an experience that feels both exciting and effortless, making every bride feel comfortable, confident, and truly celebrated.

I believe that finding your dress should feel just as special as the day itself and I love being a trusted guide and friend through such a meaningful milestone. With an eye for detail and a passion for problem-solving, I am dedicated to helping each bride discover a look that feels authentically her.

When I'm not in the salon, Shannon enjoys spending time at the pool and staying creative through pottery. 

Hi, I’m Elena. Born and raised in Annapolis, Maryland, I've always been a true people person with a love for building connections and making others feel their absolute best. I thrive on meeting new people and being part of life’s most exciting moments - which is exactly what drew me to the bridal industry.

As someone pursuing a nursing degree, serving others has always been at the heart of who I am, and bridal has been the perfect place to bring that passion to life in a special way. Whether I’m caring for others through nursing or helping a bride find the dress that makes her feel beautiful, confident, and completely herself, I love being part of moments that truly matter.

As a bridal stylist, my goal is to make dresses feel exciting, personal, and stress-free. I know how meaningful this season of life is, and I’m passionate about creating a fun, welcoming experience where every bride feels heard. I believe finding your dress should feel just as special as wearing it. I can’t wait to meet you and help bring your bridal vision to life! 

Hi, I’m Bethany! I’ve been married for 10 years to my best friend, and we have two beautiful daughters who keep life fun, busy, and full of love. I’ve spent years in the wedding industry doing everything from designing custom stationery, creating wedding day signage, serving for a local catering company — and through every role, one thing has always stayed the same: I absolutely love connecting with people and being part of their biggest moments.

The very first time I shadowed as a bridal consultant, I cried for the bride out of pure excitement before she even said yes to the dress. Apparently, I’m just someone who cries at the beauty of love between complete strangers — what can I say, I’m a hopeless romantic through and through!

Being part of such a once-in-a-lifetime memory for brides truly means the world to me, and honestly, the thought of helping you find THE ONE could absolutely bring me to tears too.

I’m here for a good time and great energy, — so if you need to happy cry, laugh too hard, or do a little wobble in the fitting room, girl, we will wobble together! My goal is to make you feel celebrated, comfortable, beautiful, and completely yourself while we find the dress that makes your heart skip a beat.

Let’s make memories, have the best time, and find your dream dress together!

This is my first time working in bridal, and I absolutely love it! I am originally from Texas, but being a Coast Guard wife has opened many doors for travel, and this is our very first station. I have found Annapolis to be absolutely amazing, with all of its history and Maryland pride. Working at One Bridal has allowed me to train under the most professional, knowledgeable, and caring bridal stylists the DMV has to offer, which in turn has grown my passion for helping brides feel gorgeous and find “the one”! 

My background in education has given me skills to help others succeed and do their best, and now I am able to use those same skills to help brides look and feel their best for the big day. Whatever you envision your dream dress being, I aspire not only to help you find it, but to also help you feel your most beautiful and bridal self. Your bridal appointment should be the most fun and relaxed part of planning your wedding, and I would love to be a part of it!
