The bride is the focal point of any wedding, but you want your bridesmaids to look great as well.

SPARKLE specializes in styles that are flattering to brides and attendants in sizes 14 to 30, but the gorgeous and stylish dresses look great on any figure. In keeping with the salon's ebony and ivory design palette, special occasion samples are generally black, but are available in a wide range of colors and tones. Prices range from $175 to $300, with no extra charge for sizing options or colors. Best of all, the warm and inviting shop offers dresses that a bridesmaid truly can wear again on other occasions.

Having beautiful, top-of-the-line outfits for the bridal party does not mean you have to spend big bucks. The original House of Fashion has been in Sacramento for years, but this "outlet" version offers great deals and significantly better customer service. While small, the shop has a good selection of off-the-rack styles and customizable samples, generally in the range of $110 to $225. Special orders take an average of 12 – 14 weeks. For smaller bridal parties or other special occasions, check out the $20 – yes, $20 – clearance section of lovely single dresses.
