I opened Union Bridal in 2015 after noticing a distinct gap in the bridal market in Vancouver. Offering carefully curated designer gowns from around the world that weren’t available elsewhere in Canada, and a unique, intimate and tailored experience for brides, Union Bridal pushed the boundaries of the traditional bridal aesthetic, and transformed the way women shop for wedding dresses in Vancouver. After an incredible four years, my business partner and I sold the company.
