Before we’re stylists, we’re people first.

Naturally, life looks a little different for each of us, and that’s something we want to honor and share.

In 2026, we’re continuing to lead with intention, care, and connection, always going above and beyond for our brides.

Here’s to what’s ahead. ✨

You know that traditional wedding dress you pictured yourself walking down the aisle in when you were 10?

Well… we found her 🤍

With elegant long sleeves, a refined high neckline, and a softly structured A-line silhouette, this gown is the definition of classic bridal beauty. Paired with a full lace veil that drapes effortlessly and adds just the right amount of drama, it feels nostalgic yet completely current, a winter bride’s dream that proves timeless never goes out of style.

Our winter wonderland ✨

There’s something extra special about visiting the shop this time of year. Warm lights, quiet moments, and a space that feels especially cozy.

Our experience is always the same, but weekday appointments tend to feel a little slower. There’s less noise, fewer distractions, and more time to breathe, explore, and take the pressure off yourself as you find the dress that feels right.

If a quieter, more relaxed visit sounds like what you’re looking for, we would love to welcome you in this winter. 🤍

Did you know that our senses are deeply tied to memory?

From the very beginning, every White Carpet experience is thoughtfully designed to create moments you’ll never forget. From your customized playlist, one you can later play on your wedding day and be instantly taken back to the moment you found your gown, to the quiet, meaningful time spent with your nearest and dearest.

With three hours of exclusive access to the entire boutique, you’re invited to slow down, feel completely cared for, and truly soak in every second. We pride ourselves on giving each bride our full attention, creating an environment where you feel comfortable, confident, and celebrated every step of the way. By the end of the experience, we’re not just your stylists, we’re your biggest cheerleaders and new best friends.

Thank you for trusting us to guide you to your dream wedding gown, and a huge thank you to the photographers who captured these unforgettable moments. 🤍

What’s better than a wedding on Block Island? A wedding weekend on Block Island! 🤍

A beautiful weekend filled with love and every one of Nicole’s bridal looks fueled by us.

She came to us last year as the very first stop on her bridal shopping journey, and throughout each visit, we helped her curate the full wedding weekend wardrobe.

From an little white dress for her welcome party at The National Hotel, to an elegant look for her rehearsal dinner at The Sullivan House, and finally saying “I do” in her wedding gown paired with a Aditi veil on her wedding day at The Sullivan House, Nicole truly found it all.

We couldn’t be happier to have been part of every celebration and outfit along the way. Nicole, we are so excited for you and your husband and wish you a lifetime of love and happiness! 🤍

For nearly 22 years, we’ve walked alongside brides through one of the biggest moments of their lives! 🤍

And what we’ve learned is this: our experience doesn’t end when the appointment does. Our brides don’t just walk out our doors and move on. They become part of us. We’re here long after the gown is chosen, whether that means answering questions, offering reassurance, or simply being a calm place to land when wedding planning feels overwhelming.

Because at the end of the day, who we are is defined by the experience our brides carry with them when they leave. We know that our brides have many choices when it comes to selecting where they shop. We are eternally grateful for the brides who have chosen us for the past 2 decades and we can’t wait to continue to serve brides with our special brand of TWD magic for years to come. 🍾
