DIDI
Senior Bridal Stylist & Buyer / Website Manager
I have been with Trudys family for over 11 years. For the last 2 years, I have joined Steven's buying team and enjoy bringing new styles and trends to the store for the Brides to get excited about. My biggest thrill is to bring the Brides' vision to life by learning about their style/personality and finding a gown that fits them perfectly. I always challenge myself to beat their best dress by choosing what I call a "wild-card dress" that's unexpected and most often ends up being their perfect "I Do" dress.
MELINDA
Senior Bridal Stylist & Buyer / Ordering & Accessory Specialist
I just completed my 5-year anniversary at Trudys. I am a total "bling girl" and love to help my Brides find that sparkle in their gown, whether it's simple or bedazzled. I especially love adding that perfect accessory to complete their bridal look. My motto is "Go big or Go Home!"
