A new consignment store Fabulous Frocks Boston—now open in the Westin Copley Place—brides can find gowns from designers like Kenneth Pool, Monique Lhuillier, Carolina Herrera, Watters, and more, for 30 percent to 70 percent off retail prices (bonus: brides who select the hotel as their venue get an additional 20 percent off).

Owners Amanda and TJ Baudanza realize that some brides may bristle at the word “consignment,” but they want to put them at ease. “When all is said and done, we are able to offer brides their dream dresses for a huge discount without sacrificing the one-on-one luxury shopping experience and environment,” says TJ. In addition to gowns, the boutique stocks bridesmaid dresses and accessories.

And, the story behind the shop is special: TJ’s serious bout with colon cancer taught him and his wife how important it is to follow your dreams—this enthusiasm for life, along with Amanda’s passion for fashion and cosmetics inspired the couple to open the local franchise of the Charleston, South Carolina-based Fabulous Frocks.

By appointment, 10 Huntington Ave., Boston, 617-536-0951, fabulousfrocksbridal.com/boston.
