IT’S A DATE – know before you go
01 Book Appointment
Our Chicago flagship isn’t a typical bridal shop - it’s the design home of Alyssa Kristin. We exclusively carry our own collection, so every gown you try on is an AK original, crafted right here in Chicago. Appointments are limited - pre-select your gowns, bring your favorite people, and get ready for an unforgettable experience!
02 The AK Experience
You’ll enjoy a private appointment tailored just for you. Your stylist will guide you through the styles you’ve selected, walk you through fit and customizations, and help you explore all the possibilities. It’s an intimate, thoughtful experience - in the very space where each gown was dreamed up and brought to life.
03 The Gown
When you know, you know - and we’ll make sure it’s perfect! From sizing to custom changes, we’ll tailor every detail to fit you just right. Every gown is made to order, so you can feel confident and cared for from the moment you say yes to the moment you walk down the aisle.
