About

We started Elegant Forever over 10 years ago based on the belief that there should be something in between fancy, over-priced bridal shops and discount bridal outlets. There should be a place where brides aren’t pressured to buy versus finding the perfect dress. And being practical about your budget shouldn’t mean you can’t find a wedding dress that makes you look beautiful. Most importantly, a bridal boutique where personalized service takes a front seat to the rushed and snooty service found at many wedding dress shops. We believe shopping for your wedding dress is the most important purchase of your life. And we feel fortunate to be part of your journey.

In 2016, we opened our location in Historic Downtown Frederick at 31 W Patrick Street. In November 2022, we expanded our boutique and moved to Urbana, Maryland. We are so excited about our new location and expanded onsite alterations. Our location in Urbana is convenient to Urbana, Frederick, Clariskburg, Germantown and other locations in the Maryland, Virginia and DC metro area.

Elegant Forever is a full-service couture bridal shop now located in the Urbana Market District! We provide in-house services such as dress cleaning and in-house alterations! We offer a beautiful collection of wedding dresses in a variety styles, sizes, fabrics and colors. Whether you are looking for a petite, curvy, bohemian (boho), or beach wedding dress, we are confident we can help you find the perfect dress!

Do yourself a favor and go to Elegant Forever Bridal Boutique!!!

I truly cannot say enough great things about Elegant Forever Bridal Boutique. We arrived and were so sweetly greeted by my bridal consultant, Laura. She made it feel like we were walking into an old friends house and made us feel so welcome. She pulled out a few dresses and was so happily receptive of what I did and didn’t like. She made as all laugh and really took the time to get to know me, my story, and my upcoming wedding.

Going into my first bridal dress appointment, I was nervous about how I would look and feel in a wedding gown. Laura made me feel so comfortable, and beautiful, continuously telling me how great I looked in each gown. She was so patient with me, allowing me to try on and re-try on multiple gowns, and was just as excited as I was when I found my gown. I left with a gown, and a friend, and will look back at this experience with so much happiness for the rest of my life.

I’m not only excited to go back to Elegant Forever Bridal to see my gown in all her glory, but to see Laura once again. She made the experience so magical. Laura, from the bottom of my heart, thank you thank you thank you.

Awesome Experience

Laura was amazing! She was so helpful and was so willing to get my dress taken care of. She gave me piece of mind when I had a wedding dress emergency.

Wonderful Range of Options and Pricing - Best in Frederick

I had a WONDERFUL experience at this shop last week. I called and spoke with Laura over the phone who seemed very knowledgable and welcoming. I easily made an appointment for Saturday (I would call in advance as their weekend appointments do fill up fast). During the appointment time, you have the entire shop to yourself and work with a consultant to try on dresses and find the right fit. I really appreciated the one on one experience and a true expert that can understand what looks and feels best. I searched a few designers ahead of time and their selection at the store carries some top designers which I was happily surprised to see.

One of their team members, Jovanna was really kind and helpful with me as I tried on so many dresses again and again. There wasn't pressure to buy something right away or purchase their other items they sell (veils, headpieces, under garments, soaps, candles). I actually left the appointment wanting to think over the options I had seen prior to visiting here. Laura made herself available to come back the following week to try on the dress again, which is what I needed to make the final decision on the dream wedding dress. Parking was easy and the staff again made me feel like I was part of the family.

I called six different bridal shops in Maryland and Washington, D.C. and this place was hands down the perfect balance on professionalism, price, and high quality dresses. I 100% recommend getting your dress here!
