About

EVOKE: the bridal experience is a body-positive wedding attire boutique located in Pearland, Texas. Founder Hayley Orr is passionate about creating a welcoming environment where every client can realize their true beauty and find their dream gown. Hayley worked at wedding dress shops for several years, where she often witnessed soon-to-be-newlyweds leave in tears when they couldn’t fit into the too-small samples. She was inspired by this experience to create her own salon that features sample gowns in sizes ranging up to 32. All team members are trained at The Equality Institute and The Body Positive in order to provide the most bespoke, knowledge, and stylish experience.

Services Offered
EVOKE: the bridal experience works with brands that are equally committed to their philosophy of inclusivity, including, Justin Alexander, Sincerity, Adore by Justin Alexander, WToo and Pronovias. The stylists believe that there is no “one size fits all” and proudly carry dresses in all sizes and styles. The boutique features private changing suites for the bride, complimentary champagne, and a fully personalized customer service experience.

A memorable experience

My day with Evoke was a dream come true! These girls went above and beyond for me. I am forever going to remember this day for the rest of my life. I seriously love these two so much. They really listened on what I wanted and delivered something remarkable. They pulled off something I know other people would not of done. I am forever grateful. I had so much fun and they made sure all the important people in my life were on virtually so they could be apart of this big moment. Thank you Evoke! I recommend this to anyone that wants an amazing, personable experience.

Wedding dress

They were great at helping me find exactly what I was looking for. They went above and beyond for me trying on and it wasn’t rushed. I would definitely recommend using them.

Stellar place

I knew right away I was going to love Evoke when I pulled my car up and saw plus size models in their window. YAAAASSSSS. I had the honor (and absolute pleasure) of being their first bridal appt for 2021. Hayley (the owner) is SO KNOWLEDGEABLE, body inclusive and honest. Tabitha, my stylist, listened to what I was looking for, pulled similar wedding gowns that were similar to my interests and made this whole experience so much FUN. Tabitha, you made me feel like a dang wedding princess.

I had already visited 5 other bridal places before this and I can tell you, their customer service is top notch. Their price range is AMAZING. All the dresses I loved were within my 1300-2000 range. Hayley even recommended me cheaper options to customize my gown. So many bridal places kept pushing me to have the designer “customize” my dress and Hayley discussed much cheaper options that would do the exact same thing.

Even though I didn’t buy my gown just yet, I KNOW that I will be coming back to Evoke. I would recommend them, 10/10. Hands down.

hey, brides! I’m Hayley Orr, the founder of EVOKE: the bridal experience ❤️

like a lot of others, I grew up watching say yes to the dress and loved not only the dresses, but also witnessing all the happy moments and wonderful memories created (who doesn’t?!) but I honestly thought it would just give me ideas for when i got married in the future. little did I know i’d be offered a stylist job in college after helping my sister find her wedding dress and immediately fall in love with the entire industry 🥰


I struggled with an eating disorder and body dysmorphia for 7+ years growing up, so I understand how hard it can be to accept your body and feel good about yourself, especially in the society that we live in.

I love helping brides, and I love being more than just a bridal stylist, but also a confidante and a friend to guide you through your bridal shopping journey. I truly believe that when you look good, you feel good, and I can’t wait to help you find that gown that makes you feel like everything you’ve dreamt you would on your wedding day 💖

Lead Stylist

hello there, bridal beauties! 💐my name is Tabitha, and I’m the lead bridal stylist here at EVOKE: the bridal experience

but I’d prefer that you think of me as your new fairy godmother come to bring your dreams to fruition🧚‍♀️

ever since I was a little girl I’ve been enamored by magic, or more specifically, the magic that you find in the smallest details of life’s moments, so I dedicate every day to manifesting those powerful little instances in whatever way possible 🔮

as the lead bridal stylist at EVOKE, my job (alongside assisting you in finding the dress of your dreams) is to help you remember that lightness you get in your chest from just the simple action of twirling in the perfect gown, or the aching in your cheeks from that unfaltering grin you cant help but wear as you step in front of the mirror and finally see the reflection of exactly who you want to be.

(I know how difficult it can be to figure out completely who that is, but together at EVOKE, I know we can do it) 💕

I can’t wait to brew up some badass memories with you ladies, theydies, and gents. let’s make some magic ✨
