As most of you know, Nicole Bridal & Formal took an exciting leap in September of 2023 by opening a second location in Manhattan. We entered this exciting chapter by working closely with trusted designers to forge partnerships that allow us to offer brides an experience in New York City they have not had before.

Julie Vino, one of our most popular couture wedding dress designers, worked closely with us to develop a section of our boutique to represent her line as a flagship salon in the United States. Since opening, we have dazzled brides in Manhattan with a selection of gowns unlike anything they’ve seen in the city so far.

Now, we have even more delightful news to announce: a partnership with Claire Pettibone to create an East Coast flagship for her bridal line in our New York boutique. Claire Pettibone has been making bridal dreams come true since 1994. Her unique style of combining romantic laces, color, and ultra-feminine silhouettes is a style often imitated but never duplicated. Her authenticity is delicately illustrated in every gown, which is why she is one of the most sought-after bridal designers in the nation.

Known for her Castle in Los Angeles as her flagship salon, Claire also knows there is always a demand for her silhouettes for brides on the East Coast as well. This spring her partnership with our Manhattan location of Nicole Bridal will offer New York brides the luxury of having the Claire Pettibone experience without the flight to California.

To our future Claire brides who are likely over-the-moon excited about this news: we can’t wait to meet you at the Penthouse.
