FAQs:
ARE APPOINTMENTS REQUIRED?
Appointments are required. Our goal is to help you find your dream dress. For that reason, if you want to try on dresses, we do require an appointment. This way we can ensure that there will be a dedicated expert stylist working one-on-one with you for your full appointment. If you need a same day appointment, please call the store at 479-966-2221.
HOW MUCH TIME WILL I NEED TO SHOP?
We allot 60 minutes for every bride, and our appointments are scheduled back-to-back. We find this is enough time to try on dresses, say “I do” to your dress and celebrate with your most important guests.
WHO SHOULD I BRING WITH ME TO MY APPOINTMENT?
Bring the key people that you cannot make this decision without. For some, this may mean shopping alone and for others it may be a couple of loved ones. When you find your dress, if there is someone you don’t want to miss that moment who can’t join you, we can FaceTime them! We like to stick with the rule of thumb of Bride +3 as we have limited space in our boutique.
DO YOU HAVE A CANCELLATION FEE? WHAT IF I NEED TO RESCHEDULE?
We require a 24 hour cancellation notice due to our limited availability. We typically have a wait list of brides who would love to schedule an appointment with us, so if you are unable to make it to your designated appointment time, please call the shop, and we would be more than happy to help you reschedule. If you cancel or reschedule less than 24 hours before your appointment or you do not show up, there is a $50 cancellation fee.
WHAT SIZE SAMPLES WILL I BE ABLE TO TRY ON?
Our bridal gowns range from bridal size 0-26. We use clips and have tricks up our sleeves to be able to assist brides of all sizes.
WHAT ABOUT ALTERATIONS?
We do not have an in-house seamstress, however, we have a list of bridal specific alterations experts we recommend.
WHAT FORMS OF PAYMENT ARE ACCEPTED?
We accept Mastercard, Visa, Discover, American Express and cash only.

MEET THE OWNERS
From strangers, to coworkers, to best friends and now also business partners, magic happens when these two put their heads together.
In 2018, both Carly and Stacey joined Tesori’s staff as part time bridal consultants. They quickly realized how well they worked in tandem with each other, and could nearly always pick up right where the other left off, without anything said! They both adored working with brides, and absorbed as much information about our designers and dresses as they could, eager to always learn and know more to better serve each bride who walked through Tesori’s door.
As time went on, Carly got married (actually at Tesori’s Founder, Erin’s, house due to COVID) and moved to Chicago with her husband, Mason, where she started working in bridal wholesale in 2020, while Stacey excelled as Tesori’s Store Manager. Stacey later joined Carly in bridal wholesale in 2022, where they once again got to work together and strengthen their friendship, working partnership, designer relationships, and bridal skillsets.
With both of them now having backgrounds in operations, logistics, sales, and management in bridal retail and wholesale - it was truly a full circle, dream opportunity to be able to become Tesori’s Co-Owners in 2024. After getting back into the groove at Tesori and working with our local brides, Stacey and Carly saw a need in our community for an additional way to shop bridal gowns. In 2026, the inception for their Off the Rack location was created for those brides with a quicker turnaround time and those wanting couture gowns at a discounted price point.
Stacey lives in Johnson full time in her mid century modern condo. She is a season ticket holder in the Fall and is always ready to Call Those Hogs! (Even when the Razorbacks aren’t having the best season…) and is often cheering them on at many other UofA sport games. Stacey volunteers with Grateful Vase, a local non-profit that is near and dear to her heart. She strikes the perfect balance of creative, yet organized. Stacey is driven, has a “get stuff done” kind of attitude, and will always show up and be there when you need her - no questions asked. She is the queen of spreadsheets, notebooks, and having whatever you need written down and saved somewhere!
Carly, after 6 years in downtown Chicago, now lives in Springdale with her husband Mason, and two kitties, Ferb and Pip. After many years of city living, she is enjoying the close knit, sweet community driven and homey feel of NWA. Carly loves to read (often fantasy, romance…. or both!) and enjoys plane hopping and experiencing other places. Though she has a fiery spirit, she takes its intensity and expels it through compassion, kindness, and integrity for her craft, brides, and loved ones. With her open-mindedness and love for efficiency, you can be rest assured she will conquer anything that is thrown her way swiftly with grace and passion.
Most likely to: be spotted together, when not at Tesori, either at Onyx or Theo’s Happy Hour
