The Bridal Boutique and Umee Honolulu present a stylish summer event for brides and their fashionable sidekick…the bridesmaid. “Happily Wear Me After” will feature a line up of uniquely styled Umee Honolulu dresses from its bridal collection.

Locally made and uniquely chic, Umee dresses are sure to make every bridesmaid happy and every bride satisfied since all pieces are priced right for the value conscious budget.

This one-night event will take place on Thursday, June 28 from 6:30 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. Seating is limited so RSVPs are being taken from now until Monday, June 25. Call The Bridal Boutique at 808-597-8893 or emailinfo@bridalboutiquehonolulu.com to reserve your spot. Pre-orders for the featured looks will be taken during the event.
