VB: “David, how long have you been in the wedding industry and what led you to choose this career path”?

DT: ” I have been in the business for thirty years!” My grandfather owned a florist and my grandmother and aunt owned a bridal boutique, so it is my blood.”

VB: “Tell us about your new bridal collection, what gave you the idea”?

DT: ” I was in Indonesia when I had this idea for manufacturing a gown line, a line in which I could create the design elements. Now that I am father of two young girls, it changed my entire philosophy about a lot things. I wanted to spend more time with family, yet still create.”

VB: Your brand message is command your inner beauty;can you elaborate on this statement“?

DT: “Every bride is unique as is each wedding. It’s all about romance and elegance, you can enhance your inner beauty with each of the gowns in this collection. In this one collection, there is a gown to fit each unique bride’s personality.”

VB: “What trends can we expect to see for 2020 wedding gowns?”

DT: “Lots of texture, unique fabrics, layering and fabrics that allow for fluid movement are all playing a part in this year’s bridal trends”.

VB: ” What can we expect in the way of decor for weddings this year”?

DT:“今年是线条,密苏里州re artistic designs. Memorable events are more important than being over the top, “the less is more” philosophy, with a focus on elegant and sophisticated decor”.

VB: “Tell us about the story behind your “muse” dress in the collection, Cielo.”

DT: “Cielo meansheavenin Italian and is named for my 6 year old daughter. The dress, just like her, is over the top, dramatic and classic.”

VB: “It’s obvious that you and your husband, Joey, are naturals at parenting. How do you juggle your busy schedule with parenting”?

DT: “Family means everything and must come first. I make sure that I am present in my children’s lives when they are around. When they are not, is when I work. Joey and I work together, so one of us is with the children, when the other is not. We are very hands on with reading to our kids every night and helping with homework.”

VB: “You selected only 18 stores nationwide to carry your collection, what made you choose That’s My Dress Bridal in Fredericksburg, to be the only store in Virginia, DC and Maryland to have the line”?

DT: “I laid out a map of the USA and looked at areas with the demographics that would be a fit for the collection. I then searched for stores who would best represent the line in those areas, stores who would understand the vision and would have a team of experts in house that would understand the line and give personal attention to the brides trying on the dresses. More of the boutique type bridal salons across the country.”

VB: “What advice would you give to our Virginia brides when choosing a gown from this collection”?

DT: “Look at the full collection before deciding. Don’t judge the dress on the hanger. Try on each dress in the collection before making the final decision.”

We think it will be a very hard decision deciding on which dress you will end up buying, because each of these dresses are gorgeous!
