Our GBC Team

Team Hero

“We believe in dressing up in gorgeously impractical things like tulle, sequins, sparkles and lace”

 

At Gown Boutique of Charleston, we are obsessed with everything bridal--we are crazy about fashion, live for special moments and believe in happily ever after. A wedding is one of the most important days in a couples life, and we feel so honored to be a part of it. We cherish the relationships we build throughout the process. We start by getting to know our brides — their style, their wedding theme, their dress likes and dislikes. Then, we get to work, hand-selecting gowns from our curated collection of designers. Our favorite moment is watching a bride’s face light up because she has found THE ONE! That’s when we pop the champagne and throw confetti!

 

GBC has been a Charleston leader in the bridal experience for over 15 years. Janet took over the reigns in 2018 with a spirited passion to bring a relaxed, fun and memorable shopping experience to every bride that walks through the GBC doors. She envisioned every bride enjoying a once in a lifetime experience--which now defines the GBC difference.



 

Janet

Janet

Owning a bridal boutique was something I have always dreamed of. I remember sketching wedding dresses as a teenager, I have always loved all things bridal. I married my high school sweetheart and have two beautiful daughters. We are Northern Virginia transplants, but found our true home when we landed in Charleston 10 years ago. In addition to our girls, we have two fur babies that I am o.b.s.e.s.s.e.d with! When I am not at the store, you can find me watching dog videos at home, sipping on Starbucks, or binging on Netflix. I LOVE my job and still have to pinch myself to know it's real...I get to be a part of so many special moments! I'm the luckiest girl in the world!

I am a southern girl to the core, raised in North Carolina and followed my dream job to Charleston. Bridal and weddings are in  my veins, I grew up watching my parents make brides' dreams come true with their catering business.  I have a passion for brides, wedding gowns and all things bridal. I adore my sweet golden doodle, Miss Winnie. I am also recently engaged and can not wait to marry my fiance in a gown I designed!  I love working with brides and helping them find their perfect gown, it is truly what I was born to do!

After saying "Yes" to the dress at GBC, I knew I had to be a part of not only the bridal industry, but the GBC team! I took a risk changing careers but it is the best decision I have ever made.  Well maybe the econd best, next to marrying my hubby!  If you are looking for me on my days off,  you'll find me hanging with my new hubby and loving on our fur babies.  I am an outdoor girlie and love hiking and exploring the low country.  I am still in awe that I get to be a part of so many brides' special day, it is a feeling that never gets old.

Kayla

Kayla

Originally from Pennsylvania, Kayla brings northern charm and southern warmth to every bride she meets. She is a newlywed herself and she and her husband followed their hearts to Charleston, where they’re now living their happily ever after with their three adorable rescue pups: Bentley, Koda, and Finn (aka the real stars of the household!).

Before joining the bridal world, Kayla spent years as a passionate teacher, but deep down, she always knew her heart belonged in bridal. Helping brides find the one is her true calling, and she brings patience, heart, and a whole lot of happy energy to every appointment. When she’s not making magic in the boutique, you’ll find her reading by the beach, going for a run, or cuddled up with her pack of pups.

 

 

Katie

Katie

Originally from sunny Central Florida, Katie now calls Charleston’s Lowcountry home, bringing just the right blend of warmth and East-Coast spark to our showroom. With a strong background in fashion sales and an innate eye for style, she fell in love with bridal the moment she stepped into the industry and has been elevating “yes!” moments ever since. Katie’s approach is equal parts professional insight and genuine enthusiasm. She listens carefully, curates thoughtfully, and celebrates each bride’s uniqueness, turning gown shopping into an experience as unforgettable as the wedding day itself. When she’s away from the boutique, Katie can be found exploring Charleston’s latest restaurants, breezing through a good novel, or spending quality time with her girlfriends and her mini doodle, Lulu. Her goal is simple: ensure every bride feels seen, supported, and absolutely stunning.

Emily

Born and raised right here in Charleston, Emily truly has bridal in her blood. As the daughter of our boutique owner, she’s grown up in the world of weddings and brings a deep, behind-the-scenes understanding of what it takes to create unforgettable bridal experiences. Currently a senior in college, Emily balances her studies with her passion for fashion and content creation. With a sharp eye for aesthetics and a natural flair for storytelling, she plays a key role in bringing our brand to life on social media, capturing the magic of our brides, our gowns, and our team in every post. Outside the boutique, Emily is often found walking her sweet doodle, Gibbs (her absolute pride and joy), going to the gym, or binge-watching her favorite shows. Whether she’s behind the camera or helping style a bride, Emily brings creativity, energy, and heart to everything she does.
