Jan Patterson
Owner
For almost 20 years I have had the privilege of doing what I love. This business is who I am, I love the ability to bring dreams to life and solve any problem that comes my way. Owning this business has never been about the money for me, it has always been about the client and their dream. I couldn’t imagine doing anything else.
Leah McClure

Sophia Louissaint
Outreach/Employee Relations Manager
It brings me so much joy to be a part of our brides love story. BRB also allows me to share our passion of giving back to the community by planning volunteer outings for our staff and funding programs that are near and dear to our hearts such as Jafco, Junior Achievement, Broward County Animal Care and Tee’s Food Pantry.

I love being able to work with brides from the beginning to the end of their journey to the perfect dress. Being in alterations helps me to ensure every bride feels beautiful and confident on her wedding day. I am also a huge fan of accessorizing a brides look and all the finishing touches.

Abby Wagner
Senior Bridal Stylist
What I love about being a bridal stylist is getting to be a part of a very special day and creating the connections with the brides and the gown. Seeing a brides face light up when she tries “the one” gives the feeling of making a dream come true.
Jennifer Lynch
Senior Stylist
I love meeting new brides and their families and helping them find their dream dress. To help a bride feel like she is the most special person in the world on her wedding day means everything to me.
Angelina Vivace
Bridal Stylist
I love being able to make a brides dream come to reality. Getting to be a part of one of the most important days of a person’s life and helping them feel beautiful is a feeling like no other. Having worked as a wardrobe stylist and creative director I wouldn’t always get to feel the emotions of my clients or see the end results until months later. Now I get to be a part of it all!
Mimi Marion
Bridal Stylist
I love encountering different brides with different personalities that all share the same excitement to find their perfect dress!
Victoria Anderson
Bridal Stylist
Working at a bridal salon means so much to me. Having a place that feels like home to me and getting to share that with the brides is such a special opportunity. I love creating art on my own time. Getting to paint a picture through fitting brides and help create the most special day in their lives is breathtaking for me. I have always been a stylist, but becoming a bridal stylist is where I was truly meant to be.
Kachina Daniel
Bridal Stylist
Being a stylist is more to me than just picking out pretty dresses. Its about making my bride feel special and beautiful. I cherish the emotional connection that often forms during this process as I get to know a brides story, her dream and style.
Kim Gallo
Head Receptionist
I love seeing the look on a brides face when she walks through the doors. It’s like walking into a bridal wonderland where dreams come true. Everyone that works here is like family to me and I believe our clients feel the same, it’s a great place to be!
Kenza Kerfati

BRB feels like home. I love the team I work with , the environment I’m in and of course interacting with all the gorgeous brides!

Getting to come into work everyday and knowing that I play a part in helping a bride feel special is not just satisfying as a career but personally too. Working with a team that feels like family is a big bonus!
Ree Thorp
Back end operations
I love BRB because you don’t just feel like an employee, you feel like family. I get to talk to brides everyday as the gowns come in and alterations begin and end, it keeps me connected to them. Getting to try on gowns and help with our social media is a fun bonus.
Suzan Carroll
Accounting
After 50 years in accounting I retired in 2019….but not really. As Jans mother I was informed I could never really retire, so I happily work with this group. What started in 2005 as a mom helping her kid with her accounting work has blossomed into a second act for me.
Bethy Diaz
Bridal Seamstress
I am proud to say I work at BRB. It has always been a passion of mine to dress beautiful brides and see their smiles at the end. To see them not only truly in love with their gowns but with themselves, it is an honor for me. I have been a seamstress more than 40 years and worked with many couture designers that I loved but this is my home.
Sandy Petrie

I love working as a seamstress and helping brides perfect their gowns. It is an honor to work with all the beautiful brides.

I love sewing, it is my passion. I started sewing when I was a child making dresses for my dolls by hand. I learned from my mom and eventually went to school for dressmaking. For over 40 years I have been making women feel beautiful.

Working at BRB is so amazing! I work to maintain all of our samples and keep everything looking it’s best for our beautiful brides to try on. I truly feel like part of the family here.
