Lizzie as our Gummy Bear Mom might be our favourite mom character yet. šŸ„¹ She may have been *lightly* inspired by our very own Mama G.

Because as much as we love our toxic mom series, the truth isā€¦ 99.9% of moms are actually like Lizzie. Theyā€™re just SO excited to be part of your wedding dress journey, hype you up, and support you every step of the way.

Bring your mom, your besties, your aunties, whoever makes you feel your best and letā€™s find your dress together on a budget, and without the stress.

First of all, alterations are totally normal. Our most common alterations are hems and bustles, because every bride and nearlywed is a different height, even when the rest of the gown fits them perfectly.

Starting next year, our seamstresses will be exclusively available to brides who purchase their gown from NKIN or our sister store, Always. šŸ¤

Why? Because weā€™re BUSY! šŸ˜‚ As our stores continue to grow, we want to make sure we have enough availability and time to take care of every NKIN and Always bride who comes through our doors.

So if youā€™re an NKIN or Always bride, donā€™t worry weā€™ve got you from ā€œYES!ā€ to wedding day.

Everything Iā€™m thankful foršŸ¤+ Frank, who is too busy greeting brides to be photographed šŸ¶

Sometimes your mom, family, auntiesā€¦ just donā€™t get you when youā€™re wedding dress shopping. šŸ˜­ Thatā€™s okay. Theyā€™re trying their best.

But we get you.

Your NKIN girlies are here to be your biggest hype girls, translate the ā€œI donā€™t know what I like, but I know I donā€™t like THATā€ into actual dress options, and help you find the one that feels like YOU.

All while working with your budget, your timeline, and your vision. āœØ

Consider us your wedding dress shopping besties. šŸ’…šŸ»

WHYYYYYYYYYY

We're vibing with our Bride and she's trying on the cutest dresses and then some family member has to ruin in with "Can we get something more flattering?"

ummm did we ask??

One of our biggest tips when going wedding dress shopping is bring people who will hype you up. You want to focus on how you like the dress & what makes you feel your best before you're worried about Aunt Susan saying it could flatter your body better.

Want the best hype girls? Book an appointment at NKIN

Why is our Sample Sale different?

Because weā€™re not just putting a handful of size 10ā€“12 gowns on sale and calling it a day.

Weā€™re putting EVERY SIZE from 4ā€“24 on sale, including brand-new styles.

The sale is still 3 weeks awayā€¦ and weā€™re already HALF SOLD OUT. So if youā€™ve been thinking about comingā€¦ this is your sign to stop waiting, cause we only do this once a year.

10/09/2026

Sometimesā€¦ we know itā€™s the one before you do.

And if we could actually say what weā€™re thinking during your appointment, THIS is what weā€™d say.

Because weā€™ve seen hundreds of brides find their dress, and sometimes the moment is so obvious to us that weā€™re internally screaming, ā€œGIRL. THIS IS IT.ā€

youā€™ve just gotta trust yourself
