Ramona Southard
Salon Owner
“I got into bridal because I wanted to lean into the creative aspect of my personality. Along the way, I fell in love with what this entire industry is about and all the bad-ass women I have met along the way! I cannot imagine not being surrounded by these strong, independent and empowered women – it is one of the things that I want to instill daily in my young daughter: take on the world, do what makes you happy and be yourself every step of the way!”

SALON MANAGER
“I got started in bridal by a stroke of luck. I was newly engaged and love fashion so it just seemed like the perfect marriage (no pun intented)! I could connect to brides because I knew exactly what they were going through. Now that I’m married, I can still relate but show brides a different perspective. I love helping brides find a gorgeous dress that makes them feel beautiful and instills confidence needed for their big day!”

BRIDAL STyLIST
“I got started in bridal nearly six years ago. It initially sounded like a fun work environment, but quickly turned into a passion. I found that watching brides fall in love with dresses, and subsequently love themselves on a deeper level, was an honor to be part of. I want women to feel empowered to love what they love, boldly and fearlessly. It just so happens that the wedding dress is a catalyst for that.

Sarah Gociu
BRIDAL STYLIST
“I love meeting all the brides and getting a glimpse into their very personal stories. I feel privileged that they would open to door to such a vulnerable and special moment in their lives. I started in bridal because I had a good friend who worked for Ramona at the time and she was looking for someone to hire. I said “why not” and the rest is history. I would HOPE that someone would book an appointment with me because I love people and I love dresses”

Cynthia Tran
BRIDAL STYLIST
“I joined Love and Lace in hopes of filling a void I felt was missing in my life at the time. The bridal industry was completely new to me but, unbeknownst to myself, I fell in love with what happens behind the curtain. Wedding dress shopping can be scary and a vulnerable process. When I am in an appointment, I don’t view you as a bride; I see you for all that you are! I also see your insecurities, doubts and worry, but I just want to say “I got you, we’ll get through this together”!

I began my career in bridal while getting my degree in Fashion Merchandising. I interned in the alterations department at Kleinfeld’s in New York and fell in love with the industry. I started at Love and Lace four years ago and love the relaxed, uplifting and supportive environment that we provide to our brides. I thrive in high energy appointments and am passionate about helping brides find their confidence. I am a coffee connoisseur, yoga fanatic and lower of all things vintage”
