About

The Boutique and Sewing Studio is located in lovely East Montpelier, Vermont.  "So much of my work involves sewing that it made more sense to combine the two aspects of the business and still be in a convenient location for everyone."  Shaline's love and skill at sewing has brought many clients to her shops over the last 33 years. While no longer custom sewing or altering dresses Shaline has been spending her time creating her own one-of-a-kind creations available here on this site along with other in-stock new designer and consignment gowns and accessories.

Shaline Bridal’s current location is surrounded by beautiful flower gardens and has enchanted her brides for over a decade.  The boutique/sewing studio is fully stocked with a wonderful selection of designer wedding gowns, headpieces and veils, jewelry, and all kinds of accessories to be listed on this website soon!  Many of the gowns and accessories are custom made by Shaline.  While no longer accepting any more consignment wedding gowns there is a small selection still of once loved wedding gowns, bridesmaid dresses, prom, formal wear and accessories have been professionally cleaned and prepared for sale on-line.

Shaline Bridal does continue to offer the ever popular WEDDING GOWN CLEANING & PRESERVATION service for all gowns in partnership with The Wedding Gown Preservation Company.  Brides wanting their gowns and accessories to be cleaned and preserved are welcome to write or call and book a time to drop off and Shaline will take care of the rest. The kits where you package and ship your own gown to be cleaned and preserved by The Wedding gown Preservation Company are also available for pick up or delivery. The kits make a wonderful wedding or bridal shower gift as well.

About Shaline...

Shaline is an award winning Couture Designer and a graduate of L'Académie des Couturiers Canadiens in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. After her graduation and internships in some of the leading clothing, fabric, and Bridal shops in Canada, Shaline began accepting commissions for custom designed wedding gowns and opened her own boutique.

Since 1990 Shaline has been designing and sewing wedding gowns and delighting brides with her exquisite work and attention to detail. Starting out in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada, Shaline brings her years of expertise to East Montpelier, Vermont, USA.

In June of 2007, surrounded by the fanfare of the culmination of Montpelier, Vermont's second annual Fashion Week celebration, Shaline opened her bridal boutique at 32 State Street.  In December of 2008, Shaline did it again!  She transformed 27 State Street, another, much larger space into what some called a "fairy tale boutique". Shaline has once again performed her magic in July 2010 and has combined The Boutique & Sewing Studio in one picturesque location surrounded by gardens and rolling hills in East Montpelier!

"So much of my work involves sewing that it made more sense to combine the two aspects of the business and still be in a convenient location for everyone."  Shaline's love and skill at sewing has brought many clients to her beautiful shops for over 30 years.
