The Bliss Bridal Story
Every great love story begins with a moment of inspiration—and so did ours.
Bliss Bridal Salon was founded in 2008 by Wendy Holsomback, a lifelong lover of bridal fashion who believed that finding the dress should be just as meaningful as saying I do. When she got engaged, Wendy was disheartened by the lack of personalized, intimate bridal experiences available in the Fort Worth area. She realized that while gowns were plentiful, true connection, attention to detail, and space to savor the moment were missing.
She envisioned a place where brides wouldn’t feel rushed or overlooked, and where their families would feel seen and celebrated too. A place that felt both exclusive and welcoming. She even drew it all out—every detail of the space, every feeling she wanted to evoke—then tucked it away, waiting for the right time. (continued below.....)
"I was very apprehensive about wedding dress shopping, but Bliss Bridal Salon and my consultant Michelle made the experience exciting and memorable. Michelle listened intently to my insecurities and chose gowns that made me feel beautiful. Michelle made sure that I was always comfortable and that I did not feel pressured. In the end I chose a gown that I would never have envisioned looking good in, but Michelle's knowledge and expertise led me to the perfect dress." - Stephanie O
The moment it all changed.
That moment came unexpectedly while shopping for baby shower invitations for a dear friend. As she stood in line, she felt a quiet, undeniable nudge in her spirit—a still, small voice reminding her that now was the time. Wendy believes it was God planting the seed in her heart that had been waiting to grow.
She got back in the car, turned to her then-boyfriend (now husband of 16 years), and said, “We’re in the wrong business.” When he asked what business they should be in, she simply said, “I want to open the bridal store.”
They drove across the street, sketched the concept on a napkin at a local restaurant, and six months later—Bliss Bridal Salon opened its doors. (continued below...)
The dream was built.
From day one, Bliss was built with purpose: to create unforgettable moments. Not just for brides, but for their mothers, sisters, best friends, and loved ones who walk through the journey with them. It’s about more than dresses—it’s about memories.
And Wendy’s commitment? It’s unmatched. She even worked the morning of her own wedding day, helping two brides find their dream gowns before walking down the aisle herself. That’s the heart of Bliss: a do-everything-for-the-bride environment, where every bride is worth going above and beyond for. (continued below...)
Bliss Bridal Salon is the region’s most highly sought-after Bridal Experience. Our sole purpose is to
“Offer more than Wedding Gowns, we create Experiences”.
It is our passion to cherish the life moments that our brides and their families share with us, deliver exceptional service, couture gowns, empowering support and provide these passions with the most well-trained Stylists to lead these experiences. Above all, every facet of our operations is to support and to create once in a lifetime moment for each and every client.
Where are they now?
The dear friend she was shopping for that day? She’s now one of the salon’s social media managers. Wendy’s husband, who was there from the very beginning, still works full-time alongside her. Bliss has always been—and continues to be—a true family-owned and operated labor of love.
Seventeen years later, Bliss has become the gold standard in bridal shopping across Texas. Brides travel from all over to experience the warmth, connection, and care that Bliss stylists bring to every appointment. We believe every family member deserves to be part of the moment—even the furry ones. We’ve even invited a bride’s golden retriever to be part of her gown reveal, because creating meaningful memories is what we do best.
And perhaps what touches our hearts most is how many of our brides are now lifelong friends. Some come back to show us their wedding photos, their babies, or even to shop for their daughter’s gown. One bride, who bought her dress on Christmas Eve, still stays in touch to this day—nearly 16 years later.
At Bliss, we don’t just help brides find a dress—we become part of their story. Because every bride deserves her moment of bliss, and we’re honored to be part of it—every step of the way.
