Our Story
Meet Stephanie
Founder & Owner of Khloe Mae Bridal
A lifelong lover of fashion, Stephanie began modeling as a teenager and quickly developed an eye for craftsmanship and quality.
That early love for design evolved into a passion for curation, traveling to places like Barcelona Bridal Fashion Week, France, and London to discover gowns and designers that can’t be found anywhere else in Michigan.
For Stephanie, Khloe Mae isn’t just a boutique; it’s a reflection of her lifelong love for people, fashion, and the art of helping every bride feel seen, celebrated, and completely herself.
Our mission has always been simple: to offer luxury with authenticity — meaningful gowns chosen for their story, beauty, and craftsmanship. Every collection at Khloe Mae is hand-selected to reflect that same balance of individuality and heart.
History
Story behind Khloe Mae Bridal
At just twenty years old, Stephanie opened the boutique in 2014 under its original name, Second Dance, with a vision to bring sustainability, originality, and heart into the formalwear world. What began as a way to give designer gowns a second life started with preowned prom and homecoming dresses, inspired by the belief that it was wasteful for beautiful gowns to only be worn once. The name Second Dance came from exactly that idea — allowing dresses to be loved, worn, and celebrated again.
Over the years, the boutique naturally evolved into something much bigger. As more brides began searching for styles that felt unique, elevated, and different from what was available locally, the focus slowly shifted more heavily into bridal.
About five years ago, the boutique expanded into new designer gowns alongside its curated pre-loved collection.
Stephanie’s growing love for travel and bridal fashion opened the door to sourcing exclusive styles and designers from around the world. As the bridal side of the business rapidly grew, the name Second Dance no longer reflected everything the boutique had become. The store was eventually rebranded as Khloe Mae Bridal, representing a new chapter while still honoring the heart behind where it all started.
Today, Khloe Mae Bridal has grown into one of West Michigan’s most unique bridal destinations, blending pre-loved treasures with exclusive designer collections while continuing to create a personalized and memorable experience for everyone who walks through the doors.
