What Is a Maggie Sottero Designer Event?

A Maggie Sottero Designer Event is essentially a Maggie Sottero trunk show, where participating Authorized Boutiques receive additional Maggie Sottero gowns that aren’t typically available in-store. These events allow you to try on a wider selection of styles, including new collections and boutique-exclusive samples.

The experience is much like a regular bridal appointment. You’ll work one-on-one with a Maggie expert to explore silhouettes, compare your favorites, and find the gown that feels like you. One of our favorite wedding dress shopping tips is to come with an open mind, since many brides end up falling in love with a style they never expected. Maggie Sottero bridal events are hosted throughout the year, making them a great opportunity to discover even more wedding dress options if you’re searching for a bridal trunk show near you.
