Mignonette is proud to be the only Midwest showroom for Alyssa Kristin Bridal, ReDefined Designs, and Due Sorelle. Brides can browse gown samples from our carefully-chosen designers, make an appointment to have owner Kpoene’ Kofi-Nicklin custom-design a Mignonette gown just for you, or check out the collection of veils, headpieces, and wedding sashes.  Mignonette also specializes in alterations, styling, and vendor recommendations.
