HERE’S ME—AT MY WEDDING IN FALL 2022, IN A (SUPER) VINTAGE GOWN BY JUDITH ANN CREATIONS, IN COASTAL CALIFORNIA.

I started Playdate after having one heck of a time finding this dress, and having to order multiple dresses online—sight unseen—to find the right fit for my special day.

Being a single mom and public school teacher at the time of my wedding, I also wanted to find the most affordable, sustainable, and overall responsible way to celebrate.

Now, I am offering dresses like mine—rare, high-quality, long-lasting, and fun—to brides and event-goers who want to make the most of their special days.

Not only is our collection chock-a-block full of gorgeous vintage dresses, but we offer these pieces cleaned, repaired, and typically ready-to-wear for your special day. We take the work out of the vintage shopping aspect, and offer the salon try-on experience that all nearlyweds deserve.

I would love to share my collections with you via our online shop, swap stories with you on a “playdate” (try-on sesh by appointment), and/or guide the adventure of vintage shopping with you and finding your dream dress(es) via our styling services.

Playdate is a safe, inclusive, and welcoming space for ALL nearlyweds and partygoers. We stock inclusive sizes and styles, and we are thrilled to help you celebrate and DRESS RESPONSIBLY, no matter who you are or how you identify.
