Modern Grace, Sculpted Perfection, and Couture Craftsmanship

Fit and Flare Wedding Dresses in San Diego & Orange County

The fit-and-flare wedding dress captures the perfect balance between structure and softness — fitted through the bodice and hips, flaring gently below the thigh for elegance and movement. At Bridal & Tuxedo Galleria, we elevate this iconic silhouette through our exclusive couture collection and an elite selection of designer wedding dresses from world-renowned names like Maggie Sottero, Justin Alexander, Morilee, Casablanca, and more. Brides from across San Diego and Orange County visit us because we are the bridal fashion authority in Southern California — offering originality, artistry, and over 30 years of bridal expertise in creating unforgettable wedding gowns.
