Jacqui Wadsworth is an expert in the textile industry. After years successfully negotiating thread and fabric contracts with mills and factories across the world Jacqui was offered a deal on a lot of wholesale wedding gowns. Since she was getting married, she thought, "Why not?" That fateful deal produced the perfect dress for her own wedding and instilled in her a love of all things bridal. By 2006 she opened the first Gilded Gown on Chapman Highway. That award winning boutique has since grown into the 13000 square foot emporium located at 8435 Kingston Pike. Jacqui loves to share the beautifully curated dresses, stunning jewelry and sparkling prom gowns that she sources at market each season.
Grace, the daughter of proprietor Jacqui Wadsworth, has grown up immersed in the bridal world. She has worked at The Gilded Gown since its inception and is highly knowledgeable about bridal design, fit and silhouettes. She especially enjoys working with clients to find their perfect dress and accessories. Grace is a successful model, having appeared in numerous fashion shows, magazine ads, television commercials and photo shoots. In her spare time she is an avid equestrian with a love for the hunter jumper world. Grace has many gifts -- she is a world class barista, hoola hooper and vegan chef. She is currently taking classes in herbalism and making her own Kombucha.
