“I had an excellent experience finding my dress at strike. the staff were extremely queer friendly! I loved that they all used the correct pronouns for me and asked consent whenever touching my body. overall, I felt really safe and it helped me have fun! couldn’t have asked for anything else being a gender non-binary bride!”

”plus size going into wedding dress shopping was overwhelming, but they made feel so comfortable and beautiful. they were warm and welcoming, not over bearing. they let you give your own opinion of the dress without any judgement and cheer you on when you know you found the one. quality of the dresses well worth the price. highly recommend for anyone!”
- angela b.

I never felt rushed; I felt respected, cared for and attended to. the most comfortable and exciting experience so far in my wedding planning experience!”
- kristin r.
“everything I could have asked for in a bridal shopping experience! I was nervous as a plus size bride that I wouldn't feel comfortable or find anything in my size to try on. they helped me find the perfect dress. communication prior to and during my appointment was very clear and I never felt pressured to buy or consider anything outside of my budget. It was truly such a fun and stress free afternoon! so, so glad I tried strike!”

founded in 2019, strike bridal bar was created to offer all couples the experience WE would want when wedding dress shopping. that means no pushy sales people or dresses hidden away, a relaxed + welcoming atmosphere and of course the dreamiest gowns you could find in wisconsin.
at strike, we are passionate about helping babes put together their dream wedding day look + giving back to our community. each quarter, a portion of every gown sale is donated to a local organization near + dear to our team’s hearts. this april through june, we have chosen to donate a portion of our profits to milwaukee diaper mission, a nonprofit organization that empowers families in need by providing a reliable source of free diapers + period supplies.
