Meet Our team

Laney joined the Love team in 2015 as a part-time Bridal Stylist, thinking it would be a fun chapter before pursuing a career in counseling. Instead, she fell in love with the bridal industry and never looked back. A graduate of the University of North Florida, where she was a student-athlete in Cross Country and Track, Laney earned her Master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling in 2015. Her passion for people, leadership, and helping women feel confident has guided her growth within the company, from stylist to manager and, in 2024, Director of Stores, overseeing Love, Curve Bridal Collection, and The Bridal Outlet Jax. Today, Laney also co-owns Curve Bridal Collection alongside Melissa and leads the social media presence for all three stores. Known for her sense of humor, empathy, and genuine belief that every woman deserves to see her own beauty, she is passionate about creating an empowering enviornment where everyone feels like family. When she's not at the boutique, you'll likely find her out on a long run, hunting for a great find at Nordstrom Rack, or enjoying a beach day with her husband, Jordan.

Paige joined the Love team in 2018 as a part-time stylist and quickly became known for her incredible ability to connect with brides. After joining full-time as a Senior Stylist in 2020, she continued to grow within the company and was promoted to Sales Manager in 2024. Combining her love of fashion with her passion for people, Paige creates appointments that are fun, relaxed, and highly personalized. Often described as a "mind-reader" by her brides, she has a special talent for bringing a bride's vision to life, even when they can't quite put it into words themselves. As Sales Manager, she is exceptionally knowledgeable about our designers, fit, and customization options, making her an invaluable resource throughout the bridal journey. Known for her patience, incredible style, and dedication to her brides, Paige helps make every appointment feel effortless and memorable. A Ponte Vedra Beach native, she enjoys spending time at the beach, trying new recipes with husband Alex, and hanging out with her two cats, Ziggy and Uma.

Hope joined the Love team in 2024 and quickly became a valued member of our styling team. A Jacksonville native raised in Ponte Vedra Beach, she graduated from the University of North Florida with a Bachelor's degree in Advertising and found her own wedding gown at Love before marrying her husband, Daniel, in 2023. Her passion for fashion, eye for style, and dedication to our brides led to promotions to Marketing Coordinator in 2025 and Assistant Manager in 2026. In addition to helping brides find their dream gowns, Hope plays an integral role in shaping the Love experience both in-store and online. Known for her warmth, positivity, and genuine care for others, Hope makes every bride feel celebrated from the moment they walk through our doors. When she's not at the boutique, she enjoys Pilates, shopping, and spending time with her daughter, Sloane, and her two dogs, Obi and Sage.

Sydney joined the Love team in 2024, bringing prior bridal and retail experience that allowed her to quickly complete training and step into her role as a Bridal Stylist. In 2025, she was promoted to Operations Coordinator, where she now supports both our brides and our team behind the scenes. Originally from Minnesota and a graduate of Cathedral High School, Sydney recently relocated to Jacksonville after years of bridal experience. She was introduced to Love through her coworker Hope, and it was an immediate fit. Known for her calm, kind, and patient demeanor, Sydney creates a relaxed space where brides feel comfortable and confident throughout their appointment. Her professionalism and industry knowledge make her a trusted guide in the bridal journey. Outside of Love, Sydney is a 200-hour certified yoga instructor. When she’s not in the boutique, she enjoys yoga, staying active outdoors, and spending time with her boyfriend, Jackson.

Charli joined the Love team in 2025, bringing together the perfect blend of bridal expertise, compassion, and fun. A graduate of the University of North Florida, she began her career as a School Mental Health Counselor before realizing she missed the excitement and joy of helping brides find their dream dresses. Before joining Love, Charli spent three years as the Manager of The Bridal Outlet Jax, where she styled brides and led the outlet team. Her ability to instantly connect with people, paired with her calming presence and quick wit, made her a natural fit at Love and earned her a promotion to Lead Stylist within her first year. Charli has a way of making every appointment feel effortless, fun, and full of laughter while still helping brides feel confident and cared for throughout the process. When she's not in the boutique, you'll likely find her at a concert, soaking up the sun at the beach, or sweating it out in a hot yoga class.
