Raffiné Bridal & Formal Wear was originally found in 2004 in Stillwater, Minnesota. Since, April 29th, 2009, Raffiné Bridal has been owned and operated by two sisters and their mother. Upon ownership, the family realized a need for more space and accessibility for their customers. This led them to the relocation to Woodbury, Minnesota on November 4, 2014.
At Raffiné Bridal, everything is meant to be pitch-perfect: The selection of dresses, the designers on display, and the personal attention given to each customer is intentional and memorable. Respect for each guest’s time, style preferences, and vision drives customer service efforts. Making sure everyone feels comfortable, is the first priority at Raffiné Bridal.
Within the bridal department you can find designers carefully selected for their timeliness and quality. Raffiné Bridal works exclusively with vendors who ship on time, stand behind their products, and produce designs that are relevant, stylish, and structured to hold their shape and beauty through an entire wedding event.
The entire staff at Raffiné Bridal looks forward to working with you. It is our personal pleasure and passion to help each customer achieve their vision, while making the process easy and relaxing.

At Epitome Papers, we have been helping our customers create their own signature style for over 40 years.

There are few stores, if any, that carry the extensive library of samples, catalogues and brochures that Epitome Papers does. A talented staff, that is knowledgeable in all aspects of traditional and contemporary social and business etiquette, will help you design something that perfectly reflects your personality and sets the tone for your event.
Epitome Papers represents a wide range of vendors at every price point and is happy to work within any budget.
For the last 42 years, Epitome Papers has been the "epitome" of good taste and great style in the paper and gift space. It is important for Alex and Dana to continue this legacy for their existing customers and bring this special experience to their neighbors in Excelsior, all of the South Lake Communities, the Twin Cities and beyond.
