About Us

Dearest bride

to be,

Congratulations on your upcoming wedding! Celebrating with newly engaged brides never gets old for me. It is such an incredible and exciting time in your life and it is worth celebrating. Take a little advice from me, slow down and enjoy it. It will go by all too soon. You have imagined and dreamed of what your special day will look like. Now, it’s time to plan.

Making your dreams and visions come to life is the reason we exist, and the reason we have continued to do so for 44 years. It has been such a blessing and a joy to grow up in our family owned bridal business. We have celebrated with thousands of brides since opening in 1980. We pride ourselves in creating a once and a lifetime experience for every bride. We celebrate the moments and the experiences we create together.

You deserve to be understood. You deserve the best and you deserve someone who cares!

Congratulations again, LOVE is worth celebrating,
Liz Stoner, Second generation of Normans Bridal

Locally and Family Owned Boutique

In 1980, Brenda Norman opened her bridal boutique in the back of her husband’s fine jewelry store in downtown Lebanon. She began with one dressing room and 20 wedding dresses.

Fast forward a few years and her daughter Liz was born in 1984. Liz grew up first toddling through the Lebanon store then by high school she was working side by side with her mom.

Over the years there were many expansions and remodels. One of the expansions was a move to downtown Springfield which is now the only location. The Springfield location boasts 9,000 sq ft. of designer wedding dresses and stunning prom dresses.

Liz is now the co-owner and works alongside her mom to bring the brides of Missouri and Northern Arkansas the best and most amazing selection of wedding and formal dresses.
Norman’s bridal is still locally owned and you will always see a member of the family on staff.
We want you to experience what it feels like to be treated like family because your wedding is our passion.

Giving Back

At Normans we have always felt a great desire to give back to the community that has supported us. We specifically focus on those charities who help children and women in need.

Over the years Normans has donated yearly to Harmony House, Whole Kids Outreach and Lebanon Pregnancy Center.

Normans also donates prom dresses to Shine Inc. so highschoolers in need are able to attend prom.
We feel it’s our responsibility and privilege to help.
