Sophia’s Bridal & Tux: The newest Sophia’s Bridal & Tux location at The Shops at River Crossing near The Fashion Mall that opened on Friday couldn’t have come at a better time as it’s becoming increasingly more complicated to find a wedding dress. Shipping times have slowed down by about 300% for wedding manufacturers and designers in 2022, making in-person shopping the best option for this blockbuster wedding year.

The Indianapolis-based, woman-owned bridal and prom-wear boutique carries sizes 00-28, exclusive designers such as Sherri Hill, and VIP styling sessions. Sophia’s Bridal & Tux is open Monday-Friday 12 p.m. to 8 p.m., Saturday 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., and Sunday by appointment only.
