THE BAREFOOT BRIDE
22 West GE Patterson
Plan on arriving at least 10-15 minutes prior to your appointment to check in
We loved our funky little spot in East Memphis but we were bursting at the seams. Once we walked into the historic Emerge Building we knew felt right at home. Nestled in the heart of the South Main Arts District, we are on the corner of GE Patterson and Tennessee Street surrounded by history, art, amazing restaurants, shopping and views of the Mississippi River!
We’re not hard to find. Located on the Trolley Line, just a block or two from some of Memphis’ downtown treasures!
The Arcade Restaurant, The Civil Rights Museum, Central BBQ, The Blue Monkey, Malco’s Powerhouse Theatre, Memphis Farmer’s Market, Earnestine and Hazels, The Tennessee Brewery, The Vault, Feelin’ Memphis and The Central Station Hotel just to name a few. So come on down and stay awhile!!
If you are planning on using GPS - PLEASE type in 22 W GE Patterson OR Sugar Services Memphis. Google has us all over the place and we cannot control or change that :(
Tricky Part -
The Emerge Building is located on the corner of GE Patterson & Tennessee Street.
Our ADDRESS is Tennessee Streeet BUT our shop ENTRANCE is on the GE Patterson side of the building directly across from Sugar Services (BIG SHINY TRUCKS) and next door to Kellie’s Deli.
Look for our sign on the sidewalk and a doorbell on the door :)
Sounds wildly confusing, but it’s not. If you get lost, give us a shout at 901-481-6906 and we’ll guide you in.
IF you don’t see our sign and name on the door you’re at ~ you’re at the wrong door ~ come around the corner to GE Patterson ~ :)

GUESTS

Our shop is full of delicate fabrics and sparklies and is not childproof so we kindly request that children are left home.
If you choose to bring children, they will be included in your guest count and must be supervised.
Virtual Guest Access
If you are interested in having virtual guests, please let us know prior to your appointment so we can have time to set up.
Each Bridal Suite is equipped with a 50” Smart TV where we have Apple and Android Mirroring
Just a heads-up - technology is a weird and wonderful thing. Depending on connection speed and other “techy factors”, sometimes delicate laces and beading can be hard to see.
The goal of the virtual guest option is to include everyone. Let them know to be patient and that their presence and positivity is important to your shopping experience.
