When I decided to take a part-time job while going back to college at the age of 30, I never would have imagined my life's passion would be found in the bridal industry.  I've always loved fashion and design and soon discovered I've got a keen eye for detail. 

Starting in 1999, I worked at a few different bridal salons in the Boston area including Precious Memories, Yolanda's, Priscilla of Boston and Madeleine's Daughter where I not only worked as a Bridal Consultant but helped in the Alterations Department.  This is where I learned about fit, gown bustles and steaming the finished garments.  I learned about fabrics and which ones should be steamed and which ones should not.  I learned about veils and how delicate they are and where to place them on the brides head.  I learned the importance of how to properly steam every gown starting from the inside and not just the outside layer.  I can't begin to explain the pure joy I receive every time I finish steaming a wedding gown.  

In the late summer of 2021, I took a chance on myself and launched Christine Cornell Bridal and Stylist.  To say my life has forever been changed is an understatement.
