Gabriella New York

Gabriella Risatti

When Gabriella Risatti, a veteran in the fashion industry, went wedding dress shopping with friends years ago, she was disappointed with the customer service they received at the shops and knew that there was a place in the market for a bridal shop that offered a superior customer experience to brides looking for the perfect gown.  Ms. Risatti spent eight years dreaming of opening her shop before deciding to take the plunge.

When Ms. Risatti decided to turn her dream of opening a bridal shop into a reality, she knew she needed both guidance and financing to open and operate her shop. 

The NYC Business Solutions, Lower Manhattan Center helped Ms. Risatti refine her business plan and develop financial projections , NYC Business Solutions continued to work closely with Ms. Risatti after she launched her business, including helping her to obtain health insurance for her employees and develop a more effective strategy for stocking inventory.

Ms. Risatti secured $285,000 in financing and successfully launched her storefront in a prime location.
