Vendors We Love - The Barre Code

We think all of our brides and bridesmaids are beautiful just the way they are. However, we hear tons of girls in our boutique tell us how they are planning to start "Shedding for the Wedding" and want to kick their workout into high gear in the months before they walk down the aisle. We totally understand, every woman wants to feel the best on her wedding day!

For Milwaukee brides and bridesmaids who are looking for something new to keep them in shape, we highly recommend trying The Barre Code! Their Third Ward studio is located on Water Street, just a few blocks away from our boutique. 

Don't let the name fool you, this isn't a "dance class" - The Barre Code offers various classes that focus on cardio, strength training, and restoration. While the base of their classes focuses on barre work (to get your muscles long and lean like a ballerina) they also have everything from high-energy Boot Camps to Yoga classes on their schedule. The trendy downtown studio is chic from the outside, but trust us, there is hard work taking place behind its doors!

 Want to give it a try? Miss Ruby Boutique now has certificates in store for a Free Barre Class! Pick one up for yourself (and your friends) so you and your bridesmaids can feel the burn.
