Lisa and Mike started Ella Park Bridal in late 2004. Forced to vacate their start-up location due to road construction, they moved their business back to Newburgh where they have lived for 20+ years.
In late 2009, Ella Park Bridal purchased their current location on Bell Oaks Drive in Newburgh. With the experiences of the past few years, Ella Park Bridal has grown to become well recognized for their unique store format, beautiful wedding gowns and 1-on-1 service.
When time permits, Lisa enjoys creative projects around the house and watching her favorite show “Say YES to the DRESS!”. Mike is the handy man around the house and enjoys an occasional round of golf or following the St. Louis Cardinals. They have 3 grown children, each who’ve played a unique role in helping Ella Park Bridal grow into the company it is today!
