Not at all! Most of our customers simply walk in, and we are always happy to help you shop.

If you would feel more comfortable having a dedicated appointment time, especially when shopping for an important event, give us a call at (912) 638-3470. We will do our best to arrange a time that works for you and can accommodate private appointments when needed.

Absolutely. Personal service is a big part of what we do.

Our team can help you put together an entire look, from the dress, jacket, skirt, top, or pants to the shoes, jewelry, handbag, and finishing accessories. Whether you need a little guidance or want help from start to finish, just let us know.

Much more than just weddings!

We regularly help ladies shop for Mother of the Bride and Mother of the Groom attire, wedding guest looks, rehearsal dinners, bridal luncheons, cocktail parties, formal dinners, conventions, galas, special events, and other occasions.

We also help ladies attending local events and conferences, including events at the Jekyll Island Convention Center and throughout the Golden Isles.

We have even helped younger customers who need a prom or homecoming dress in a pinch. While prom and homecoming are not our primary specialty, we often have beautiful formal options that may work perfectly.

Yes! We help ladies dress for events both locally and all over the country.

Whether your event is on St. Simons Island, Sea Island, Jekyll Island, elsewhere in Georgia, or states away, our team can help you find something appropriate for the venue, season, dress code, and occasion while still making sure you feel like yourself.

Our jewelry collection ranges from beautiful everyday pieces to truly one-of-a-kind fine jewelry.

We carry necklaces, bracelets, earrings, clip-on earrings, and statement pieces, with styles that can take you from everyday wear to weddings, formal events, and special occasions.

One of the most unique parts of our jewelry collection is Starfire, featuring handcrafted, one-of-a-kind pieces made with stones and jewels sourced from around the world. No two pieces are exactly alike. The collection includes distinctive wire necklaces, unique pendants, and handmade beaded gold-wire necklaces that are truly special.

We also carry everyday and occasion jewelry from brands such as Lordane, INC., including our popular clip-on earrings, along with traditional earrings, necklaces, bracelets, and more. For customers who love pearls, we also carry beautiful pearl jewelry from MM Designs.

Because our jewelry selection changes frequently, we are not always able to put our full assortment online. If you are looking for something specific, give us a call at (912) 638-3470 and we will be happy to let you know what we currently have in store.

We typically do not carry rings.

You can also follow us on Instagram at @evelynetalman_ssi for new jewelry arrivals, trunk shows, and special collections.

No. While we carry a wonderful selection of dresses and gowns, our occasion wear goes far beyond dresses.

Depending on the season and current inventory, you may also find formal jackets, skirts, tops, pants, separates, cocktail pieces, and accessories that can be styled together for a polished event look.

Yes. Mother of the Bride and Mother of the Groom dressing is an important part of what we do at Evelyne Talman.

Our team can help you navigate silhouettes, colors, lengths, fabrics, and accessories to find something that feels special and appropriate for the wedding while still feeling comfortable and confident.

We always recommend starting earlier rather than later when possible.

Shopping early gives you more time to explore options, place a special order if needed, and allow time for any alterations before the wedding.

That being said, if your event is quickly approaching, do not panic! Come see us or call us at (912) 638-3470. We will be happy to show you what we currently have available and help you find the best option possible.

We try to keep a selection of sizes available in styles we bring into the store. However, because we are a small boutique, we are not able to keep every style in every size on hand.

That is where our special-order service can be especially helpful. In many cases, we can order the size you need directly from the designer.

Come talk to us!

Depending on designer availability, we can often special order the size you need. Our team can check availability and discuss your options with you.

Call us at (912) 638-3470 if you would like us to check on a particular style or size.

Of course. We love helping complete the entire look.

We carry fine jewelry, costume jewelry, handbags, shoes, wraps, and other accessories that can help bring everything together. If you are unsure what works with your dress, bring it with you or ask one of our team members for help.
