Customer Portal

The Customer Portal is a self-service area where your customers can log in to view their appointments, orders, invoices, and payment methods — without needing to call or email your boutique. Every BridalOp account includes a customer portal at no extra cost.

Logging In

Customers access the portal via a magic link — no passwords to remember. They enter their email or phone number, and BridalOp sends a secure login link.

Customer portal login

The login page also includes a Book now link that takes customers directly to your public booking portal if they need to schedule an appointment instead.

You can copy your portal link from the Dashboard using the Copy Portal Link quick action.

Dashboard

After logging in, customers see a personalized dashboard with:

Customer portal dashboard

  • Most Recent Appointment — the next upcoming appointment with type, date, time, duration, party size, and status badge (confirmed, pending, etc.). Click View All to see all appointments.
  • Account Summary — a quick count of orders on file.
  • Recent Orders — the latest order with order number, date, total, and status. Click View All to see all orders.
  • View Store Policies — link to your boutique's store policies.

The portal navigation includes:

Additional tabs may appear under the More dropdown depending on which features are enabled in Customer Portal Settings.

Lookbook

The Lookbook lets customers browse your product catalog directly from the portal — a pricing-free (or pricing-included) showcase of your dresses, accessories, and more.

Portal Lookbook

Customers can:

  • Search products by name
  • Filter by class (All Classes, Bridesmaid, Gown, Shoe, etc.)
  • Switch views — Grid, List, or Masonry layout
  • Favorite items by clicking the heart icon — favorited items appear with a filled red heart and are saved to their Favorites tab
  • View stock status — "In Stock" badges show which items are available (if enabled in Products & Inventory Settings)

What customers see in the lookbook (prices, availability, product titles, filters, search) is controlled by your Products & Inventory Settings. Products must have "Show on Lookbook" enabled to appear.

The lookbook can also be made publicly accessible (no login required) from Products & Inventory Settings — useful for sharing on your website or social media.

Favorites

Items favorited from the Lookbook are saved to the Favorites tab. Customers can review their saved items and add personal notes. Staff can also see these favorites on the customer's Favorites tab in the admin panel.

Appointments

The Appointments page shows all appointments split into Upcoming and Past sections.

How the Portal Connects to BridalOp

Everything in the customer portal is read-only data from your BridalOp account — there's nothing separate to manage:

Customers receive the portal link in their confirmation emails, or you can share it directly using the Copy Portal Link button on your Dashboard.
