Tie the Knot Boutique — Attraction in Bradenton

Tie the Knot boutique is a beautiful, clean and elegant shop. I scheduled my appointment on their website, which was very easy to use, and went in with my sister to look for "the dress". I had already bought something off the rack that didn't work out and had a little bit of an idea of what i wanted and didn't want.

Kelly was very knowledgeable and friendly. She started with a few different shape dress to help me find a fit that worked for me, as i had expressed "fit" as something that was important to me. Once we honed in on my preferred style, she made suggestions and was very patient as i compared my top contenders. We ended up finding the perfect dress and with Kelly's recommendations further personalized it to my exact style.

Of course i am thrilled to have found a dress that i am obsessed with but i would also like to point out that i was asked when i made the appointment and in the paperwork i filled out at the beginning of the appointment my price point for the dress and i am so pleased to say that Kelly was very mindful of that in the dresses she showed me. We are planning this wedding by ourselves and i have done the research on competitive alternatives for almost every vendor. While it is fun and super easy to get carried away planning the dream wedding it is (almost) equally as important to work with people who respect your budget and still deliver a beautiful product. I felt this was an important detail to mention for any brides feeling overwhelmed about money and i personally believe this is not a time to be shy about your budget because thing add up quickly!

I ended up with a fabulous dress from the Tie the Knot Boutique collection and i cant wait to wear it all night! (it is also super comfortable!) I would defiantly say Tie the Knot Boutique met and exceeded my expectations and would highly recommend any bride to see it for yourself.

Thank you so much...

10/10 experience. Wonderfully priced. This is the type of store and staff that comes to mind when imagining dress stopping.

I wasn’t expecting to find my dress here because it was my first day looking and only my second dress shop. I also had a pretty specific image of what I was looking for in my mind and I envisioned it being difficult to find the perfect dress. Jackie and Kelly were incredible and proved me wrong. I found the dress of my dreams here and couldn’t be more thrilled at how beautiful it is and how easy the process was.

The store itself is wonderful. It’s clean, beautiful, and smells good. Jackie and Kelly are the epitome of professionalism. Just absolutely lovely. I explained to them the type of dress I was looking for. Showed some pictures. Described what I did and didn’t like. Then they pulled some dresses from their inventory for me to try. Each dress was high quality and felt great on the skin. The details on the dresses looked and felt expensive. The previous dresses I had tried on at a different store felt itchy and heavy and could not compare in the quality of appearance.

They listened to what I did and didn’t like about each dress and we eventually found the perfect dress for me. I didn’t want to commit at that moment so my party and I left for lunch. Jackie and Kelly were very respectful of that and were not inappropriately pushy or made me uncomfortable about not buying the dress at the moment. I came back after lunch and tried it back on and said yes to the dress! Then we celebrated with champagne!

I don’t have a single negative thing to say about this store, the staff, or the experience. Was truly the best experience I ever could have imagined. I’ve looked at pictures of my dress every day since I bought it and am somehow more obsessed with it by the day. I cannot thank Jackie and...

Stepping into Tie the Knot was the first time I really felt like a bride. I thought it might be the elegant look of the studio, or the mimosas that kept flowing, but at the end of the day.. it was the attentive and personalized service from Kelly and Jackie. We started with a quick one on one consultation about MY wants and needs. Asking questions I didn't realize were important like the venue, time of year, time of day, theme, my colors. Then used my answers to build a profile that gave me the dress of my dreams. Even though at first I denied it on the rack!

I've casually known Kelly for a few years now and I've seen how she put her heart and soul into this studio (female small business owners are the freakin besttt) so I wasn't a bit suprised to see how knowledgeable she was about the dresses. She was able to give me a really good idea of what customizations we could do during ordering and what was possible in alterations. Having that in depth understanding of the dresses reassured me I was in good hands.

And she handled my budget so freakin well. We didn't have to talk about it after the initial consultation and she just silently found dresses that were in my price range. It would have been so terrible to shop for MY WEDDING DRESS with a number hanging over my head.

Overall I was so impressed with the whole experience.. especially the grace she helped me handle my ehhem.. opinionated peanut gallery 🤣. As an event planner, this part of the journey meant a lot to me and I really wanted it to be an experience. It was more than what I hoped for and they really knocked it out...
