Absolutely amazing staff, dresses, and facility. I found my dress on the very first visit and fell in love. The staff were super welcoming and celebrated me finding my dress and even stored it for me until it was time for alterations. I highly recommend checking them out!Keep in mind it may take a while for your dress to come in. But they kept me updated and texted/called when it was ready!They just moved to a new facility and the door is sometimes locked, all I had to do was call to get in!

I cannot recommend Sophie and everyone at Coastal Knot Bridal Raleigh enough. I had been to other bridal shops in Raleigh and beyond before, but this place and the people top all of them by far. After having a negative experience of trying on gowns previously with people accompanying me, I decided that as a bride, I would go to Coastal Knot by myself. I had a lot of feelings about going through this process alone, but Sophie and Katie Bella made me feel like I had a group of girls with me without the pressure of having all those other opinions. They truly want to make sure you have an amazing experience and love your dress. I never felt for a second that I was being pressured into buying anything. They gave me all the time I needed to make a decision, let me go back and forth between dresses, try on 20+ dresses and not once did they make me feel like I was a bother even after apologizing multiple times. Sophie is truly just an amazing human and I will be recommending her to all my bride-to-be friends! Thank you so much Sophie!!

Mia was absolutely amazing! She asked initial questions when my mother and I arrived to get an idea of what I wanted and then pulled the dresses for me, which I greatly appreciated since I had no idea what I was actually going to like.The dress options at this bridal shop are all so gorgeous and Mia could not have been more fabulous at helping me find my dream dress! So grateful that I had her to share such a special day with. She really did make my wedding dress shopping experience a 10/10!! Could not recommend Mia or Coastal Knot Bridal enough!!

Mia was amazing!! Me and my family had such an amazing experience here. Not only did they accommodate all 8 of us, with an appointment, there was PLENTY of space!! We enjoyed every minute. Mia really understood my vision and input (when at first I had no idea what I wanted) helping me pick out the perfect dress. She is so friendly and even included my 6yo niece in any way she could. I can’t recommend Coastal Knot Bridal enough!! Of all our appointments this one was the best, I really felt special. Thank you Mia & coastal knot bridal!

I highly recommend Coastal Knot Bridal! I sent pictures of dresses I liked ahead of the appointment, and they had seven or eight dresses picked out for me when I arrived with a specific order they recommended I try them on it. I fell in love with the fourth dress. The store is welcoming, the staff are great, and they have a beautiful selection of dresses.

Thank you Coastal Knot team for everything!! The entire shopping experience was extremely enjoyable. I went by myself as I was living away from home (and had tried on 50+ dresses before my arrival here) but the team made me feel comfortable and welcomed. When I was going through alterations as a now out of state bride and ran into an issue with my dress the team jumped into action to help me with such caring and generosity, I was in overwhelmed by the kindness. Thank you!! The dress came out perfect!!

This was the worst experience. The workers were unprofessional, snobby, and the atmosphere was overall judgmental. This place was chosen by the bride, but it was clear she was not welcome. There is no privacy in the store. Not to mention you can’t use the bathroom. The workers said not to touch the dresses, yet people were coming in and out of the store touching dresses. We asked the worker to bring specific veils and dresses, yet she would bring the opposite veil and dress. It felt passive aggressive as she rolled her eyes and the bride left sad. 10/10 DO NOT recommend.

My daughter shopped for her dress in May 2021. Costal Knot had five dresses ready to go when we arrived based on my daughter’s input that she had communicated via email. Dress number five was the one. Costal helped her pick out a veil and recommended the seamstress. I appreciated that they abided by our price range that was given and no dress that my daughter tried on was above her budget. I highly recommend Coastal Knot for your bridal dress shopping.

I had an incredible experience at Coastal Knot purchasing my ceremony and reception dresses. They were patient, professional and knew their selection of dresses like the back of their hands. I worked with Stephanie and was amazed by her commitment to helping me find a dress.I do not like to feel pressured into a purchase, whether it's a pair of sunglasses or my wedding dress. I had experienced this at other bridal salons. There was zero pressure to say "yes" at Coastal Knot and Stephanie did an amazing job of allowing me to feel like I was choosing my dress and not like I was being sold my dress. I also loved that if I critiqued an aspect of a dress, Stephanie knew exactly which dress to pull next that might better suit my preferences. She is very good at her job.I also found that my communications with Stephanie, even after I purchased my dresses, was prompt and always helpful.Overall, my experience with Stephanie and Coastal Knot was wonderful. I have not one complaint and highly recommend them. Also, the selection is incredible.

Don’t waste your time- wouldn’t accommodate a quick look at accessories. I am no amateur and understand the need for an appointment when looking for full blown styling and gowns. I made it clear I did not need nor want styling and just wanted to view the accessories on offer, which would have taken all of 15 minutes. I was in town from Charlotte and hoping to take a quick look. The quick dismissal and condescending tone certainly does not warrant a trip back. Any higher end shop I’ve been into is wise enough to welcome in a bride looking to spend money on accessories but Coastal Bride is clearly foolish!

I went into wedding dress shopping expecting to feel overwhelmed and stressed, but coastal knot in Raleigh made it just the opposite! I had the pleasure of working with Mallie who was so sweet, knowledgeable, and really listened to understand what I liked. She was so professional and personable through my indecisiveness! I left with the perfect dress for me and a wonderful experience that I will always cherish!

I had the MOST amazing experience with Coastal Knot in Raleigh. First of all, they made a COVID-safe appointment very enjoyable and the personalized experience you get here is like no other. The small boutique feel and appointment requirement allows you a ton of attention from the ladies that work there. Amber did an amazing job at pulling dresses that I had no idea I would love, and she was so sweet and supportive the whole time. I found my dress here, and they were very open and transparent about the timeline of the process the whole time. The timeline ended up being even better than what they predicted! Then, when I took my dress to a DIFFERENT local tailor who really messed up an important part of my dress, I went back to Coastal Knot and they went above and beyond to fix the error that was made, carting my dress to and from their Wilmington location where their personal tailor is located. Stephanie was absolutely PHENOMENAL the whole time, reassuring me throughout the process and always being willing to answer any questions I had. Amanda the manager was also really great the whole time, helping this whole process happen. By some miracle, their tailor was able to completely fix an error I thought was irreversible just in time for my wedding, and I am eternally grateful that I chose Coastal Knot for my wedding dress. Will be recommending them forever!!! Thank you so much!

I cannot say enough positive things about my experience wedding dress shopping at Coastal Knot bridal! They helped me get an appointment quickly to see a dress I was interested in. I worked with Stephanie, and she was incredibly kind, professional, and warm. She helped me find the perfect veil to match my dress! I worked with her again the following week when I brought family members to see the dress, and purchased it during that visit. Everyone on staff is so kind-- it was a delight to shop there!
