    Found the Perfect Dress!

    I found my dream dress at Coastal Knot! During my try-on session, I received the best service and got to try on so many beautiful dresses. I chose a custom dress designed by Coastal Knot and had it altered there. The price for the dress and alterations surprised me at how affordable it was! I would recommend Coastal Knot to anyone!

    Chasity in Raleigh is Amazing!

    I had someone once tell me that you will definitely find a dress at Coastal Knot and that is absolutely true! Chasity listened to a few thoughts I had on the wedding theme and dress shape I was going for and found several dresses that pulled all those thoughts together and introduced me to a new designer I now love. Every dress I tried on made me feel amazing, I ended up getting a Martina Liana gown that I am still obsessed with. The customer service was amazing at Coastal Knot, even accommodating a last minute steam on my dress the day before. I had such a wonderful experience that I can't recommend this bridal boutique enough!

    Wonderful!

    Coastal knot was great from the day I picked out my dress, to the day I picked it up. The consults are so sweet, they knew the right dress for me before I even stepped foot in the shop. The fit was perfect.

    Awesome experience

    From my first visit, to having to return for multiple alterations, the girls in Wilmington were amazing. They were so helpful when I had to return for a second set of alterations after the first, even discounting me due to the distance I traveled for my gown and alterations, since we had only thought we needed one appointment. I loved every minute with them!

    Beautiful Wedding Gowns and Fantastic Customer Service

    I bought my dream Hayley Paige wedding ballgown from the Coastal Knot at their Raleigh location. I chose to go to Coastal Knot specifically because they were the only boutique in Raleigh who carried Hayley Paige gowns. I was not disappointed. I think I tried on every gown they had in the store designed by her. The customer service was top notch. The representative that worked with me was patient and was having just as much fun as I was. She listened to what I said I wanted and brought me several gowns and veils to try on. I spent about 3 hours in the store and purchased the very last gown I tried on. It was absolutely perfect. The Coastal Knot was the first and only place I tried on dresses. They worked with me to get it altered and it fit like a glove. I would highly recommend the Coastal Knot!

    Love Coastal Knot!!

    All the ladies that were in the boutique when I said year to my dress were so friendly! My consultant, Mallie, was able to help me find my perfect dress! I went in thinking I was getting all the lace and sparkles, but Mallie and my sister told me to try on a simple dress- which ended up being the one!! Mallie even helped me pick out my veil and recommend one I didn’t think I would ever wear (but I did!). I highly recommend Coastal Knot!

    Awesome store with amazing bridal consultants. Highly recommend this place to anyone searching for a dress they love!

    I went to the Coastal Knot located in Wilmington on Oleander Drive. This was the first place I went to when looking for my wedding dress and I cannot say enough nice things about this shop. The appointment was easy to book and the store is fantastic. I thought the dressing rooms had plenty of space and I liked that each mirror and pedestal outside the dressing rooms was sectioned off for a little privacy. The best part about the experience was my bridal consultant, Kirsten. She was amazing despite me not having much of a preference when it came to what type of dresses to try on. She let me browse the racks on my own for a bit while she went to find a few dresses she thought I would like. I never felt like she was just saying nice things or continuously agreeing with me about each dress in order to get me to buy something. She gave honest opinions and seemed genuinely invested in helping me find a dress I would love. My mom got a picture of me in the dress I plan on buying with her in the background and I can only hope my future husband looks that happy when he sees my in that dress. I would highly recommend this shop and Kirsten to anyone looking for wedding dresses in the Wilmington area, especially if this is your first time trying them on.

    Love this awesome place!

    I had a hard time finding the right dress. I finally found one online, and it said Coastal Knot had it in stock and they did!! Kirsten was my helper and she was perfect for me. She even pulled other dresses to the one similar to what I chose. Good thing she did because I liked a top of another dress better. So I asked for them to add a piece on to the first one I chose. They not only did, but made it so perfect for me! They ordered my size and I had it in just a few weeks. It fit perfect. Can't Thank you enough!!

    Amazing!

    I had the BEST experience with Coastal Knot when searching for my wedding dress!!! Stephanie and Barbara helped me find the most perfect dress, and were so kind and helpful! I tried on multiple dresses, and they had so many beautiful options. I ended up picking the perfect dress for me, but Stephanie helped me make the dress even more beautiful by suggesting to make it strapless. I immediately fell in love with that idea, and she was able to confirm that this could be done!

    Fast forward to my first fitting, and the alterations were amazing!!! I could not believe how gorgeous the dress was! It was absolutely perfect. The seamstress completely re-built the top of the dress to make it strapless and had hand-sewn all of the lace! I am still in shock of how beautiful the final dress turned out - better than I could have ever imagined. Thank you so much to the awesome ladies at Coastal Knot for helping me find the most beautiful dress that just felt like “me” and made me feel so beautiful on my special day. Thank you!!!

    Loved my Allure gown from Coastal Knot!

    I could not be happier with my experience at Coastal Knot! COVID shut downs delayed and changed my appointment plans quite a bit, but when I finally got to go try on dresses it was such a fun experience! I explained what I was looking for and Morgan understood my vision exactly. I tried on about 6 dresses, and ended up picking the very first dress I tried on! My dress came in a timely manner and the store was great about steaming my dress before the big day!

    Amazing experience at Costal Knot!

    I had such a good experience with Costal Knot! They were totally ready for me when I arrived and already had dressed pulled based on pictures I had sent a few days prior. The store itself is beautiful and the staff go above and beyond to ensure you have a good experience. They even came up with a few modifications to my dress, ultimately making it a game-changer for me! I highly recommend this store to any brides in the area! Can't wait to go back for my fittings!

    Extremely Helpful

    I went to the coastal knot in Raleigh, NC as my first wedding dress appointment. The beauty of the store itself, the quiet personalized appointment, and the attentive and helpful staff made for a perfect experience. I went to try on 'Made with Love' gowns. I had a few in mind, which I tried, and the associate I worked with told me to try the Georgie crepe dress as well and im so glad I did even though it was not the orginal style I had in mind. I even went to NYC to try on more dresses and could not get the dress from coastal knot out of my head. I returned home and said yes to the dress! I paired that dress with the stevie veil. They were so helpful and friendly every step of the process and I received so many compliments on my dress. I loved absolutely loved wearing it. Can't thank Coastal Knot enough for introducing me to my dream wedding dress!

    Nicole made it so easy! She gave great suggestions without being pushy, and had great knowledge of the inventory. She made the experience comfortable and exciting! I bought my dress here and absolutely love it- I can't wait for it to come in!

    Dress of my dreams

    I went to Coastal Knot in Wilmington not knowing what to expect. I had spent hours and hours watching Say Yes to the Dress and looking up dress styles online. I sent Coastal Knot photos of the style I thought I wanted and they were quick to pull dresses that they thought I would like. After trying on about 3 dresses, I found “the one”. I am typically very indecisive but this was one of the easiest wedding decisions I made. All of the girls at the salon were so friendly and helpful and the selection was great. And a bonus- we ended up paying less than we had budgeted for! I got compliments on my dress all night long and it’s all thanks to Coastal Knot.

    One indecisive fairy princess

    I am not a very decisive person and picking a wedding dress was no easy task. I must have tried on 100 dresses.

    Coastal Knot of Wilmington was amazing! They were so supportive and allowed me to return to the store to try more dresses on...on several different occasions. I even said "yes" to one dress only to change my mind that night. The team at Coastal Knot was so encouraging and patient as I restarted my wedding dress journey. They made sure to make me feel at ease and confident in my decision. Once I REALLY found the one, it was magical. The team helped make sure it was altered to my liking and cleaned for the big day!

    I felt like a fairy princess!

    The best wedding dress experience!

    I absolutely loved my wedding dress shopping experience with Coastal Knot...so much so that I am sad it is over! The ladies at the boutique were so kind and made me feel so comfortable throughout the entire process. I felt heard and cared for, and I was absolutely able to find my DREAM wedding gown (within budget!). The alteration process was so smooth and they made sure I felt 1000% comfortable in the final product. I wouldn't recommend finding your wedding dress anywhere else! THANK YOU so much for such an amazing experience!

    Coastal Knot in Wilmington had by far the most beautiful and best selection of wedding dresses!

    Just wow! The moment I walked in to Coastal Knot I was spoiled. The whole experience was awesome and each of the ladies that worked there was amazing to work with! I highly suggest getting a dress from this shop! They were quick to answer any questions and were great with communication. Everything turned out perfectly and I can't thank the ladies enough for helping me find my PERFECT ball gown!! I added detachable sleeves that were made out of the extra lace from the top part of my gown and they couldn't have looked any better!

    Had a great time finding my dress (went to the Shallotte location) and then had it altered by them as well (in Wilmington). Both staffs were kind and accommodating and I ended up with a perfect fitting dress that I loved!

    Most Genuine People!

    The women at Coastal Knot in Wilmington are the kindest, most patient and supportive people, and they made finding my dream dress one of the most fun and stress-free experiences. The store for starters is absolutely stunning and you are welcomed in immediately. Amanda, who is the most wonderful and encouraging person, asked me about my style, what silhouettes I was interested in and my budget and helped pull several beautiful gowns for me. When I found gowns I liked that were out of my budget range, she was amazing and would find me alternatives that were more affordable to make sure I never tried on anything outside of my specified budget. In the dressing room, she helped me get dressed and after actively listening to my likes and dislikes about the dress I was trying on, she would pull a new gown to reflect those requests that was exactly what I was picturing. Within 8 dresses I was in my dream dress and it was all because of her and her incredible ability to understand your style and her deep knowledge of the gowns in the store. Flash forward a few months later and I began working with the incredible Kirsten and Laura during my fittings. Laura altered my and my sister's gown - she hemmed the bottom of both our dresses, adjusted both our straps and seamlessly added covered buttons on my wedding dress. Everything turned out perfectly! Kirsten helped us through the whole process and she not only delivered both of our gowns to Wrightsville Manor on wedding day, but she hand steamed them too! Coastal Knot was the best decision and I completely recommend working with them. It has been such a wonderful experience!

    Beautiful Bridesmaid Dresses

    WOW! I cannot thank Coastal Knot enough for their beautiful selection of bridesmaid dresses. They were extremely helpful in assisting me to find the perfect dress for my bridesmaids. They asked about colors, styles, theme, etc. They provided many different options, eventually leading to the perfect dress for all my bridesmaids. The online ordering process was easy, user-friendly! I would recommend Coastal Knot for your wedding attire needs!

    2 words: hayley paige

    I found my dream dress at Coastal Knot in Wilmington. The lovely ladies knew what I was looking for prior to my first consult (thanks Pinterest!) and they had THE dress pulled when I walked in the store. The ladies were very attentive and supportive through the process. They made sure my dress was cleaned and ready to go for bridal portraits and again for the big day! I cannot say enough great things about this store! SO many great options for any budget!

    Stop searching! Get your dress here!

    When I first arrived to Coastal Knot, I had probably tried on 30+ dresses or at least it felt like it. I tried other places in town and also in my hometown and online, but I just couldn't find the right look. I was really starting to worry that I'd never find the right dress in time! I told the staff what I was looking for and what I didn't want also, and they immediately found at least five great options - like collectively those five looked way better than say the top five at all other stores combined. I ended up going with one of the first dresses that was suggested! They just really paid attention to what I wanted and I found that throughout the wedding planning process that the best vendors are this way! ;) They were super easy to work with and I didn't have to worry at all as I waited for my dress or when I had the in house alterations. The dress was perfectly altered to fit me, and I was even able to hide my comfy blue sneakers. They also have a great selection of earrings and I ended up trying like 20 looks and picked the perfect pair there. They also have a cleaning service so I'm using that to clean up from my rainy, muddy day.

    Stop trying on dresses at other shops and looking online. This is your dress shop!!

    Dream Experience

    Coastal Knot provided the perfect wedding dress shopping experience from start to finish. They helped make me feel beautiful, affirm my decision, and make me feel completely comfortable. There is nothing worse to me than pushy salespeople and that was never once the case with Coastal Knot. I also bought my gorgeous veil from them and they had a great selection of jewelry as well. The big trend when I was shopping was completely lace-covered dresses. I knew I wanted a chic crepe dress with clean lines, and it was hard to find. But at Coastal Knot I found my dream dress! When I saw a small stain on it after it had been altered, Coastal Knot was able to get it out perfectly for me free of charge. It was a wonderful experience!
