Yes, 5 stars out of 5! And I ain't lyin'!This shop is that good and Debra is a wonderful hostess! I can tell that she really loves her work and her clients. You get the attention and personalization of your appointment that you won't get in any chain bridal shop. Debra's shop is clean, well organized and downright pretty. Tons of good vibes there! I felt completely at home. I hugged Debra twice on my way out. She and her shop environment made the experience of finding my dress all the more magical. Thank you Debra!!!

Something Blue is the most wonderful bridal salon. I would highly recommend it to any bride-to-be. I got engaged while living in New York City. I moved to Seattle shortly after and started planning a wedding that would take place in Austin, Texas. In the process, I visited twelve different bridal gown shops in and around all three cities and San Antonio. Most of my bridal party, friends and family live in Texas or on the East Coast, so I was generally on my own in the search for the right gown.I discovered Something Blue while searching for stores on the Amy Kuschel Web site. Amy Kuschel designs extraordinary and beautifully constructed gowns that are each made in San Francisco and, therefore, available in a select number of carefully chosen bridal salons. I was thrilled to discover one of them - Something Blue - in my area. I didn't want an ordinary gown - or even an ordinary experience selecting and buying my gown - and so I am truly grateful that I found Something Blue and Kim. Kim Bashor, the owner, is by far one of the most delightful people I had the pleasure of collaborating with as I was planning my wedding. She is incredibly knowledgeable, patient, trustworthy and discerning. She provided helpful guidance and treated me with such care and warmth - which was so meaningful to me since I was on my own.Something Blue is a charming place to spend an afternoon. Kim has clearly carefully chosen her designers and accessories. She has a remarkable variety of gowns (I would know since I'm pretty sure I tried them ALL on). They ranged from gowns with elaborate lace, lovely beading or crinolines to the very simple and chic. Despite the variety, Kim - unlike so many other owners - has avoided filling her shop with predictable or poorly made dresses. Kim also has a lovely collection of fun accessories - wraps, beaded belts, shoes, jewelry. I bought all kinds of fun stuff from her store, including three beautiful handmade garters - one for me and for two for bride-to-be friends. I chose a perfect, fabulous Amy Kuschel dress. All these months after my wedding I still get compliments about my gown. It was expertly tailored by Judy, Kim's terrific seamstress (even my experienced wedding coordinator, tasked with attaching all the loops and buttons for my double French bustle, said that she had never seen a prettier bustle construction) and then carefully and lovingly packed and shipped to Texas, where it arrived in plenty of time.Kim made what could be a daunting and stressful experience - selecting and preparing my wedding gown - so easy and so fun. Even my fiance, who would go for runs around charming La Conner during my appointments, was utterly impressed by her. Something Blue is a rare find. I couldn't imagine buying my wedding gown anywhere else.

Kim is THE BEST! She dressed both me - in my beautiful Amy Kutchell wedding dress, and my mother in this amazing Trousseau long black gown. She is a sweetheart, and her services is exceptional. Look no further, Kim exclusively carries three designers that no one else in WA - (or for that matter most of the country) has. I think Amy Kutchell is only available in 7 other states... Both me and my best friend had the best experience with Kim - seriously, she's a doll and her dresses are beautiful!

I was a bridesmaid and got a beautiful dress and sash for a fairly decent price. The brides dress was exquisite and tailored perfectly.

Kim at Something Blue has the most beautiful and unique wedding dresses I saw during my search. She was extremely sweet and helpful. My dress was my favorite part of my wedding!

I am so glad I made the drive up to La Conner to visit Something Blue. I initially made the journey simply because I was interested in an Amy Kuschel dress, but now I can't imagine having got my dress anywhere else. Kim basically let me have the whole shop to myself on a week day. She gave great advice and was extremely patient. She sends little e-mail updates to let you know when your order has been placed with the manufacturer, dress has shipped, dress has arrived etc. I would definitely recommend this shop to any bride-to-be. It was worth the extra mileage on my car!

I would highly recommend Something Blue Boutique to anyone looking for a wedding dress in the Seattle area. It was a bit a drive to get up there, but it was totally worth it. I moved to Seattle just after getting engaged and had to go shopping for my dress alone. I couldn’t imagine a better place to go! Kim took so much time with me (several hours!) and was able to fill in for my sister/friends by providing me real advice on the different dresses (I think she had me try on just about every dress in there). The personal attention you get definitely makes up for the driving distance. You never feel like you are just part of an assembly line like you can at the larger stores. Plus I think the dresses she has are gorgeous. All in all, it was just a wonderful experience. Kim really made me feel like I was working with a family member – she was someone who truly cared about my wedding day and making sure I looked my best! My dress was perfect, fit like a glove and I truly felt beautiful all day long! I couldn’t have asked for a better experience.
