The Wedding Bell

The Wedding Bell, was a great place to find my wedding dress. I had been to a few other places and just didn't seem to get the help to find a dress. Amanda at the Wedding Belle, I described the kind of dress I was looking for. She pulled some dresses, all looked great but then there was the one that looked perfect! It was a floor model and it fit perfect, so I was able to get a discount! Thank you Amanda and The Wedding Belle. Yes I already did recomend this place to a friend who was getting married and she bought her dress there too.

As a plus size bride, I was very worried about my wedding dress shopping experience. I was afraid that a time that was supposed to be magical and fun-filled was going to be disappointing and embarrassing as I might not be able to try on the dresses I wanted. So after doing a lot of research, I decided to make my first stop the Wedding Bell in Tacoma, and I am so glad I did!Their staff made me feel at ease right away, and I had a huge selection from my favorite designers to choose from and try on. More than that, the owner, Kim, was amazing and contacted the designer directly for me to make sure I could get the custom changes to the dress that I wanted in time for my wedding and in my budget! I couldn't be happier with my entire experience, I felt gorgeous in my gown and I felt like I got to have a wonderful bridal experience with The Wedding Bell. THANK YOU!

Awesome experience!!!! Kim was so helpful and responsive to fit me in for an appointment and help find a dress last minute. Ashley was absolutely wonderful to work with!!! Thank you Ashley! She took time to understand what I was looking for, accessorized the gown, and I was set to go. She made the process so easy and quick. I would definitely recommend The Wedding Bell!!!!!

The Wedding Bell was great to work with during the stressful time of Wedding Dress shopping. I met with Ashley (manager of the store) and she was AMAZING! I went to many other bridal stores and nothing compared to the service I received at The Wedding Bell. Ashley helped me find my dream dress and did not pressure me once into buying. It is wonderful that they offer in store financing and storage for my dress until I need it :)I am very happy that I chose to purchase my dress at The Wedding Bell!

I went The Wedding Bell after trying on 35+ gowns but never feeling like a bride. I worked with Ashley, who was wonderful and spent a good amount of time asking me about my wedding, what I like, don't like and made my Mom feel comfortable as well. Ashley found a variety of gowns and showed me how to make them my own with beading and bling. She found a beautiful Aire Barcelona gown for me that was beautiful but needed a little special something. She then showed me a georgous Essence of Australia belt that could be sewn into it AND a cool vintage-inspired head-peice in lieu of a veil. The look altogether was perfect!We also got the bridesmaid dresses there and Ashley helped me choose some options that would compliment all figures so my girls could all choose a different dress. Jessie coordinated with all the girls who were scattered across the state, in Indiana, and Canada! Anytime we had a question or needed some advice, Ashley or Jessie would immediately respond. My gown and the girls dresses even came in early! Everything fit well and the girls were very happy with their selections :)I would recommend The Wedding Bell to anyone. The ladies are fantastic, the shop is cute, and the selection great!

I went to this store as a recommendation from my sister in law to shop for bridesmaid dresses. This is where she bought hers. My only complaint is the dresses that I wanted to see from the website many of them were not sold at the store anymore, which really bummed me out. I ended up buying better one's for my ladies that I could never imagine finding, but if you have something on your website you should have it in the store. My salesperson, Jessica, was AMAZING! So helpful. My only other concern is the fact they do not do in house seamstressing. My ladies had to go find their own tailors and some got theirs fixed and some didn't depending on their budget. That was the only thing that frustrated me, but it worked out since my ladies were all over the state they didn't have to drive over :) This place has a HUGE selection of dresses at all price points so I do recommend this.

All the staff at the Wedding bell are extremely nice and very helpful. The atmosphere at the Wedding bell is classy yet relaxed. It was such a breath of fresh air after having a terrible experience at Weddings With Joy in Lacey, where the staff was pushy and generally unfriendly. Ashley Taylor was fabulous, not only while purchasing my dress, but after as well. She helped us problem solve to find the right ivory colored shirts for the groomsmen (which was a nightmare b/c so many are yellow not cream ivory) and even let me bounce ideas off of her about our wedding decor and what type of bridal wrap I should wear! It was so nice to know I had someone who would help me without hesitation. I would definitely recommend this bridal boutique to any bride to be!!

I had the best experience at the Wedding Bell. I told them how much I wanted to spend and what I wanted my dress to look like. I picked out a few and they picked out a few. I tried on three dresses and loved every single one of them. Two of the ones I loved were ones that the girls picked out for me. Looking at pictures makes me love my dress even more!!! It was beautiful and a pretty good price.

This review is a bit overdue. I ended up buying my dress off the sales floor and ordering a veil in November of 2009, my wedding was August 2010. Prior to arriving, I didn't know they were also having a sale. Bonus! I got a discount on accessories too! They do not have in-house alterations, but they recommended Beth Parks to me. I second this recommendation! Beth works magic with dresses. I had already been to 2 other bridal shops, and lets just say I couldn't get out of those stores fast enough. The Wedding Bell was far beyond my expectations. A friend actually recommended the place, she didn't end up finding her dress there but had great things to say about it.I believe my appointment was set to be with Jessie, both she and Ashley (Manager) ended up helping me. They pretty much picked the dresses for me to try on because I had no clue what I wanted anymore. I surrendered to their expertise and I'm glad I did. I went through the aisles with my mom and maid of honor and said "no" to every suggestion and I doubted that I'd look good in the dresses I actually liked. The dress I ended up with was the one I really loved on the hanger, but doubted I could pull off. Everyone else knew when I walked out of the dressing room that it was "the one." I was afraid to finally pick a dress, but I was so happy with my choice. The ladies were so sweet, helpful and patient! I had a great experience here and it was well worth the 30 mile drive it took to get me there!

Loved my dress and the service I got when I went in to find it!

Unfortunately I didn't purchase my wedding dress with The Wedding Bell, but I wish I had! When I went there to look for bridesmaid dresses they were very helpful - I wanted silver dresses and did not want them to look grey. My consultant, Jessie, was able to point me to a fabric that would do exactly what I wanted. She was also very confident that I would love a style that, to be honest, looked not-so-great on the hanger... but it was amazing on my girls! I guess she knows her dresses :) The whole ordering process was very easy -- be aware though, dresses here (as with anywhere else of the same quality) take a while to come in after you order them, so be proactive and get on the bridesmaid dress hunt sooner rather than later! Overall I had an amazing experience at The Wedding Bell and I would definitely (and already have) recommend looking for dresses - wedding, bridesmaids, or even prom - here as there service was great!

What a wonderful wedding dress!

The Wedding Bell was the first place that I went to try on dresses after I got engaged. I tried on quite a few dresses and there was one in particular that stood out above all the rest. I fell in love with it and really liked how it felt and looked on me. I decided to shop around and see what else was available at other stores. After going to four other stores I knew that nothing else compared to what I had found at the Wedding Bell. It is definitely the perfect little shop to find your perfect wedding gown for your perfect day!

I went to Demetrios Bridal, David's Bridal, and The Wedding Bell in search of my perfect wedding gown, and I can say hands down that The Wedding Bell blew the other two completely out of the water. Not only were most od the dresses extremely reasonable in price (and you're getting high quality pieces for your money), but the staff were so patient as I tried literally every gown in the store on, and were just as excited as I was when I found "the one." They made me feel beautiful even though I did not fit in hardly any of their sample sizes, and helped me to not feel insecure trying things on! They were very prompt in informing me when the dress came in, and I got a fantastic deal on it! (Go after the bridal expo, they have great coupons) The woman who owns the shop and does the alterations, Beth, is a little bit pricey (my alterations were more than my gown, but I lost a significant amount of weight, so that was kind of expected) but she does absolutely GORGEOUS work. She took my dress down nearly two sizes and you never would have been able to tell! She cares tremendously about how you look when you walk down the aisle, and has no problems doing multiple fittings and alterations to ensure that everything looks perfect on your big day. It was worth absolutely every penny to have her taking care of everything. Yes, you do have to go to her house to pick up your dress, but only if it's during the peak of wedding season. She cares so much about doing a good job on the alterations that she does them full time at her house during June. To top it all off, when I came back from honeymoon, I received a thank you card from them. Now that's what I call great service!

I love my dress! The people at the shop were very kind and helpful. Best of all they were not pushy and gave me the time I needed to decide on a dress! They never made me feel pressured or rushed. I would recommend them to anyone

Each member of the staff at The Wedding Bell deserves a pat on the back and a round of applause for making my dress literally fit like a glove all night and getting it ready in time! We ordered in July and it arrived a month before the wedding needing it taken in at the bust and when I picked it up a week before the wedding I had a hard time getting myself out! Beth, the seamstress, also picked out a gorgeous dress for my mom a WEEK before the wedding which she got sooo many raves and reviews about!! I got my whole attire - shoes, veil, hair comb/tiara, dress at the shop and this was the ONLY shop I went to!! If you're looking for a unique, one of a kind, special dress this is the place to go... they make you feel like a princess!

One of the best decisions I made throughout my wedding planning process was to walk into The Wedding Bell one day on my lunch break...just to take a peak at some dresses. I immediately fell in love with the quaint boutique setting, attentive and fun staff (mostly family of the owner, Beth) and the beautiful, yet affordable gowns. We ended up purchasing my bridal gown, the bridesmaid dresses, flower girl dress and my Mom's dress through them. We hit some bumps along the way...the bridesmaids dresses I picked had been just been discontinued in the color I wanted, so we had to start from square one finding another dress I liked for my girls. Not a problem though, they took their time working with me to find exactly what I was looking for! Then, my mom waited until the LAST minute to order her dress and it came one week before the wedding...none of us liked it...so, we found another and got it in 2 days before the wedding! It needed several alterations and Beth put in extra hours just to see that it was done on time and done well! Throughout all of that chaos with both situations, Beth and her crew managed to smile and offer their time and devotion to making us happy customers. I truly feel that had I chosen to do business elsewhere, I never would have received the support and quality of service I received at the Wedding Bell. I never doubted their willingness to go above and beyond to provide excellent customer service. I have to say, my time spent at The Wedding Bell was fun, stress-free and very memorable! I highly recommend them to any brides I come accross.

thanks to the staff at the wedding bell for helping me find my perfect dress! you guys were awesome!

The girls at The Wedding Bell were helpful while trying to find my wedding dress. I had been to practically every Seattle area dress store, but I found my perfect dress at The Wedding Bell! Everyone who works there is friendly and want to make you happy. I thought my dress was a little expensive but in retrospect, everything related to weddings was expensive! Good job Wedding Bell!

As an out of state bride I had only one day to search for a dress with my mother and sister. I wanted to find “the dress” but I also wanted to have a good time doing it. I chose Wedding Bell Bride because of all the great reviews I read online, but I admit it, I still wondered if I would eventually have to go to an expensive salon in Seattle to get the shopping experience I wanted. Well, the reviews were right. The customer service at this shop surpassed my expectations. The experience was great and the consultants know their stuff. They quickly led us in the right direction, were very patient and found me a dress that made me feel more like a bride than I thought I could at 40. The dress is everything I could want, the price was very reasonable; they covered everything I needed to complete the outfit and made the entire experience a pleasure. This shop is a true gem!
