Bespoke Bridal Bliss - The Yards, Kettering
Introducing Bespoke Bridal Bliss, the newest addition to Kettering’s small business community!
You can find this gorgeous boutique that’s full of sparkle, satin, lace, and pearls at The Yards complex, where you’ll be welcomed by mum and daughters dream team Andrea, Chloe, and Lucy.
Offering a professional and personalised shopping experience for brides-to-be, Bespoke Bridal Bliss opened earlier this year, and the team are enjoying helping people say yes to the dress!
I never imagined that I would be running a business with two of my children, it all feels very surreal. It’s a dream come true, and all came about with a chance encounter at a local wedding fair which I visited with Chloe and Lucy who are both engaged.Andrea - Bespoke Bridal Bliss
We met the owner of a bridal business who told us she would soon be selling it, and it got me thinking! The idea spiralled and Bespoke Bridal Bliss was born. We started off setting it up from home where we would go out to visit brides-to-be with a selection of dresses and bridal accessories.
With more and more dresses becoming part of our range, they were soon taking over my spare room, and the home visits were time consuming, so we decided to look into opening a shop in Kettering town centre where there are no other bridal boutiques.
The timing was perfect as a unit came up at The Yards which is an area we all love in the town, and it wasn’t long before we’d made it our own, getting the whole family involved with renovating and decorating the space, even the grandchildren! The family are so supportive which is fantastic especially as the girls are both busy mums and have other work commitments alongside the shop.
Together we have created a beautiful, elegant, and welcoming space which gives people the wow factor when they visit. We know it can be a daunting task selecting and trying-on wedding dresses, and we’re here to make it enjoyable and stress-free.
We offer appointments throughout the day and evening to fit round people’s commitments, we know how busy it can be planning and preparing for a wedding! Each bride-to-be and their shopping partners have the space to themselves for appointments where we will provide advice, assistance, and expertise along with a glass of prosecco to celebrate the occasion. Getting married is one of life’s huge milestones, and we want everyone to feel special.
There are a range of dresses by different designers to suit all styles, shapes, and budgets, with prices starting as low as £50 for end-of-line gowns, and nothing costing more than £1,000. We are a one-stop-shop for your wedding dress needs, and offer an alterations service, and sell a variety of veils and bridal accessories too.
What sets us apart is a service we provide where we can customise dresses to fit each bride-to-be’s unique vision. We have a lot of creativity and skills between us and can add more sparkle and lace, or take it away, and we can adjust all the little details and add accessories if that’s what the bride wants.
Having a business at The Yards is amazing, we have been made to feel very welcome, and we are enjoying being part of the local business community. We have recently held our first wedding fair event here which included a cocktail bar, music, free gifts, prizes, and more! We partnered with other small businesses who offer wedding services including catering, hair, photography, make-up, flowers and more. We are always happy to recommend others.
Looking back, it’s been a great few months. We’ve had smiles, laughter, and tears of the happy kind, both from us and our customers! It’s lovely meeting so many people and making new connections. We enjoy hearing about wedding plans, there are some wonderful weddings coming up and we feel proud that we are involved in them. It’s a brilliant feeling helping brides-to-be find the dress of their dreams, and we get a real buzz when they say yes to the dress!
Word is getting around that we are here, and we are looking forward to meeting new customers and seeing how the business grows. With a new supplier on board, and our dress range increasing, we are already thinking about the possibility of expanding, it’s exciting and so much fun doing this with my daughters!
Bespoke Bridal Bliss is open from Tuesday to Saturday 9am to 5pm, with flexible appointment options also available after hours. Whether you’re planning to pop in for a look or want to book a private appointment, Andrea, Chloe, and Lucy are ready to welcome you and help you find the dress of your dreams in a beautiful setting.
