    Beautiful dresses they have!
    Darlene N.

    My review will be very detailed because of the wonderful experience I had but I will say that I did say YES to the DRESS! This place is a fun, seamless and informative experience. Now to the details! I did a thorough online search to find a place to go to where I may have luck finding "the dress"! My search resulted in this website listing. I loved the concept that it was a consignment shop that included new and vintage dresses. The reviews were very good. I had just had an engagement party a few days before so I decided to make my appointment since I was still on a high from the celebration. Kelly is the owner and when I made the initial appointment weeks prior, she was friendly. She asked me to call on the day of my appointment to confirm that I'm still coming and if I'm bringing someone. When I called on the day of, I didn't want to get off the phone with her! She was a wealth of so much information as she has been in business over 20 years! What I liked is that she will give you great saving tips that bridal salons won't. For example, she would suggest shopping around on a website like Amazon for dress/jewelry accessories or actually comparing the price of her dresses to other bridal salons. I actually did that and found I was really saving about $700 on my dress and dress accessories. Masks are REQUIRED!! Unfortunately I was traveling in rush hour traffic and construction and was going to be a 1/2 late. Called Kelly, left a message. She called back, was very understanding and told me she would see me when we got there. My nerves calmed, LOL. When I finally arrived with my friend on 9/14/21, the place on the outside looked really small but when you walk in, you see all of these gorgeous dresses in the front of the store and then many many more in the back. I was so excited!! I immediately liked that we were the only ones in the shop so we had her full attention. When you're in a bridal salon, there are always additional brides there also looking and trying on dresses so the focus isn't solely on you. Kelly first had to figure out my wedding dress size because you know it's different from your normal dress size. She then started bringing some dresses out based on the requested pictures I sent to her of dress styles I liked. I tried on some beautiful dresses but unfortunately they were too big. Then the straight dresses I tried on were too small because of how my shape is. I wanted to consider the dresses I liked that were too big but Kelly advised me that it's best to find a dress that is actually my size. The alterations would be really costly I'm sure. It was getting near closing time and Kelly told me that I now have an idea of what kind of dress looks good on me and approximate size. I was a little sad because it seemed like the end of the road. But!! Kelly showed me one last dress that was about 2 sizes smaller than the smallest size dress I tried on. I told her "hey, let's see! Let me try it on." I tried it on and Kelly was able to zip it up all the way! When I looked at myself in the mirror, I just about cried! Kelly was excited for me, had me pose and everything! She let me actually look at the tag to see what the designer's regular price is and then told me what she would sell it for me for which was extremely affordable and an added plus was that it actually was a new dress. I was saving so much money! Kelly didn't PRESSURE ME which I so appreciated. She told me to sleep on it and decide. I couldn't stop thinking about the dress! I actually found a bridal salon who had the same dress and for my size was actually charging more money than the original designer price on the tag that Kelly showed me. There was only one of that dress so I immediately called her the next day to tell her I wanted the dress. She even has layaway!! She later told me that she was glad that I decided to get the dress because it was gorgeous on me. NOTE: the photos I shared are not of my actual dress but ones I tried on to show you styles of what they have. I will update with photos of my "yes" dress after my wedding. I warmed up to her so much I wanted to invite her to the wedding. The shop is about 40 minutes away from me in good traffic but it was so worth the drive. I Do Consignment shop gave me the best experience and I assure you it will for you too. Plus sizes are available! Operating hours are great as she has days that she is open till late evening for convenience. The money I saved I am happy to say went toward the deposit for our wedding photographer which is a big deal because wedding expenses add up very quickly. Thank you thank you for such a wonderful experience and Kelly for your kindness, patience and expertise. My play Mom's daughter got engaged the exact same day I did and I have already recommended this place to her. A+++++ Experience!!

    This is the dress that I ended up picking, and I just love it! Pictures do not do it justice.

    I LOVED my experience at I Do Bridal and with Kelly! I had gone to a few other bridal shops and liked their dresses, but wasn't comfortable spending thousands on a dress, and I was really hoping to buy something used for environmental reasons. I also really wanted a unique style, and I found a lot of the new dresses I was trying on very similar. Thankfully, I found I Do Bridal online and I'm so happy I did! I made an appointment in advance and sent Kelly a few pictures I liked for reference. When I got there she had a bunch of beautiful options all ready for me, and was able to spend a full 90 minutes with me and my mom. She was super patient as I tried on many different styles, and kept pulling new and interesting options from her massive inventory. I tried on maybe ten dresses, which ranged from never worn contemporary styles to vintage 1960s dresses. After the first appointment I had pretty much decided what I wanted, but thought I should sleep on it. Kelly was super nice and didn't push for a sale at all. I ended up coming back two days later and bought the perfect, unique, vintage dress of my dreams! At the second appointment Kelly showed me different veils that might work with my dress and I also tried on some cute pant suits for my rehearsal dinner and ended up getting one of those too. The attached photos are some of the dresses I tried on, including the one I picked, before alterations. I'll post updated pictures from the wedding after alterations! Kelly's prices are so so affordable, I ended up with a wedding dress AND a rehearsal outfit for less than a third of what I might have paid for just a new dress. She also lets you store your dress securely at her store and connects you with her own tailor who can do alterations on a much shorter timeline than I've seen with any other wedding dress tailor (6 weeks as opposed to the 4 months I was quoted at boutiques selling new dresses). I'd recommend that everyone looking for beautiful and affordable dresses go see Kelly, she's the best!

    If you're looking for an affordable, vintage style gown-- seriously look no further. I planned my entire Chicago-area wedding from Seattle and the owner Kelly was seriously one of my favorite people to work with. She answered all of my questions over the phone prior to my dress appointment, which I booked 11 months before my wedding. I knew from my research that this was going to be the place where I bought my dress and I was right. During my appointment Kelly pulled about 10 dresses that fit the description of what I was looking for. Every. Single. One. Looked. Amazing. She's like the fairy godmother of wedding dresses. Her selection is unreal-- hundreds if not thousands of dresses from all eras. She pulled 10 from the back and they were all my style. But of course I had to choose THE DRESS for me and that ended up being a Maggie Sottero MUCH LESS than regular wedding boutiques. Kelly also gave me photography, florist, and other wedding tips. The seamstress she recommends, Adela, is also very talented and affordable. It was also BEYOND helpful that as an out of town bride I could store my dress free of charge at Kelly's shop for nearly a year before my big day. I can't thank Kelly enough for making the dress shopping and dress fitting process seamless!

    This place isn't going to be for everybody. Frankly, it wasn't necessarily for me. But I had been to the beautiful boutiques all around the city, sipped champagne and tried on the designer dresses and had even purchased a dress at BHLDN which ended up getting returned because they and their products are a disaster (that's for a separate review) and was willing to give this place a shot. When I arrived, the appointment before me was running over and Kelly made little effort to assist me and my Mom while she helped this other bride. Instead she sent us into a room PACKED with dresses. All in plastic bags so you couldn't really see them. And shoved so tightly together you could barely even pull them out. Talking about the dresses in the third person ("she's going to need to be hemmed), Kelly grabbed one dress she thought might work, then pointed to a row and told me to take dresses from there. I literally had to fight - FIGHT - to climb through the dresses. It was both frustrating and comical. Annoyed, Mom and I grabbed a few dresses, took ourselves to a dressing room and decided to try on a few and then go. Only.....when I tried on the one dress that Kelly had grabbed...it fit. I didn't just fit. It was the one. I felt comfortable and beautiful and bridal. Turns out it was brand new. And it cost less than that stupid BHLDN dress. The moral of my story is, if you need the "experience" of bridal dress shopping don't go here. But once you're over that, be open to wherever your dream dress could be. Mine was here.

    I knew Id buy my dress frm Kelly @I Do Bridal Consignment after seeing her in action w/2 of my other friends. Friendly, kind, priced well.

    I always knew I'd find my perfect dress with Kelly at I Do Bridal Consignment, especially after seeing two of my best friends successfully find theirs here. These two friends travelled from across the country to shop here. When I met Kelly, I immediately knew why. Kelly knows her inventory incredibly well, worked within my price range, and helped me narrow down what style I wanted. She makes it a magical yet practical experience. I bought the third dress I tried on--a name brand, 100% silk dress for a fraction of what it would have been on the rack. Kelly is flexible with storage, refers to other friendly local vendors, and goes above and beyond with scheduling. She also goes above and beyond with customers. I'd recommend I Do Consignment a thousand times over to anyone.

    Kelly has a fantastic selection and is so great at helping you find a dress. Before my appointment, I sent Kelly pictures of dresses that I liked. By the time I arrived, Kelly had a few dresses pulled out for me. She listened to my opinions on each dress and worked to find me the perfect one. I bought my veil and an accessory here as well and they were both excellent. Prices are incredibly affordable! Thank you so much!

    I went here with my sister who will be getting married soon. What a great place and experience. Kelly the owner made my sister feel like a princess...Heck a Queen! With all the dresses around the store it was amazing how she seemed to pick out dresses that fit her style and personality with ease. I like how she talks to you and give you advice on what and how to stand to take the pictures for your wedding. She answers all your questions and she welcomes them with a smile. I wish I could post a picture of my sister's dress but somethings have to be a surprise so I will have to wait until after the wedding. What I like is that when you are finished you will have a custom dress. The dress that my sister bought is going to look different after she gets the alterations and design change. This dress will be like no one else's...That is a true plus!!! I didn't know what to expect when we went into the store but I am sure glad that we did because not only did she find a gem in this shop we found Kelly and that is priceless. I say if you are looking for that perfect dress, unique and beautiful then this is the shop for you!!! Enjoy!!!!

At the height of violence in our streets I tried to do my best by supporting some of these businesses. During this phase 18th street looked like a ghost town on a Saturday.

If you are a fan of the show like I am, then, the interior will look familiar to you because it was in a seen on the show (I think it was season 3). I immediately recognized the store and thought to myself "cool" and great choice. Anyhow, if you find yourself in the area, pop in and check it out.

Maybe you will find that one unique thing that you have been looking for that you didn't realize you need. I mean, you never know unless you check it out.
