The Boutique
Located on the main floor of Halifax's historic Stoddard House, built in 1828, Kind Bridal combines modern elegance with historic charm.
We offer a one-of-a-kind private bridal shopping experience that we know you will love. The boutique is open by appointment only, so please be sure to book an consultation before you stop by.
​
Unfortunately the building is not accessible and the boutique is located up a set of stairs. If you would like a private wedding dress shopping experience somewhere that is accessible to you please email us directly, and we can arrange a time to bring the gowns to you!
Nestled within Kind Bridal you will find Rhiannon Lawrence Alterations, who can assist you and your bridal party to alter your gowns and dresses to perfection.​
Behind The Brand
Hi there,
​
It's so nice to meet you! My name is Courtney, and I am the owner of Kind Bridal.
​
I have worked in the wedding and events industry for over ten years, and have been so lucky to call Halifax my home for the past four years. Through my experience in the events industry I have accomplished everything from organizing weddings for over 800 guests, to pinning, bustling, and sewing brides into their gowns in a pinch, and even coaxing a baby racoon into a cake box (be sure to ask me for the story when you come into the boutique).
​
I intimately understand how much goes into making your special day perfect. I also know it's all the little memories you make along the way, like the day you choose your dream dress, knowing it's the kindest option.
​
I knew I wanted to create my own brand focused on a sustainable approach to bridal creation, and Canadian designers who pay their seamstress a living wage. The opportunity to now open Kind Bridal feels like a dream that I can't wait to share with you.
​
Kindly,
Courtney
