Beginnings
Gorgeous Gowns | Affordable Prices | Casual Atmosphere Bridal Traditions was founded by, Wilkes County, native Kelly K. Shumate at just 20 years of age. She opened her first store front in April of 2000, and worked the business part-time while working another full-time job. She used a portion of each paycheck to buy inventory, and pay the other startup expenses for the business. Although is was a slow process, Kelly was able to build the business without having to go into debt for anything other than the building that houses Bridal Traditions and beYoutiful Prom Boutique. It was very important to her not to have a cloud of debt hanging over her as she was growing the business. After a few years she was able to downgrade her full-time job to part-time so that she could spend more time in the shop, then in 2008 Kelly left her "real" job in retail behind to operate Bridal Traditions full-time! "I had so much help in those first years from my parents and friends, that put in a LOT of volunteer hours to help me build a dream. I am so grateful for everyone of them, because there is no way that I could have done this on my own!" Kelly works hard seeking out quality merchandise that can be offered at reasonable prices. Everything in the store is brand new from reputable designers and manufacturers; Bridal Traditions does not sell used or consignment merchandise, and you will not find multiples of the same dress. "I love to offer a variety of styles so our customers can have a unique dress that fits their unique style and personality." says, Kelly. Since opening her doors, Kelly has helped hundreds of women and girls find “the” dress for their special event. "What I enjoy the absolute most is being able to put a dress on a girl who thinks, "nothing will look good on me", and being there when she sees herself as beautiful! That big smile is EVERYTHING!" Kelly also feels that it is very important to give back to the community and the world in which she lives, so a portion of all Bridal Traditions gross profits are donated to local, national, and international charities.
