If you're in Pdx go here first!

I found my dress at charlotte's a couple of weeks ago and It was a magical. My stylist Stephanie found exactly what I was looking for. I'm obsessed with my dress I can't wait to wear it on my wedding day!!!

The boutique and the private rooms are stunning. It was also a huge plus that they have onsite parking.

I'm normally a size 16 and as a plus size bride I was very nervous to go dress shopping. Stephanie made me feel so comfortable and beautiful even before I found the one. I could not have asked for a better experience!!!!

The best experience!

Charlotte's Weddings was my third stop on my first day of dress shopping. Earlier that day I hadn't found anything I was really in love with and was kind of underwhelmed with the experience. My stylist Ruby listened so well to what my experience had been earlier that day and I feel like she really understood what I liked and didn't like. I am not the most enthusiastic shopper but I feel like Ruby made it as relaxing and comfortable as possible. Every dress I tried on at Charlotte's was such high quality (way nicer than any of the other places I had been) and I literally could have picked any of the dresses and been happy! My mom and sister were also super impressed with the experience and felt like Ruby really cared and was thoughtful about what dresses she had me try on. It really was the best experience and I would highly recommend if you're in the Portland area!

Highly recommend!

I recently bought my dress from Charlotte’s and working with Stephanie made the experience so special. She was attentive, kind, funny, supportive, and so patient! I got stuck deciding between two dresses and she let me take my time and work through my vision for the day. It felt like shopping with a good friend rather than a stylist I just met. The store itself is amazing and the private rooms were beautiful. Can’t recommend enough!

Owner

About Krysta

"I started helping brides in 2005 and I purchased the store in 2007. I have to say after helping my very first bride I was hooked. I came from the weight loss industry and I loved helping people, especially women, find their beauty and confidence.

I’ve made so many amazing connections throughout the years and have helped many of my brides at their actual weddings. I’ve formed these incredible connections with the brides and their families. It’s also been such an incredible gift to help my closest friends find their dream dresses.

It truly is an incredible experience that we get to be a part of and such an honor that we are trusted to help make this monumental decision."

Manager

About Lindsey

"I have worked at Charlotte’s since 2010 and wow, does time fly! My favorite part about working with brides is their stories.

Engagement stories, wedding ideas and visions, the connections between the bride and the people she brought with her to her appointment, what brought her to Charlotte’s, and of course the story we help them create in finding their perfect wedding gown.

I love seeing that moment it clicks that this will be the gown she walks down the aisle in. That moment is different for each bride, but it’s always so special and it’s such an amazing thing to be a part of."

Bridal Stylist

About Stephanie

"I have been a Bridal Stylist at Charlotte’s since 2016. The thing I love most about working with brides is getting to know each woman that I meet and their friends and families. I love getting to know their love stories and the chance to be a part of their stories by helping them find their dress. It’s a truly amazing experience that I would not be able to have in any other job."

Stephanie has also been a finalist for Do You Speak Bride Stylist of the Year 2019!

Kind words from our brides...

"Absolutely loved my experience here and Stephanie was beyond fantastic! She listened to what my vision was for my day and selected a few gowns for me to try on, one of which turned out to be THE ONE and I couldn’t be more thrilled! She made everything so easy and stress-free, it felt like having a friend helping me out rather than someone I’d just met. Highly recommend Charlotte’s (and Stephanie!) to any other brides out there looking for their dream dress."- Allie
