    Adorned in Grace is wonderful!

    Adorned in Grace has amazing inventory, prices and staff. I am so thankful it exists and was happy to contribute to a meaningful cause. I bought my wedding dress from them, and returned it a year later after the wedding to be reused. Thank you Adorned in Grace!

    I found the dress of my DREAMS here!

    LOVE this shop and what they stand for! I was also able to find the dress of my DREAMS at an affordable price. All of their dresses are in great shape for being used, and only the standard adjustments needed to be made to my dress in order to receive the perfect fit. I highly recommend!

    Great organization and great selection

    I really did not know what to expect since the dresses are all donated, but the store has a large selection and the volunteers have a good eye for fashion. Dresses are sold as-is, and from what we could tell, dresses don't stay long on the racks! I did fall in love with a dress that was damaged beyond repair, but I found another one that I also loved that is perfect for me and my body type. The seamstress who consults there will do the rest!

    Amazing Experience and Value

    What a wonderful experience it was to get my dress here. The sales team were all very friendly and not thrown by a lesbian couple trying dresses on at the same time.
    Great selection of plus size dresses and at amazing prices!

    Beautiful Budget Dresses and a Great Cause!

    I had an amazing experience buying a wedding gown here for the big day! The first visit I wasn't able to find something but the staff was incredibly friendly, helpful and gave me information about their cause. On the second trip I was able to find a beauitful gown that fit like a glove. One recommendation for future shoppers is to look right after big wedding seasons (end of August, end of October, mid-January, etc.). There seems to be more dresses then. Despite the fact that I tried on quite a few dresses, the staff were very patience. When I finally had the big "moment" where I found my dress, they provided smiles and a box of tissues! On Saturdays (at least at the time I went) they have someone who can help tailor gowns or at least give recommendations for tailoring and add-ons. This was very helpful! They also give a list of recommended dry-cleaners that use eco-friendly practices in the area. Aside from the great deal budget-wise it also just felt great to knowing that the money for my dress went to a great cause!

    Great people, prices, and dresses

    Found several dresses that fit perfectly and ended up getting the first one I tried on. The ladies at the store were very kind and prices are much more reasonable because dresses are used (like worn once before). Highly recommend! Plus, you are supporting a great cause. What better feeling than to know that your wedding is helping other women get out of bad situations.

    Love this shop and their mission

    So special to be able to buy a wedding dress knowing the organization's cause is so great. The shop has a wide variety of sizes and styles with wonderful volunteers waiting to help you. Such a gem of an organization!

    I found my dream dress here! I never in my wildest dreams thought I would find such a specific style as the dress I was looking for, but they had it!! I am so excited to have supported such a great cause. I am a Christian and a big supporter of getting girls out of human trafficking. It was a no brained to look for and purchase my dress from them. I'm so excited that a place like this exists. The staff were wonderful!!

    I could not be happier with my decision to purchase my wedding dress from Adorned in Grace. I initially bought a dress from the Brides for a Cause Dress Dash, but was having second thoughts especially since the dress needed a lot of repairs and just wasn't the dress that I could imagine myself getting married in. I also didn't want to spend a lot of money on a wedding dress (especially since i was only going to wear it for one day) and wanted my purchase to go to a good cause.

    So on a rainy Friday afternoon, my mom and I drove to Adorned in Grace, and with no expectations at all (and no appointment, which is not necessary), and I went in looking for my dream dress. Since I was from out-of-town, but wanted to buy my dress in Portland, I was under a bit of pressure to find a dress during my visits there. TIP: Come in the afternoon during a weekday if possible, as we were the only ones in the store!

    Adorned is so well organized, clean and inviting and it made my frantic search looking for "the dress" a much more pleasant experience. The ladies that work there are an absolute gem, and so sweet, kind, and helpful without being one bit overbearing or pushy. Chatting with them and getting their feedback made my dress buying experience so much more enjoyable and memorable.

    I finally found the dress of my dreams (originally $3000, brand new, six layers of the most gorgeous, soft silk and discounted to $650) from a UK designer that I would not have been able to purchase from a boutique in Portland; apparently it was donated by another out-of-town boutique. When I put on the dress, I teared up because I knew this was it! Above all, I felt so happy to support a wonderful cause, because let's face it, Portland has a serious problem with sex-trafficking and we should all be supportive of empowering women who are in search of a better life.

    Thank you to Adorned in Grace for making me look and feel my very best on my wedding day!!

    All of the gowns at Adorned in Grace are donated and the proceeds go completely towards sex trafficking victims. My fiance and I went to the Raleigh Hills location. The staff was very helpful from the first moment we walked in. They didn’t hover and allowed us to browse the dresses. There was a wide variety of dress styles sorted by size and price. There is a pricier section with designer gowns, an under $100 section, and a vintage section. I loved how all of the dresses come with a letter from the previous owner. Some letters have well wishes, some have stories of the gown’s first wedding day. Wedding gowns are a special thing and I loved seeing the history of the dresses. After much searching, I found the perfect dress! It fit perfectly and it was only $200! I needed to hem it a little and the staff provided suggestions for local tailors they had worked with before. It was an easy and wonderful experience overall!

    I found my bridal shoes and veil here. They had so many options and at a great price. Even better, the proceeds go to charity. Highly recommend this place for a dress and/or accessories.

    Amazing organization with a meaningful mission. Could not have felt better about my purchase. It was hard for me to justify spending so much money for a dress I'd wear for one day, when there are so many women in the world far less privileged than I am. Adorned in Grace gave me an opportunity to make my dress purchase a donation to the ever important issue of human trafficking. Beyond that, I saved so much money.

    I had a lot of fun trying on a dozen different wedding dresses in this shop. Everything was very relaxed and yet exciting. I found a very nice dress for $100 and got some good advice on what I could do (alterations-wise) if I wanted to make it more my own. Everything in the wedding industry seems to be about how much one can charge, it was nice to give money to an actual cause that helps so many right in my city.

    I got my wedding dress here and couldn't be more happy. It is hit or miss when you come here but I tell ya, I hit the jackpot!! It was exactly what I wanted and I didn't even need any alterations! The best part was that my money went to an amazing cause. I am so thankful for this business and that my wedding could reflect their work.

    Incredible! I love what they're doing here. All the dresses are donated (in mint condition!), all the (friendly!) workers are volunteers, and the (great!) space is donated by Fred Meyer, so basically 100% of the profits go to helping women escape or avoid sex trafficking! That fact makes my dress all the more beautiful and memorable. Also, the service was stellar. In particular, Amanda was extremely attentive and knowledgeable. I just love it. This is what all bridal stores should be.

    Found the dress of her dreams

    After trying on wedding dresses at all the area bridal shops, we came to Adorned in Grace. We had a strict budget and needed a dress that would not take a long time to arrive as she was taking the dress with her abroad, to get married months later. She found the ‘princess dress’ she longed for at Adorned in Grace! It fit her perfectly and was indeed the most beautiful dress ever! The atmosphere at Adorned in Grace was relaxing and fun. We were not rushed and had great mirrors and dressing room area. The store assistant was very helpful in every way and helped us find a veil to match right there too. Months later, I found my Mother of the Bride dress there. Her wedding pictures in front of a Spanish castle were spectacular with her dress perfect for the setting!

    I was recommended by the Ainsworth house to look at this venue for my wedding dress. Once I heard about their cause, I was more intrigued. I was able to get an amazing dress for a great value. The staff, who volunteer 100% of their time were extremely helpful. We even got our unique cake topper there as well as our flower girl dresses. This is a great cause that should be supported and once brides see these prices, they wouldn't want to shop any where else.

    The staff at Adorned in Grace were very knowledgeable and helped me find the perfect dress for my wedding! Its hard to describe how great I feel about buying my wedding dress to help support such a wonderful cause. I would recommended this store to ANYONE who is getting married. The prices were great and they had an extremely large selection. I even liked their selection more than some of the other bridal shops I looked in.

    Adorned in Grace has made true a fantastic idea! This non-profit bridal shop benefits local, at-risk girls, specifically those who may be victims of sex trafficking. All of the dresses are donated, either lightly worn or even new (sometimes other shops donate older inventory or close). I absolutely scored on the perfect dress (it happened to be new with the quite extravagant original price tag still attached, so I knew just how good of a deal I was getting). The staff are all volunteers and love what they do. I was dress shopping alone because I had just moved here and didn't have friends or family to go with me. The volunteers were so warm and helpful, offering great advice, and helped fill that missing presence. The prices are great, the dresses are beautiful, all cleaned thoroughly, and they have a constantly changing inventory so keep going back if you don't find your dress the first visit! There is also an excellent variety of modern, classic, and vintage options. The message and action for women's empowerment make this shop a real winner! Please support them.

    Beautiful Dresses for a great deal!

    The store isn't very large, which actually was really nice for me, because it made it less hectic. I just went over to the size range I knew would fit and selected several off the rack to try first. I was provided a dressing room, and help getting all the dresses over there. Some dresses fit according to size, and other's didn't. It really varied based on what the previous bride had done for alterations. So when I found my perfect dress, it was almost like a gained a sister bride because we loved the same style and our sizes/adjustments were nearly on par! Loved the experience, got to help an awesome cause, and got an amazing deal!

    My experience at Adorned in Grace was better than I could have hoped for. The atmosphere was very laid back so it was not overwhelming. You are allowed to look at and try on any of the dresses in the shop but they are arranged by size so it is easy to find things in your size. The ladies working in the shop were helpful but not pushy. Another great thing about this place is that it is non-profit; all proceeds go toward helping victims of human trafficking.

    This non-profit organization provides such wonderful service. The donated dresses were beautifully displayed. While the selection wasn't as diverse as an expensive bridal shop, there were enough options to make my selection difficult. And the price was right - I was able to afford two dresses for less than half of what I would have paid for one dress at the premium bridal shops.
