- KrystaOwnerAbout 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. Iāve made so many amazing connections throughout the years and have helped many of my brides at their actual weddings. Iāve formed these incredible connections with the brides and their families. Itās 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." Learn more about our owner, Krysta, here: charlottesweddings.com/krysta
- LindseyManagerAbout Lindsey "I have worked at Charlotteās 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 Charlotteās, 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 itās always so special and itās such an amazing thing to be a part of." Learn more about our Manager, Lindsey, here: charlottesweddings.com/Lindsey
- StephanieBridal StylistAbout Stephanie "I have been a Bridal Stylist at Charlotteās 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. Itās 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 couldnāt be more thrilled! She made everything so easy and stress-free, it felt like having a friend helping me out rather than someone Iād just met. Highly recommend Charlotteās (and Stephanie!) to any other brides out there looking for their dream dress."- Allie Learn more about our stylist, Stephanie, here: charlottesweddings.com/stephanie
- HannahBridal StylistMy favorite part about working with brides is that I get the honor of helping empower them to find their dream dress that is a perfectly unique reflection of them. I love celebrating together when they find THE DRESS that makes them feel the most beautiful for one of the most important days of their lives!
- BrianaBridal StylistI love being a part of a brideās wedding dress journey and having the opportunity to help all brides feel beautiful, confident, and empowered. Getting to know each and every bride and their friends/family and seeing brides light up when they find āthe oneā always makes my day.
- MelanieBridal StylistAbout Melanie "The thing I love the most about working with brides is being able to help embrace who they are. These days beauty can feel like an unattainable concept, but there comes a moment in the appointment when the right dress fits perfectly in their vision and the bride is speechless and overcome with emotion. It is such a privilege to be a part of such a special time!" Kind words from our brides... "Working with Melanie at Charlotte's truly made the process of finding my dress so easy and fun. I had no clue what I wanted going into my appointment, but by the end of the day I had found the perfect dress, all thanks to Melanie's attentive listening and desire to make me feel like a beautiful bride! She was warm and easy to work with, and my mom and sisters expressed their appreciation for her days after the appointment as well. I'll never forget my experience, and I'd recommend working with Melanie at Charlotte's to any bride looking for her dream dress!"- Emma Learn more about our stylist, Melanie, here: charlottesweddings.com/melanie
- NicoleBridal StylistAbout Nicole "I have been working at Charlotteās since May of 2018 and it has seriously been the best year ever. I love being a part of such a memorable moment in every brideās life! Itās so fun to see pictures of everyoneās different visions and inspiration and then helping those dreams come to life." Kind words from our brides... "Found my dress on my very first visit! Sent some pictures to my stylist, Nicole, of dresses I wanted to try on and she had them ready for me when I was there. She was so uplifting and encouraging the entire time! Wasnāt pushy or anything. Really made me feel comfortable saying YES to the dress and I canāt wait until it comes in!"- Sara Learn more about our stylist, Nicole, here: charlottesweddings.com/Nicole

My mom and I had such a fantastic experience here with Leah! We were on a limited timeframe to find a dress since my mom was only in town for the weekend, and after visiting two ot...
her area stores the day before our visit to Charlotte's, we (I) was feeling discouraged and anxious. The moment we walked in the door and met Leah, her calm and personable demeanor put me at ease. She gave us a little tour of the shop and got us settled in an adorable private room - much different from the other shops where we were out in the open with a view of other groups. She listened with intention to what I thought I wanted and didn't want, and when she left the room to pull dresses I said to my mom, "I have a really good feeling about this." Every single dress she pulled was absolutely gorgeous, and each one got us closer to the dress I eventually picked. She gave me space to process, didn't push me to make a decision, and didn't make me feel like she was trying to sell us a dress; she made me feel like she truly was there to help me feel my best in my "I do" dress. And at the end, before getting back into the dress I fell in love with, she still gave me the opportunity to look around and grab a couple more that I just wanted to put on to rule out. Everything about the experience felt easy and fun. I would wholeheartedly recommend Charlotte's to every Portland area bride-to-be!

ues from my reactions to dresses. She curated an awesome collection that was a nice mix of styles and cuts. I felt beautiful in the very first dress and any pressure I had put on myself disappeared. I left my first appointment with three dresses in the running (which felt so great), slept on it and went back two days later to say 'oh hell yes to the dress!' My sister also found her dream dress at Charlotte's and I highly recommend. Great selection and team!

y nerves faded completely after about 15 minutes. My stylists Brianna and Stephanie were beyond amazing and they listened so well to what I was envisioning for the big day. We were all tearing up before I tried anything on. These insights helped them pick the perfect dress for me. They were so supportive as they asked thought-provoking questions to encourage me to be honest with how I felt in each dress. I had two other dress appointments as backups that day that I immediately cancelled. Nothing could possibly compare to what I felt as I saw myself in that dress. The one I said yes to was the first I tried on, and I compared every other dress to the first one. It was absolutely magical. I will highly recommend this beautiful shop to any bride-to-be.Ā

going to be the first shop on my journey, I gave her some rough ideas but also said I was willing to try on different styles to figure out what felt right on me.Ā
Very quickly, we got on the same page during the appointment. She was incredibly helpful in figuring out what I liked about a particular dress vs what I didn't like.
After several different dresses, we found the one. I still tried on a few more dresses to be certain, but kept going back to the one that felt right. I didn't expect to fall in love with a dress so quickly. But thanks to Leah and Charlotte's Weddings, I was able to purchase my dream dress.Ā
I could not be more grateful. And I could not recommend both Charlotte's Weddings and Leah highly enough.Ā

She truly went above and beyond to find me the perfect dress. We had the private suite, which made the experience even more special, and the mimosas were a lovely touch that made me feel pampered. The Polaroid camera pictures were such a unique and thoughtful addition, capturing all the special moments as I tried on each gown. Haleyās expertise and attention to detail were exceptional, and she helped me find a gown that I absolutely adore. The entire team at Charlotteās Wedding made me feel like a princess, and I couldnāt be happier with my choice. If you're looking for a wonderful experience and the perfect dress, Haley at Charlotte's Wedding is the one to see!

edule! She was so patient with me, and once we talked, she immediately helped me feel at ease because I was a little nervous about finding something I loved. I did let her know that I had bought a dress at anthropologie's sample gown sale, however did not have a bridal experience, and she invited me to bring it to the shop, which I thought was incredibly kind and above and beyond customer service considering it was from another business! During the call, she also walked through where I was in the dress buying process, what to expect at the appointment, and styles/items I was drawn to. By the end of the call and afterwards I was so excited for the dress try-on weekend. At the appointment, Hannah immediately helped my group get comfortable by being like an old friend, and she sat on the bridal round to sit and chat with us for awhile. We talked about how the appointments for the weekend had gone, if I had honed in on things more, and offered refreshments. She suggested that she would bring a couple dresses in that she had in mind, but I was so enamored with the dresses in the shop, I wanted to walk around a little bit and she was so nice to let me! When we went out there, she asked if I wanted to see the one that she had thought of after our call, to which I said yes and it was so pretty. After she had brought back refreshments, we went to the dressing room and she asked me which one I wanted to try on first, and I picked the one she thought would be my fave. Well, it ended up being the one. Hannah was such an incredible support throughout the process - helped make it feel snug even though it did not fit so I could visualize more of how it would look on me, listened to my concerns, and helped give my group a heads up on the things that I knew they would ask about. Hannah was a great listener and communicator, had such a bubbly personality, and truly made the experience unforgettable. Thank you to Hannah for making such a different in this experience!

Sadie was amazing and so kind. I had a dress appointment at another boutique prior to my appointment at Charlotteās. That previous appointment went horribly and I was in a fragile ...
place. Sadie was so sweet and understanding. She met me where I was and let me take charge of the appointment. The very first dress I tried on ended up being the āoneā. On top of that, my vision for my dress meant adding some customized pieces to the dress - Sadie creatively added pieces and accessories to the dress to help me see that vision.
Finally, I grew up in this area. Since I was little, I dreamed of going to Charlotteās for my wedding dress and Iām so pleased that came true.

stylist, Hannah, I instantly felt her warmth and she made the day soley about finding the dress that makes me feel everything I want to feel.

I said yes to the dress here at Charlotte's!! My best friend and matron of honor found her dress here a few years ago for her wedding and so I knew I wanted to visit Charlotte's fo...
r my dress shopping as well. This was not the first dress shop I went to, so I had a fairly good idea of what I wanted in my dress by the time I came here.
Hannah was my consultant, and she was absolutely amazing! She reached out to me before my appointment to introduce herself, get to know me, and get ideas on what I was looking for in my wedding dress. Upon arriving she greeted us and was so warm and welcoming. She ran us through the details of the appointment and already had a few dresses pulled for me. The first dress she put me in was THE ONE! I was struggling to find the perfect combo of details I wanted, and she nailed it. I tried on a few other options she had pulled just to be sure but the first dress she picked was perfect. I felt like Hannah really understood what I wanted, and she felt like a good friend even though it was the first time we met.
When I came back to pick up my dress (a month earlier than originally anticipated woot woot!) Hannah was there for my appointment to make sure the actual dress was as expected and helped guide me on accessories. I briefly explained the veil style I was thinking and of course she saw the vision and pulled beautiful options for me.
The whole team here is great, very knowledgeable, they have a great variety of dresses for styles and price ranges. The shop itself is bright, clean, and cute! I highly recommend Charlotte's for your wedding dress shopping.

e helped calm my nerves and listened to what I was looking for in a dress and pulled a few I would have never thought of trying. After I found my dress, she pulled the most perfect veil to help complete the look, even though I had sworn I wasn't going to wear a veil, it was just too perfect. I can't recommend Charlotte's and Hannah enough. Me and my family/bridal party had a wonderful time, and I would send anyone who is getting married to them!

ne other store and somehow Hannah knew right away exactly what I wanted. She brought in 3 dresses and with the first on I tried I immediately had the "I'm a bride, this is my dress," moment. We tried on the rest and she even went to find me some that were more out of my idea of what I wanted just to see, then gave me the whole bridal experience (veil and fake flowers) so I could see the whole look come together with my dream dress. She was so easy to talk to and the whole team there really made me feel like they were rooting for me/excited about my whole bridal experience. As someone who hasn't been making a huge deal out of getting married since I'm eloping and saving a reception for down the line, having this experience at Charlotte's really helped me feel excited for my elopement and embrace being a bride.

I came to the salon with a specific dress in mind. I showed my stylist a picture and she got me several dresses she thought I liked, but didn't have that dress available in my size...
. She worked with a creative solution to "franken-dress" me, so that we could conceptualize the vision! She found a skin-tight dress with the same top, then had me wear a second dress at the same time so I could see the size of the ballgown. I thought the situation was very funny, and loved what we were able to come up with. When my dress arrived (in one piece), I loved it. Again, my stylists worked with me to find and figure out what accessories would work for me, without being too pushy. (I didn't end up purchasing accessories there, but appreciated the help and options they had anyway!) As a plus size bride, I was so nervous that my experience would be awkward or inaccessible because of my size, but the staff at Charlottes really made me feel comfortable and beautiful.

ying. I thought that was all TV drama until it actually happened to me.
Stephanie was amazing. She pulled a dress from their private collection that was a designer I hadn't thought of at all and it was the dress that made me feel all of the feelings. I cried like the TV shows and my girls all said it was the dress. It was so seamless of an experience, it was easy to find the perfect veil for me and Stephanie walked me through every step of the way.
I'm very grateful for the experience I had here, would recommend to just about anyone looking for their wedding dress.

my vision. The first dress she had me try on ended up being the one I said yes to! After trying on multiple dresses after it, I tried it on again at the end and knew it was the one. Throughout my visit Brianna was extremely nice and supportive to both my guests and myself. I never felt rushed or judged like I did at other shops I had visited. I recommend booking an appointment at Charlotteās and requesting Brianna if you can!

I had been to about 8 other salons before traveling from Seattle to visit Charlotte's (I was looking to try on a few specific dresses). They have such a great collection and the store is large and beautiful. Everyone gets their own private room and natural light fills the entire studio. The staff was very kind and all the dresses are reasonably priced and beautiful. They have a big website and are very transparent. 10/10 would recommend to friends (and I already have).
