Charlotte’s has been in business for over 30 years. The original owner named Charlotte, started the business out of her home with only one designer and soon after moved into the current location and opened a full service bridal boutique.
In June of 2007, Charlotte decided to retire and sell the store to one of her employees.
The store has been reinvented with a newly renovated and expanded boutique in 2010 with 9 bridal suites, 8 smaller rooms for bridesmaids and moms. It has exclusive designers found nowhere else in Portland and the surrounding areas. It remains a full service boutique known for its great customer service, knowledgeable staff and the bridal shop to go to when wanting the ultimate gown shopping experience. Charlotte’s has become one of the top destinations to find your wedding gown in the Pacific Northwest.
