Merrime Bridal gave me the wedding dress shopping experience I always wanted! I had not one, but two, amazing appointments with stylists Dana and Rose who helped me narrow all the wonderful choices at Merrime down to my dream dress! Both Dana and Rose, as well as the other stylists just passing by, made me feel at ease, beautiful, and comfortable in my own skin! As a plus size bride, it can be really hard to feel comfortable wedding dress shopping when nothing fits you. Merrime was so inclusive, carries an excellent range of sizes, and not once did I feel excluded or judged. I went to another bridal shop to explore more options before I realized it doesn’t get better than Merrime, both in quality of dresses and experience, and came right on back! Thank you to Dana, Rose, Jena, and Clancey for being so nice and helpful! ~ Simone

I had an incredible experience at Merrime bridal shopping for my wedding dress. The shop is beautiful with an incredible selection. They had a wonderful set up for myself and my ladies. Jena was so wonderful, supportive and made me feel so beautiful. She picked the perfect dress for me. It was a beautiful day. Thank you, Merrime 🤍 ~ Rianne

“So pleasantly surprised by this place. We were across the street and decided to just drop in on a whim because of one of the beautiful dresses in the window. We were not really expecting much since we did not have an appointment but instead we were greeted so warmly by the owner of the shop. Even without the appointment she invited us in and what was really nice is that instead of assuming she was a friend she immediately recognized my fiancé as my fiancé which is definitely not something we experience often as two women. I was shocked at her service and hospitality for us. Even without an appointment she offered us all of the complementary champagne and services she took the time to explain the shop to us , she listened to my thoughts about the dress, and even pulled some things that I had not thought of which turned out to be my favorites. Throughout the whole experience there it seemed like she had known us for months rather than meeting her five minutes ago. We had our own private little area to try on dresses where she helped me with every single one. We have never been to a wedding dress shop where we both felt so warmly welcomed. The owner is clearly in the right business, she is amazing at her job, and knows her dresses so well. Ended up finding the most gorgeous dress for my reception. There was absolutely no pressure at all from her to buy a dress, but My fiancé and I both said that we wanted to buy a dress from there just because the owner was so wonderful to us. I would highly recommend this place to any type of bride, as a lesbian couple we both just felt so immediately excepted like it was totally normal for her. Overall just such a positive experience.” ~ Lindsey

“Dana and Jena are absolutely in the right place. I had the most unforgettable experience with them. I'm still on a high from it lol! Your professionalism, expertise and dedication to your bride's experience is far more than I could have asked for. Your attention to me and my party made the experience so wonderful and fun for everyone. I am so grateful for you and this experience. Thank you for helping me find my dream dress and for the incredible day.” ~ Nakeysha

“I absolutely LOVED my experience here. I booked my appointment the night before for the next morning and they got back to me that night to confirm. Everyone was so friendly and helpful. Jena took the time to look over my Pinterest board so she could set aside dresses she thought I would like. 1000% recommend.” ~ Anna

Within a few minutes of looking at my Pinterest board, Jena started pulling dresses off the racks that matched exactly what I wanted. Her and her team were SO patient with me and hyped me up the whole time! The women at Merrime bridal are passionate, so knowledgeable and so welcoming. I would recommend this shop to anyone!” ~ Kawaiala

I found my dream dress. We had a pretty last-minute wedding planned, and Jena and Kira were able to find me the perfect dress and get all the alterations back so quick!! Absolutely amazing service. We love these ladies so much. Thank you again!! I couldn’t be more happy with my dress. ~ Madi Gill

If you are looking to go dress shopping look no further! I actually traveled from out of town in the search for a dress I didn’t get to try on at a different place. I loved my experience here. As a plus size bride it is hard to fit into the bridal world. But here I felt so comfortable, and there were so many options for me to choose from. Everything about my appointment just felt right. The dress I ended up choosing had arrived just a few hours before I got there, like it was truly meant to be. Jena really takes good care of her brides! ~ Jordan Jarvis

Merrime Bridal is amazing! It’s hard for me to find dresses that fit my body since I’m blessed in the back and not blessed up top. Nothing stopped Jena from helping me find my perfect dress! I felt confident when trying on dresses and felt beautiful! Jena was positive and caring when helping! Jena made sure my opinion was heard and what I was dreaming of, she made come true. I recommend this bridal store over all others! I had the best experience and I will be able to hold onto this memory forever! Plus I found my dream dress! Thank you Jena for such a special moment and for letting my bridal party and family be apart of it! ~ Courtney Castronovo

I struggled finding a shop that I felt comfortable with and that would allow 5 guests to join me. Jena welcomed us all with so much love and warmth! She truly wants to see the joy the perfect wedding dress provides. She isn't pushy and listens to what you are looking for. I could not have found a better place! I will be telling every future bride I meet to check out Merrime Bridal!

~ Emily Wade

Merrime Bridal is fantastic!!! The owner is so personable, professional, and really made our dress shopping special. The champagne was a delicious touch- even at 9am! Everything here is perfect and Merrime Bridal will be remembered as a unique and amazing part of my wedding day! ~ Katharine Bear Nalven

The personal touch that you crave when searching for the perfect wedding dress. The owner is patient and super kind. My daughter kept coming back to try 2 gowns that she loved. After visiting other places she ultimately chose her dress here. Quality dresses at decent prices with a personal touch. ~ Sandra Sefcik

Description goes here100/10!!!! Jena, the owner helped me find my dream dress! She was so accommodating, helpful and calming after I called her frantically realizing I've waited too long to dress shop! The entire time with her I felt so comfortable and understood. It was a very intimate experience which aligns with our wedding. The dresses are high quality and I was pleasantly surprised with the prices. If you need a dress you have to go!!!!

I was honored to share in my sister's weddong dress shopping/fitting journey this past weekend and she could not have chosen a more elegant and intimate boutique!! The bride, as well as the rest of us, were all so well taken care, from the smallest detail to the overall experience, nothing was forgotten. The owner of this beautiful boutique was so in tuned into the feelings and vibes of the bride that within 2 lovely hours my sister 'Said Yes to the Dress' !! Thank you Merrime Bridal- it was an amazing experience!

~Christina Rinas

Merrime Bridal goes above and beyond! They made my experience beautiful and personal! I’m a bigger sized girl and they had SO many options for brides of all sizes. I also changed the date of my wedding by two months and they were still able to get my dress to me on time, with positivity!

~ Cayla Russell

I cannot explain the happiness I’ve experienced with Merrime Bridal! They go above and beyond for their customers and never leave someone disappointed! My dress is beautiful and if it wasn’t for them I wouldn’t be in my dream dress on my special day! I have never felt more beautiful as I do in that dress! Thank you Jena so much for making my experience so perfect. I’m ready to be in it already cause I’ll never wanna take it off!

For brides wondering about booking with Merrime, I had an appointment a few months ago and it was an absolute dream! I am plus size bride (size 22-24). I was a little nervous about finding a dress in my size. To my surprise, the staff had already put of dozens of dresses that could fit me. I almost cried because I was so happy. The fitting room is also very spacious for those wondering. I tried on a dress that was 3 feet wide approximately and still had room around me. Kira, who helped me get into the dresses was very friendly and great to chat and get along with! I definitely recommend booking a private appointment to get the ultimate experience. I will he recommending this boutique to all of my friends. You will not find a better bridal boutique in the Willamette Valley.

~ Kalyn Taylor

I was honestly a bit skeptical going to a small 'boutique' for my daughters wedding dress. We were not looking for a high pressure experience. Jena and her staff exceeded every expectation! She is warm, inviting, friendly, extremely professional and was really good at helping my daughter find her dream dress. Absolutely 5 star experience!
