Welcome to our Portland, OR Bridal Shop!
november 2017
We are SO excited to give you a tour of a&bé Bridal Shop in Portland, OR! It is our first bridal shop to open on the west coast, and we think Pacific Northwest brides will feel right at home in this gorgeous space. When we first decided to call PDX home, we knew our store had to be in the heart of the Alberta Arts district. The building we found was open with tall windows, had high ceilings with wooden beams, skylights, and exposed brick walls. Truly the perfect canvas to create the most unique bridal shop in town. It quickly became a whirlwind of drywall and wood flooring. It seemed as if overnight, dress racks and fitting rooms appeared! Quickly, a&bé Portland was coming together!
We know you're going to fall in love with a&bé
When we were building this shop, we wanted it to represent everything that a Portland Bride is: cool, unique, and modern with a romantic flare. The store itself is split into 4 viewing areas, each one with a private fitting room. Giant hand painted mirrors & gorgeous pendant lights help show what a babe you are in all of our gowns, and a seating area styled with sleek sofas, stylish end tables, and rugs accommodate all the bride’s guests. One of our favorite aspects of our bridal shop is how bright, and open the space feels. Our goal was to make shopping with us feel fun, totally instagrammable, and stress free.
