This list has been specially curated for the eco-conscious bride living in the Pacific Northwest. If you are you looking to buy a used wedding dress in Washington, Oregon, Idaho, or California, this list has all the consignment boutiques in the area to check out. Although many more brides are choosing to buy their dress secondhand or even rent one (because it saves so much money!), there are only a handful of stores specifically tailored to consignment wedding attire.
You may be comfortable buying a dress online (and there are many options for secondhand wedding attire). But honestly, it can feel better to try something as personal as a wedding dress on in person. These consignment bridal shops have store fronts where you can touch, feel, and try own your secondhand wedding dress before purchasing.
No need to miss out on bringing along your friends and family as well just because you're getting a used gown! Schedule appointments at these shops just like you would any other wedding dress boutique. The only difference is that you'll be choosing a more affordable and sustainable wedding dress compared to traditional gowns.
