I worked with Amy and she was awesome! It was a combined experience for me from other salons I have visited. They allow you to browse through the selection AND bring you some that you may like. Just with any other bridal salon, go with an idea of what you like.

I was able to take pictures, I didn't feel rushed at all and there was absolutely no pressure. She wrote down the style numbers, designer, and price of each dress I liked at the end for me too! She welcomed me to come again another time to try on the dress. It is definitely a small place, and I went on a weekday so I had the place all to myself. I could see how it could get crowded however, which is why you should make an appointment. Happy shopping!!

It had been a long day of disappointing dress shopping. My mom and I went to a few bridal shops including David's Bridal which was the WORST customer service I have ever received anywhere. On our way home I was so discouraged and my mom remembered this small bridal boutique in downtown Pleasanton which is located across the street from where my husband and I got engaged. I really didn't want to do any more shopping, but I let my mom talk me into just stopping by to look. We didn't have an appointment and there was a couple other brides there, but the staff was so sweet and even let me try on a few dresses. I was shocked!!! It was so cute and the dress shop was just the perfect atmosphere of what a boutique should be! They had so many amazing dresses that I was overwhelmed and all had such reasonable prices compared to others I have tried. My spirits were lifted!!! We made an appointment and I returned probably 4 times to try on different dresses, each time finding one that I like more. They were super flexible and accommodating. They even allow you to take pictures which no other bridal shop will allow and this is what ultimately helped me make my decision. All the dresses truly look different on camera! When I finally found the dress of my dreams it was part of a trunk show so it had $100 off the tag price. I went home and researched prices and theirs was the cheapest ANYWHERE the dress was $1300+ anywhere else and it was listed for $1100 at J'aime. It was slightly over my price limit, but Jamie worked with me and gave me a deal as long as I bought my bridesmaids dresses there which wasn't difficult since there were a lot to choose from. I also ordered my shoes there which were surprisingly comfortable and dyed to match my "antique" ivory dress. The only set back we had was with the flower girl dress. It came in and was much too small. So we reordered. The next one was longer, but still too tight so they reordered again only someone forgot to send the order. 3 weeks before the wedding and I didn't know what to do. The owner Jamie offered to take the dress and alter it herself (it just needed to be let out a little) at no extra cost. Come the day of everything was perfect and all worked out!!! Thanks J'aime =)

I adore J'aime Bridal. They are a smaller shop, but not at all short on service. All the ladies who work there are warm, welcoming, and super helpful. My dress was the second one that I tried on a J'aime. They just happened to be having a Maggie Sottero Trunk Show sale, so I received an additional $100 off.

Also, if you purchase your dress there, your bridesmaids receive 20% off their dresses. We had a bit of mishap with one of the bridesmaids dresses, and J'aime Bridal took care of it quickly. They are awesome! I refer everyone looking for a dress to them.

I had a great experience at J'aime Bridal. I was helped by Erin. All the employees in that salon is really laid back, really sweet and helpful if needed to be. The salon is small but has a lot of beautiful dresses and good selections of other needs. Appointment is a must but dont bring a lot of people with you. Opinions in a small space is overwheming. I would recommend a trunk sale time to buy your dress. They recommend Monika'a Alterations for your bustle and alterations...Monika is awesome!!

I also had an appointment for bridesmaid dresses there too. I have 1 MOH and seven bridesmaids. It was crowded :). It was a good experience but at the end, I decided to get dresses else where. They do not have sizes over 10. So 3 of my girls just had to watch the other girls model and we had to imagine how it would look on them...not so good. but overall no complaints!

I had a great experience with this store. They were nice and helpful, they let me try on as many dresses as I wanted and take pictures. I have nothing but good things to say about my experience.

I had a great experience at J'aime Bridal. The people there were not pushy and were quite patient with me. The salon is small but has a good selection. They even matched prices that I found from other Bay Area stores. I highly recommend them.

What a wonderful bridal salon! They have a great selection of reasonably priced gowns. They made a Sunday appointment for me to try on dresses, when the store was closed -- it was great! They encouraged me to take pictures and take some time to make my decision -- totally low pressure! They had everything I needed -- veil, tiara, and comfortable, affordable shoes. Their communication was great -- they called me after they ordered the dress, when they got a ship date, and when the dress arrived (earlier than expected). They even picked up my dress from the alterations place and steamed it, which saved me from making another trip to Pleasanton (although the drive is well worth it for this kind of service!). A wonderful place!

My experience with this salon was AMAZING. First of all, I bought all my BM and FG dresses there. The vendor we were interested in was Watters. I had picked a few styles off the vendor website, called around to different salons to see if they had the styles. No one did. So I called J'aime, and they were willing to order in the samples from Watters for my gianormous wedding party (10 maids). They got the samples, girls went and tried on and decided on a style.

When the dresses came in 2 did not fit the girls (all were measured at the shop). I happened to be down there looking at FG dresses and mentioned to the owner that 2 didn't fit (2-3 inch gaps) and that those girls hadn't gained weight. She asked if one of the girls could come in. One lived down the street so bopped in with her dress. Owner measured her, looked at the tag on the dress and the dress was tagged the size that we would have ordered. Maid tries on dress, and owner sees gap. Has maid take off dress and measures the fabric circumfrence. According to the chart, the size should have fit someone 35" around, but it was only 28" of fabric! Owner had Watter re-do the two dresses and Fed Ex them to make in time for the wedding!

Also, we did get our FG dresses there (US Angels), and they were too tight by the time the wedding rolled around. She let us exchange for bigger sizes.

AWESOME to work with! Plus they let you take pics! If they had carried my wedding dress vendor, I would have ordered it there too!

I was helped by Lauren who was wonderful! I had tried on my dress here early on in my hunt for the dress. I ended up buying a different dress at a different bridal salon but for the next month, kept thinking about the dress at J'aime Bridal. Finally, I ended up going there and trying it on again, and probably kept it on in the store for about an hour! Lauren was patient with me, knowing I had a big decision to make. I ended up buying the dress and selling the first one I bought. I even bought my veil and headpiece from J'aime Bridal. I love this store- they really take care of you and your dress!!

J'aime Bridal is the best bridal shop ever, I went in to get one of my BM who lives out of town measured for a dress that I'd already chosen at a shop in Sacramento. We had been looking for dress shops all day who didn't charge a fee just to get measurements, and J'aime bridal happened to be the only one. We went in I and saw the Bridal gown that I'd fallen in love with at another store but they wanted to charge me way to much and the girls there were so nice they let me try it on without an appt. and I was just in heaven. The dress was slightly cheaper there but the owner J'aime was so nice she gave me a great deal and even ordered the gown in the style that had more embelishments on the bodice and gave me a great deal on all my bridesmaid dresses and she told me that if any of my BMs had to pay for measurments anywhere she'd reimburse their money! On top of all that she even gave me a gift card to her shop for assessories. J'aime is so professional and treats her customers so well. She is just awesome and all the girls that work there are awesome as well. I'd recommend her shop to any bride in the Bay Area, I live in Sacramento and was happy to purchase from her shop because she was sooo helpful and patient with me.
