Plus Size Bridal Boutique To Open 1st NJ Store In Bergen Co.

ROCHELLE PARK, NJ – One of the country’s largest plus size bridal boutiques is opening its first New Jersey salon.

Brides by Young signed a lease agreement for a 5,650-square-foot space at Shops at Liberty Plaza, a new property at 162 Route 17 in Rochelle Park, according to leasing company, Cushman & Wakefield.

The new salon is expected to open in January, according to Brides by Young. The curvy bridal boutique carries sample sizes ranging from 14 to 34 and more than 400 dress styles for the bride-to-be.

Currently, there are two other Brides by Young shops – one in Indiana and the other in Illinois.

Alana Friedman, a Cushman & Wakefield senior associate, said Route 17 is very attractive for specialty retailers looking to enter a new area.

“This market is highly sought after due to its long-standing status as a major regional retail hub, with record-breaking sales numbers, traffic counts and outstanding accessibility,” she noted. “As brokers, we recognize a need for specialty offerings more and more, and understand the great demand for quality within the Greater Bergen County market. This new tenant is a great fit for the marketplace,” she said.

The plaza's other tenant is Starbucks.
