Bremer Jewelry to Reveal Renovated Store
The jeweler has announced a grand reopening for its recently remodeled location in Peoria, Illinois.

The jeweler, founded in 1953, will reveal its renovated 7,000-square-foot store at a grand reopening bridal event next week.
The new space includes an expanded showroom and bridal area, a jewelry repair department, a more inviting shopping experience, and an enhanced selection of engagement rings, fine jewelry, and gifts, said the jeweler.
Owners Justin and Julie May said their vision for the remodel was “to ensure that everyone feels welcomed, valued, and celebrated at Bremer, and that they receive the absolute best service around.”
"We believe that everyone deserves to experience the joy of fine jewelry," said Justin May.
He continued, "This remodel is about more than expanding our showroom; it's about ensuring that every individual who walks through our doors knows they belong here. We want Peoria to know that we are committed to being the best we can be because they deserve that; our community has given so much to us, and this is our way of giving back."
The Mays, who enjoy supporting local charities and celebrating milestones with the customers in their community, said they see the store as “a gathering place where families and friends can come together to commemorate life's most precious moments.”
"We can't wait to welcome everyone into this stunning new space," said Julie May.
"Every detail has been designed with our guests in mind, creating an atmosphere of attainable luxury and warmth. We believe we have the best employees around and they are passionate about providing an unforgettable experience for our guests. No matter what you're shopping for, we want you to leave feeling special."
Bremer Jewelry will host a grand reopening bridal event from April 24-26 at its store, located at 4707 N University St. in Peoria, Illinois.
Customers who spend $3,500 during the promotional weekend will receive a free Yeti item.
A ribbon cutting will take place April 25 at 10 a.m.
The jeweler also has a location in Bloomington, Illinois.
