Bridal Homework Before Going Dress Shopping
Bridal gown shopping can be very overwhelming and emotional for not just the bride, but also mothers and friends. It can also be a frustrating experience if the bride is not happy with her body or not sure what she wants. We always suggest the bride do a little homework before shopping to help make it a positive experience. Follow these tips before going dress shopping:
1 | Browse wedding magazines, blogs and Pinterest to get an idea of what style of wedding gown you may like. Make a portfolio of your favorite styles and bring it with you to the bridal salon so they can get a visual sense of what you like.
2 | For the first time trying on dresses, be warned that wedding gowns run small. Do not pay attention to the size; most bridal stores have sample gowns in sample sizes. Focus on how you look in the gown.
3 | Allow the consultant to pull some dresses that s/he may believe will fit your body and the style of wedding.
4 | Bring appropriate undergarments with you to the bridal salon as well as similar shoes you will be wearing on the big day.
5 | Lastly, it’s fun trying on wedding gowns, enjoy yourself and have a glass of champagne!
