FIVE SIMPLE STEPS TO CHOOSING YOUR WEDDING DRESS

1.CONSIDER THE VENURE & THEME

It is always advised to consider the entire of your wedding when choosing your dress. Think about how you want to harmonise your dress choice with the venue as well as the overall theme you’re going for.

2. LOOK AT WHAT’S ON TREND FOR INSPIRATION

If your wedding is an open book and you simply can’t find inspiration, then looking at what’s in fashion right now is always a good place to start. Take some time looking at the current trends, whether it’s bigger bows, new colours, or trendy accessories like bridal crowns and extravagant veils.

3. MAKE SURE YOU VISIT BRIDAL STORES

As mentioned, the internet can be an excellent resource for researching trends and finding designs that inspire you. However, ordering a dress online can be very risky as it may not fit when it arrives and it could look completely different to how it was promoted online.

4. PICK YOUR PERFECT FIT

One of the reasons you want to go in-store, as mentioned, is to make sure that the dress fits you in the first place. Something really important when trying on dresses is to make sure you take a moment to sit and move around as well. You can get a good look at it standing in front of the mirror but you want to make sure you are comfortable sitting down.

5. BRING ALONE THE PEOPLE WHO KNOW YOU BEST

As you are planning essentially the most important day of your life, your nerves may get the better of you, so be sure to choose a supportive friend or family member who knows your personality best. If you know that you have a more contemporary and sexy style, then bringing your more conservative sister might not be the best idea. Choose those who know you maybe even better than you know yourself.
