Wedding Gown Shopping Tips

Wedding gown shopping is a fun and very special occasion!  Here are a few tips that will help you find the perfect dress.

Wear appropriate undergarments.  Many bridal salons prefer to assist you when trying on dresses. This helps to prevent damage to the gowns. You should plan to have a strapless bra and appropriate under clothing to cover yourself so that you do not feel too exposed.

Bring a pair of shoes. Bring a shoe with you that will have the approximate heel height you anticipate wearing on your wedding day. Wearing shoes will give you better perspective on the overall look, and will help you decide if you need custom hem measurements or not.

Bring a hair elastic.Your hair might get in the way while you're trying on dresses and veils, so bring a hair elastic along just in case. It will help you envision how you will look on your wedding day!

Bring carefully selected shopping partners. Although it is very fun to have every family member and friend involved in the shopping experience, too many opinions can make choosing a dress very difficult. Bring a few people whose opinions you trust.

Bring ideas about styles and budget. At the beginning of your appointment your consultant will ask what you're looking for in your gown.  Feel free to bring photos of styles you're interested in.  If you have a certain budget in mind, make sure to let them know.


Bring a great attitude. This makes all the difference. Be open to trying on a variety of styles or suggestions from your consultant.  Be confident that you will find 'the one'! We love sharing this experience with our brides and their families!

XOXO,
