Yesterday, I spent most of my day wedding dress shopping with one of my brides. I love wedding dresses. I love all the different styles, colors, textures and shapes. I think if I wasn’t a planner I would own a bridal shop. Nothing is more fun than helping a bride find her dream dress.
Remember when trying to find your dress, bring along shoes that are at least close to the height you intend to wear on your wedding day. Wear a strapless bra to make trying on different styles easier. No dress looks good with bra straps hanging out.
Don’t take too many people with you. Too many opinions will just confuse you. Your mom, your best friend, sister or maybe your planner is more than enough.
Try to go dress shopping during the week. Weekends are crowded and really just dreadful for making such a big decision. Take a camera, to get pictures of the contenders. Some shops don’t allow pictures, so ask first. But to tell the truth, I’d stay away from shops that don’t allow pictures.
Always ask what is their best price on the dress. They just might surprise you with a manager’s special. As my dad always said “it’s easier to talk for it, than to work for it”.
