What to Know Before Choosing A Wedding Dress



When trying to decide on your wedding dress, there are a lot of things to consider before laying your hard earned money down. First and foremost is to pick something you feel beautiful in and I hate to say it but something you can afford. Don’t put money into that dress until you have a budget and know what you can afford to spend.

Then consider the venue you’re getting married in. Is it a ballroom? Then go for the Cinderella dress, but if the ceremony is outdoors, that heavy ball gown is probably not your best choice. Do you know the rules of the church you’re planning on getting married in? Does it require your shoulders being covered? This will definitely affect the style you choose. Do you want to be able to really move and dance all night long? Then maybe a tight mermaid style is not your best choice. How long the aisle is in your ceremony site will directly tie to how long a train your dress should have.


After you have your budget and plans in order, then start the search for your dress. A good place to start is fashion shows, like the one held at last week’s Wedding Festivals Show. You get to see a large variety of dresses at all different price ranges. You get to see what the experts think are the hottest styles for the upcoming year. Seeing how the dresses move across the stage is a good way to know how it will look as you walk down the aisle on your wedding day.


Here is a little eye candy from the show. Enjoy and maybe you will find your dream dress in the process.
