3 Tips For Choosing The Right Wedding Dress

As you plan your wedding, picking your perfect wedding dress is likely high on your priority list. While there is no one perfect wedding dress for every bride, there are several things you can do to find the right wedding dress for you.

Go for Variety

Even if you think you have the perfect dress all planned out in your head, try on several dresses. It is generally a good idea to try dresses in at least two or three styles. The dress you thought you loved might not look as good once you try it on. Yet, the dress that was unimpressive at first glance could end up being your perfect dress once you try it on. Even if your first choice turns out to be your perfect dress, trying on several will better confirm that.

Think of Your Wedding Day

When trying on wedding dresses, consider when and where you are getting married. For example, if it is likely to be hot on the day of your wedding, a heavy dress with several layers may begin to feel unbearable after only an hour or two. If you are having a beach wedding, you may want a short, lighter dress, which will not only keep you cooler but will allow you to move more freely.  

Trust Your Feelings

Brides often say that when they find their perfect dress, they just know. Some brides find their perfect dress early in the wedding dress shopping experience. Other brides take longer to find it. If you find your perfect dress quickly, do not allow others to tell you to keep looking. If it takes you a while to find your perfect dress, do not settle for something that is not your perfect dress. Wait it out. You will find your perfect dress.

Of course, part of the fun of getting a great wedding dress is continuing to enjoy pictures of yourself in it. Contact us to learn how your family and friends can play a significant part in making sure your perfect wedding dress is captured in photos you will treasure forever.
