The time has come to choose your wedding dress! Have you decided on what you may like? If you are having a destination wedding you are probably thinking a little differently when it comes to tradition, but maybe not. It is your day, so pick the dress that makes you fell perfect. However, here are a few helpful tips to keep in mind when making your decision.
Choosing your gown could be overwhelming, so first you must have a vision. Take some time to look at dresses in bridal magazines or begin your search online. There are so many to decide upon - white or colorful, short or long, and what type of fabric. You want to have a few ideas when you start making appointments at bridal salons. Having a few choices will help the bridal consultant know what you are looking for.
Take into consideration the different styles and fabrics. You will be traveling with your gown, so choose something that will make the trip well. You might be on the beach, which means you will want a dress that will not trip you up while walking in the sand. And you want something that will keep you cool in the warm temperatures. Chiffon is the most popular fabric to choose. It is light, it will not cling to you, and it does not wrinkle easily. Because the fabric is delicate it will look lovely as the wind blows through it during your ceremony.
Always have your budget in mind. Before you make your appointment decide on what your budget is and stick to it. Remember there are alterations, accessories, your veil, and your shoes that will add to the cost of your dress. You do not want to try on anything that is out of your budget. There is nothing worse than finding a dress that you love and cannot afford. Believe me, there are so many gowns, that you will find the perfect dress in your price range.
Are you a traditional bride, you a non-traditional one? Strapless, halter, or spaghetti straps? White, off-white, or colored? Jewels, lace, or flowers. Whatever your dream gown may be, get exactly what you want. Do not let anyone sway your decision.
There are thousands of gowns and many salons to help you. Keep in mind that you can shop online as well. Make sure that it is a reputable dealer, and read their policies fully before you purchase. You may find your favorite designer gown at a better price.
