Tips for Picking the Perfect Wedding Gown

  1. Match the dress to the style of the wedding. If you are having a beach wedding you won’t want a full-length gown with a ten-foot long train. If you are having your wedding in the morning you will want a different dress than if you are having a formal evening wedding.
  2. Pick a cut of dress that flatters your figure. When you were 15 and planning your wedding you may have fallen in love with the Cinderella dress, but now you have spent years working out and you’d like to show off your curves with a mermaid dress. If you have a larger bust line you may not want to go with a low-cut dress. Try on several dresses and listen to the consultant on what shape will flatter you best.
  3. Choose a color that suits your coloring best, don't be afraid to be different wedding dresses are not just white anymore.
  4. Know your budget before you start looking at dresses. There is nothing more heart breaking then finding the perfect dress only to check the tag and find out that it costs double what you can afford.
  5. Get a second opinion. Keeping in mind that the ultimate decision is yours, get a second opinion. Find the dress that you think might be “the one” and then go back to the store with your mom or a friend and try it on again.
  6. Buy at the right time. Keep in mind that a custom made dress could take between 9-12 months to make, but don’t buy so early that major changes could occur. Don’t buy more than a year before the wedding.
  7. Remember to use a local, well known Bridal Shop, if something goes wrong and needs to be fix you do not want to go 100 miles to where you bought your dress to have it fixed.
  8. Know when to stop shopping. If you have purchased the dress that made your heart sing, don’t keep looking. You don’t want to buy another dress and get stuck with two dresses. You can’t return a dresses ALL SALES ARE FINAL. Don’t think that you can sell it either because you’ll only get half or less of what you paid for it.
  9. Have FUN! This is one of the most important days of your life and we are honored to be a small part of it!
