How to choose the perfect wedding dress

Choosing a wedding dress can be both exciting and nerve-racking . To help you create the look of your dreams , here are a few tips .

Make a plan Before you try on a single gown , make a list of the criteria you ’ re looking for in a wedding dress . Do you want a certain cut , style or length ? Do you want to show off your shoulders or hourglass figure ? Establishing some criteria will allow you to narrow down the choices .

Use props In addition to your list of criteria , bring along pictures of dresses to show to the bridal store consultant . They can use the information you provide to quickly find several different gowns for you to try .
Try different styles After the first fitting , you may realize that the dresses that look good in pictures aren ’ t the right fit for your figure . Don ’ t worry , your consultant can suggest other styles until you find the dress of your dreams .
Additionally , keep in mind that all wedding dresses need to be altered . Therefore , don ’ t be dissuaded if a dress is too long , short or loose .
Whether you decide to buy or rent a wedding dress , choose the one that makes you feel most beautiful . For inspiration , visit your local bridal stores .
Want a second opinion ? Bring along someone you trust who knows your style and can give you honest feedback . n
