Certainly, this process is full of excitement and joy to everyone but… try to keep it as much to yourself as possible. What we are trying to say here is that don’t bring all of your squad with you – too many opinions are next to impossible to take into account, whereas for them it may become more of a game, rather than helping hand process.

After all, no hard feeling but who said that their taste matches yours perfectly.

Moreover, plan and think ahead. Do allow yourself enough time to bond with dress of yours after its arrival, bearing in mind that it takes time.

Plan your calendar – some deadlines might really help to stick to as well as budgets. Happiness may have no borders but time lines and monetary matters certainly do.

Shop around, research, window shop and research again, yet, be prepared to buy the very first dress you like. Don’t limit yourself to all kinds of prejudices, trust your 6th sense, especially once enough research has taken place.

Don’t underestimate the power of trunk sales, sample sales, special offers, promotions, etc. It well can be matter of luck to you or your other half. Brave it, tempt it, try it.

Don’t you even think to succumb to sticker shock – we are talking of size over here. The way the general rule goes, you need to order your dress according to your largest measurements. Many bridal designers use size chart, which reflects size 12 as a true size 8/10. Alteration is a norm over here, more or less. Otherwise, it worth to opt for companies, which initially allow for certain degree of customization.

Finally, don’t be afraid to ask questions. The more you learn, the more you know, the better choice you should finally make… as well as little touch of luck. Be good.
