Your wedding dress should

make you look stunning. What it

should not do is stress you out.

Follow these tips for having a

fun, carefree time finding your

gown

1. GIVE YOURSELF TIME

Start the dress search early – six to nine months ahead of

the wedding day, if you can – so you’re not stressed out with

last-minute shipping and alterations Bridal salon appoint-

ments typically last from about an hour to 90 minutes, so

block out enough time to talk to consultants, take measure-

ments and try on plenty of styles It’s always fun to look and

try on, but keep in mind you do need to make a decision

eventually

2. GO WITH AN OPEN MIND

Before the appointment, look at dresses in bridal magazines

and websites, and on social media like Pinterest, to see what

might suit your style, but remember that dresses may look

entirely different once you actually put them on You might

have an idea of what you want for the day, but you might end

up with a completely different dress because it looks fantas-

tic on you In the end, it’s what suits you and what suits your

body type Be open to our expertise and let them guide you

to what looks good
