The No-Hassle
Wedding Style Plan
Follow these simple steps
for selecting the dress and
accessories with as little
stress as possible
By Nola Sarkisian-Miller, CTW Features
The wedding day is most stressful right at the start. There’s
makeup to apply, hair to get done, and, most importantly, a
dress to put on. But it’s easy to keep the panic to a minimum
by following a few guidelines.
DRESS TO-DO’S
When it comes to looking beyond good – and staying
calm, cool and collected – on your wedding day, two words
should sum up your smart and savvy approach to assem-
bling your flawless look: Plan ahead.
Most retailers suggest that brides begin their wedding
dress shopping nine months before the big day. That may
seem a lifetime away, but the extra cushion helps you
navigate issues like dealing with ordering from overseas and
managing alterations and potential fit issues.
It’s like ordering furniture. It’s better to have some time than
no time at all.
