DO
Try on different styles
You have always dreamed of a ballgown,
but may be pleasantly surprised at how
elegant you feel in a mermaid or A-line.
Trust your bridal consultants and try
on anything they suggest. Your dream
dress may be homely on the hanger but
gorgeous on you.
DON’T Get
hung up on a size
It is just a number. Wedding dresses do
not run the same as your typical clothing
sizes. Don’t let a tiny number in the tag
stand between you and your dream
dress. Remember your dress will probably
require some alterations. It’s about the fit,
never about the number.
DON’T Bring your entourage
Bring your trusted advisors--your friends
and family that are encouraging yet
honest. Do not bring a huge entourage
because you do not want to hurt feelings.
In this case, the appointment usually leads
to confusion and conflicting opinions. It
will be hard to focus on your true feelings
on each dress.
