So, the date you were waiting for so long is finally set, and you are bound to start thinking of where to buy your wedding dress. There are two most widely used options of choosing a wedding dress: visiting some bridal shops or buying your dress online. 

Visiting a Bridal Shop

When visiting a bridal shop it is of utmost importance to keep in mind the three Don’ts:

  • don’t be in a hurry – make the process of selection as enjoyable as possible. While trying a dress on, take an attentive look at yourself in the mirror, turn around and check how it fits around your body. If possible, try not to arrange any meetings or other events on this important day. Nothing should distract you.
  • don’t be afraid of asking questions – sales assistants in a good bridal shop are always ready to help. Some styles might not be on the display. However, if you ask the sales assistants about them, it’s quite likely that they will find just the dress you were searching for among the variety of styles.
  • don’t be shy – you don’t have to feel timid when people around stare at you. You’ll look great in a white dress of any style if you proudly throw back your shoulders and give a bright smile to the world. Your happy day is just around the corner, don’t forget it!

A wedding dresses catalog with prices

This option is even more convenient than a regular bridal shop in your neighborhood. You can browse the website at leisure and at your own pace, and then set off to try just the dresses you selected. It’s advised to start looking for a dress in a bridal shop beforehand. Usually shops put on display the majority of styles in late winter since the shop has to display a new range of dresses by spring. However, in summer most dresses may be bought up. That’s why in fall the range of styles in shops gets narrower. However, if you deal with an online catalog, the problem of choice is efficiently resolved. The website owners can deliver any style of dress from the catalog upon request.

How to prepare yourself to fitting

On the day you arranged a visit to a bridal shop it’s better not to use makeup to avoid staining the new gown. It is a good idea to buy your wedding shoes before fitting the dress. Bring along a friend or a relative who could give you a good advice: whether to buy a short or a long dress, a white dress or a dress in colors, etc. If you chose a dress from a catalog, print out the picture to show it to the sales assistants. They will search and find exactly the same dress or something similar in no time.
