This is someting you want to know about gown shopping :
1. When calculating your wedding dress budget, don't forget to factor in the cost of your veil and headpiece - which can run from $50 to $500 - as well as your shoes, lingerie, and wedding jewelry.
2. Many houses of worship consider bare shoulders disrespectful. Ask your officiant about specific body-coverage requirements before you start wedding dress shopping. Or look into a wrap or shawl for the ceremony.
3. You're woman-busy , but if at all possible take time off during the week to begin your hunt - you'll get more of the salesperson's time and attention than you would on a busy Saturday.
4. Have a friend take notes while you are trying on dresses and include info on fabric and style, and most importantly the dress name and price. After going to a few stores and trying on many dresses, it can be easy to forget!
5. When you're in the bridal salon, don't eliminate anything at first glance. Even though certain styles work best on certain body types, don't let the "rules" narrow your search too much. Try on all different kinds of dresses, and then to decide which shape and style you look and feel best in.
6. You shouldn't buy the first dress you try on. Give yourself all the options and the time to think by shopping more - and elsewhere - before you buy. Even after you think you've found your wedding gown, take a day to be absolutely sure it's the one for you.
7. When you're ready to order your wedding dress, the store will take your measurements: bust, waist, and hips. Each manufacturer has its own measurement chart, and this is what the store will use to determine your size. A knowledgeable store will know how a particular designer's gowns are supposed to fit. Ask to see the sizing chart so you can have a better understanding of the way it works.
8. Every wedding dress needs alterations to fit precisely to your frame. When your gown is altered correctly, you should be able to move comfortably with everything staying in place.
9. You'll probably have at least two or three dress fittings, which you'll schedule with the store when you purchase your wedding dress; more may be necessary, so leave ample time before the wedding. If the store doesn't do its own alterations, ask the salesperson you've been working with to recommend a trusted tailor or seamstress.
10. Find out exactly how long it will take for your wedding dress to come in, and be sure to pay with a credit card. For such a big purchase, you'll want to be able to dispute a payment just in case something goes wrong.
