Your wedding day is going to be one of the most important days of your life so, buying the right wedding dress is essential right? Well, sometimes saying yes to the dress becomes a little more stressful than anticipated! When it comes to picking your wedding dress it MUST be uniquely you!

Since we know how important it can be to pick your dress here are 5 things you should know before going wedding dress shopping for the BEST day of your life!

 

Only try on dresses within your budget!

There’s a huge range of budgets for dresses! Make sure that before you book a wedding dress appointment, you call the salon or look up their prices ranges so you don’t end up in a dress that is double your budget by mistake! Once you’re at the appointment make sure that you only try on dresses within your budget! Of course, the fabric and designs on the more expensive dresses might be more appealing but you have to stay on budget so stay away from anything above your budget to avoid yourself heartbreak.

 

Don’t say yes to the first dress!

Make sure you don’t say yes to the first dress! We’ve already established how important your wedding dress is so you do NOT want to say yes to the first dress because you liked how it looks! There might be another one that might suit you better! Think about it for at least a day and if you decide you still want it you can email the shop to commit!

 

Make sure your dress compliments your venue!

Where you are getting married is a big factor that plays into what kind of wedding dress you should get. You should always make sure that your wedding dress compliments your venue. If you’re getting married on the beach, you don’t want to walk down the aisle with a ball gown, it will make your day more stressful because it’ll be uncomfortable and trust me, you don’t need the extra stress!

 

Think about who you want there!

The people that surround you on this journey are super important. That being said, you don’t want to make the mistake of having too many people there because then it becomes harder to say yes to any dress! Too many opinions means more stress! Limit yourself to inviting the people you know will support your choices and styles!

 

Saying yes to the dress is definitely a highlight of the wedding planning process. Following these tips will help wedding dress shopping a little bit easier for you!

Always remember to follow your gut and don’t let others influence your decision, especially not when it comes to your wedding dress!
