Picking your wedding dress is SUCH AN EXCITING MOMENT and we can't wait for you to experience this. Here are Ten wedding Dress Shopping: tips in Las Vegas to help you find the perfect dress for your celebration.
1. Do your research - have an idea of what you THINK you want (sample photos are super helpful if you don't know the name of the style you like!)
2. Make an appointment! A lot of dress shops require appointment and limit the number of guests that you can bring with you to the appointment so make sure you plan ahead.
3. Don't worry about the number.... bridal sizing is weird and typically a couple sizes higher than your every day clothing.
4. Know your budget - you don't want to fall in love with a $10K dress if your budget is $2K. Be up front with your dress shop attendant with your budget so that they can help you find something beautiful and affordable!
5. Try on a variety of styles! I will preach this one forever!! I thought for sure I knew what style dress I wanted when I started dress shopping - turns out my dream dress was everything I thought I DIDN'T WANT! Strapless and A-Line.
6. "Can you move in it" -- it may be gorgeous but if you can barely breathe, sit, or walk and you plan to do a lot of dancing... is it realllly the right dress?
7. Bring appropriate under garments to try on (strapless bra for strapless dresses!)
8. Shop early (but not too early!) -- some dresses could take up to 6 months to receive so you definitely want to give yourself plenty of time to receive the dress AND have time for alterations if needed!
9. Choose who you bring with you wisely! You'll get a lot of opinions on what dress everyone else thinks you should buy so choose people who will be honest with you but will also ultimately support you.
10. Choose a style that fits YOU - if you're not a 'traditional' kinda bride.... consider alternative options that might be a better fit. Add in some color, go short, or wear a jumpsuit! No one's saying you have to wear a white dress!
