Are you considering splurging on a beautiful wedding gown?

A Style of Your Own

Regardless of how much you’ve decided to spend on your wedding dress, the most important thing is that you truly love your gown! Start by looking through wedding and fashion magazines, and developing a taste for what you love. Think of all the different components: style, cut, fabric, and accessories. The most expensive gowns can be thousands or millions of dollars, and can be embellished with anything from diamonds to pearls! The extravagance is tantalizing, but be sure that you fall in love with the gown itself – not its price tag!


Making a Decision

Figuring out your wedding budget should be one of the first things you take into consideration as you begin planning. Knowing how much you are willing to spend on flowers, entertainment, food, and venue is very important in choosing which vendors you will work with – plus you will know how much you have to work with when it comes to wedding dress shopping. If the dress you love is out of your price range, identify what it is you love about it (style? The way the material flows?) and you may be able to find something similar at a lower cost. Make sure you discuss budget with your fiancé and agree on what percentage of that budget will be going to each of your wedding-day ensembles (if you’re getting an expensive dress, he will likely want a new suit!).


Where to Shop

Shopping for your wedding gown is one of the most fun shopping experiences you will likely have in your whole life! Bring a friend or relative whose opinion you trust and start trying on dresses. From rich brocades to gorgeous fabrics, your wedding dress can be a statement in luxury in and of itself! Where to shop for the dress of your dreams? If the wedding boutiques near you don’t have the selection to suit your tastes, consider planning a trip around your wedding shopping experience – but make sure the store you are going to will be able to ship the dress to your home, as you will need to take care of fittings with a local seamstress. Consider heading to New York or LA for the ultimate wedding dress shopping extravaganza! Or, find a designer you love and visit their shop - if you aren’t able to get to the actual boutique, head online.

Customization

If you’ve decided to spend a small fortune on the dress you just have to have, make sure you allocate enough money to alter your dress – and pay for the accessories! If you have a high budget, you will likely choose a more intricate dress, with lots of hand-created embellishments. Consider having your entire wedding dress created just for you by working with a local designer! The designer will be able to create a custom-made dress, just for you, that will be striking and just to your specifications!


Make It Match

As you choose the dress of your dreams, make sure the rest of your day has a similar amount of lavishness! If your dress is a jeweled masterpiece, it may look out of place at a simple garden ceremony. Your dress should compliment your surroundings and add to the allure of the day. No matter what you pay for your wedding dress, make sure you choose a gown that makes you feel beautiful, comfortable, and happy!
