How To Be The Most Gorgeous Bride In The World?

Focus On Location

Although it may seem like this suggestion makes no sense when it comes to choosing the best wedding dress, it actually has a lot to do with your choice. For instance, if you’re planning to have a wedding on the beach, then too elegant ball gowns that come with long trains may not be the best choice.

On the other hand, if a breathtaking cathedral is the place of your choosing, then maybe you should exclude options like short dresses, or anything that appears to be too informal for a place of this kind.

If you’re planning to get married in spring or summer, then organdy or linen are the best choices. On the other hand, if it’s in winter or autumn then brocade and velvet are definitely the most suitable.

 

Get Out Of Your Comfort Zone

Staying safe may be the most convenient option, but is it always the best? You probably already have a certain fashion sense, but it doesn’t mean that you should say no to other styles! It doesn’t hurt to try.

In these types of situations, maybe you should give all your trust to the consultant. He or she may even suggest something you’ve never considered before. Now, wedding gurus at JOVANI Mother of the Bride Dresses suggest that brides often buy a wedding dress that normally would have never been their choice. It’s all because they were listening to their bridal consultant.

These people know what they are doing and even though you think you know yourself the best, at times, it’s better to follow their lead. Now, it doesn’t mean that you should be silent when it comes to your opinion.

Each time you try out a dress, let the consultant know what you do or do not like about it. For example, if you do not think your waist looks appealing in an A-line wedding dress, then you should definitely skip it.

 

 

Focus On These Things As Well

Embrace Your Hips

Unfortunately, a lot of women are too conscious of their hips, which is why they often avoid dresses that accentuate them. If you’re one of them, then you should opt for a dress that simply flares out from the waist.

Frequently, your underbust or waist are going to be the smallest part of your trunk. Therefore, you should pick something that’s going to flare out from here to make an illusion that you’re very narrow.

Now, a lot of women are prone to this mistake. Namely, they think that if they purchase something that is extremely tight around their thighs and hips that it is going to tuck and suck them in.

Well, the truth is, that’s not going to happen. In fact, they are only going to further highlight this area. On the other hand, if you love your hips, or you just want to accentuate your curvy side, then this is definitely an amazing option.

 

Are You Familiar With Your Style?

If the answer is no, then you should definitely get to know yourself better, because this is an important element when it comes to choosing the best wedding dress. For instance, if you are deep down a boho girl, then a princess dress may not be the best option for you.

Now, it doesn’t mean that it should be perceived as forbidden, but it surely shouldn’t be your first choice. Besides clothing, you have to focus on other things you like that define your personal style.

As we previously mentioned (when we talked about location), if you do not like to accentuate any body parts, and you love long sleeves, then this type of style is the best for more conservative locations.

On the other hand, if you’re not afraid to showcase your feminine or sexy side, then feel free to choose venues that are much more relaxed and flexible, such as city venues, etc. That’s why you should carefully analyze your style because it is going to impact many things when it comes to your wedding.

 

Determine A Budget

This is extremely important because you do not want to fall in love with a dress, only to realize that you are not able to afford it, hence, you should immediately let the salesperson know how much money you have.

Usually, a wedding ensemble (which involves veil undergarments and other things) accounts for almost 15% of the total wedding cost. Now, bear in mind that sometimes dresses require some type of alterations, which means that you will have to spend some extra cash.

 

Make Appointments

Speaking of wedding dresses, you shouldn’t be focusing only on one store. On the contrary. You should try out gowns in more than one. If you’re not sure where to go, you can always consult your friends or family members.

If you've found some dresses that seem like the perfect choice, make sure to show them when you arrive at the salon. Who knows, maybe they have gowns that are similar to them or look exactly the same. Oh and don't forget to invite important people, such as your sister, mother, bridesmaids, maid of honor, etc.

 

Dressing up for your wedding may be a bit stressful, but it sure is exciting, especially if you already know what you want. If that's not the case, then simply follow some of the tips that were mentioned and you'll do great!
