It's your wedding day! Naturally, you want nothing but the best - the best bridesmaid dresses, wedding invitations, wedding favours, and of course, the perfect wedding dress for you! You've been anticipating this day all your life and now that it's here, you can't wait to shop for your dream gown. All along, you've wanted to try on those designer wedding dresses but were too afraid to do so. Now that you finally have a valid reason to do so, you can joyfully prance into bridal shops.
But from the many choices of designer wedding dresses, how do you know which one to choose? How do you know which style to pick? Here are a few pointers so you will continue to be the blushing bride:
Take a Look at Your Budget
Face it, designer wedding dresses are nothing but cheap. Thus, the moment that you decide to get one, you must already have a specific budged allotted for it. Work on your budget. The last thing that you want to happen is to spend all your money in your wedding gown and leave the other aspects of the wedding ceremony budget-stricken.
Find your Designer
Now this is the most interesting part when shopping for designer wedding dresses. You get to choose your very own designer. Are you a Monique Lhuillier fan or a Vera Wang advocate? If you choose their designer wedding dresses, then you will be putting yourself in the same level as Britney Spears, Victoria Beckham, Sharon Stone and Mariah Carey. Isn't that wonderful?
Find your Style
Designer gown or not, your wedding dress must exude a classic style. It doesn't matter whether you are searching for wedding dresses in Mississauga or in New York, the important thing is, you go for a style that will last a lifetime. Your wedding photos will still be alive after 50 years and when that time comes, you don't want your friends to guess the exact season and time that you've had your wedding. If that happens, it means that you've chosen a very season-specific style and unlike some mothers, you won't be able to pass on our designer wedding gown to your daughter.
Don't Panic
Designer wedding dresses - including yours - take about 5 to 10 months to be special ordered. If you don't have that much time -probably because the wedding plans came abruptly - don't panic. You can always find other designers. But if you don't want to change designers, you could always shop for designer wedding dresses off-the-rack.
Your wedding gown is the highlight of your wedding. After all, you are the bride, and you must be the most beautiful woman in the room. Therefore, it's but proper that you take a considerable amount of time - and money - looking for the dress that will not only flaunt your timeless beauty but one that will express love and romance as well. Nobody will blame you if you fret and worry about not finding the gown of your dreams. It is for this very reason that designer wedding dresses came into being.
