You can rest assured that if anyone can give you the top tips to finding the perfect wedding dress, it’ll be the team at Ever After Bridal Wear in Durbanville, Cape Town.
Here are their tips for finding the perfect wedding dress:
Start early
If you don’t have much time before your wedding day, it’ll be much easier on you to hire one of the stunning designer wedding dresses gracing the racks at Ever After Bridal. With a nip and tuck here and there, you’ll be wearing a wedding dress that looks like as if it’s taken months to create.
When you do have the luxury of time, try to get started at least six to nine months ahead of shopping for the dress. This will be time enough for all the alterations to be done, time enough to give you space to breathe once you’ve found the dress of your dreams. There’s more than enough for you to do in organising the wedding, without adding the stress of not having your wedding dress ready on time to top it all off.
Budget
We’d all love a budget for a wedding dress that has no limit, however, you need to set a realistic budget when it comes to shopping for a wedding dress, or you’ll head for the pitfall of falling in love with a dress that is far outside of your budget and then have to face the let-down.
The team at Ever After Bridal will encourage you to be completely open and honest with them about your budget, because this helps them to help you remain grounded and focussed on dresses that will easily suit the price range you have shared with them.
Venue & location
What you wear to a formal church wedding will naturally be completely different to what you’d wear if you’re getting married on the beach. It’s more important than you may thing to realise that your dress needs to suit the venue, location and the mood you want to set on the day.
Open mindedness
You may find it hard to believe, but many brides have gone shopping for a dress in a specific style, only to fall in love with something completely different to her original idea, so try to keep an open mind along the way.
The team at Ever After Bridal guide you through all the silhouettes that suit your body shape, and, they’ll introduce you to a wide range of fabrics that might just have you walking out with a completely different idea of what you’d like to look like on your wedding day.
Body shape
This is fundamental to successful wedding dress shopping! If you know your body shape you’ll definitely be heading in the right direction to find a dress that’ll make the most of your natural assets and hiding anything you want hidden!
On a final note; feeling confident in your wedding dress starts with how comfortable you’ll be in it for as many hours as you’ll be wearing it. This means it’s always a good idea to sit and walk around in each dress you fit. It’s the best way to be sure that you’ll be able to get through the many hours you’ll be in it, gracefully.
Bring your dreams of the perfect wedding dress to the passionate team at Ever After Bridal and watch those dreams come true! The personal, undivided attention you’ll have from these consultants will make the journey an adventure in fun, yet another good memory to add to the rest you make on your wedding day!
