- Take a long deep breath and enjoy your bridal journey!
- Shop for your dress 6 - 12 months before your wedding date. This will allow time for alterations and final fittings.
- Set aside a special day just for your dress shopping. You want to be energized but relaxed, as finding your gown is such a special time.
- Limit your entourage to two to four people whose opinions you respect the most. Too many voices in the suite can be overwhelming. Everyone should eat something before attending your appointment.
- It’s a good idea to shower, do your hair and wear a little makeup (don’t use spray tan) on the day of your appointment. You want to feel glamours when trying on gowns.
- Wear or bring a seamless pair of nude undies, shapewear and a few good bras. With the right undergarments you will have a better idea of how a dress will look and how comfortable you will be in it.
- Bring the shoe or optimum heel height to your appointment.
- Have an idea of what shape or silhouette you are looking for. Be open minded and try on different silhouettes, if only to exclude quickly. You will be surprised!
- Shop for your bridesmaids and other special dresses on a different day from your bridal dress.
- Have fun and embrace your visit at JBL Bridal Company!
