You are excited! We can feel your enthusiasm from here but take a deep breath. Slowing down and doing a little research can create a more enjoyable experience for you.
Scheduling an appointment
When scheduling an appointment, do your research! It isn't a bad idea to look up local bridal salons. Check out their websites to get a feel for what they have to offer. When you have found the store that you want to go shop at, you can make an appointment starting there. This can usually be done by calling, or making an online appointment!
Don't be afraid to say yes right away
If you're at your first appointment, and you feel like you have found the one, don't be afraid to say yes! This can alleviate stress when making this big decision. Sometimes trying on too many dresses can become confusing and more stressful for the bride to be. It doesn't have to be a hard decision, sometimes it can be the easiest second yes.
Don't feel like you're missing out
When shopping for your dress, don't feel the need to go to every store to get the bridal experience. The experience can be just as special with the ones you love while only going to one store. After you have said yes to your dress, go grab mimosas or lunch with your girls to celebrate your exciting day!
Stop looking at dresses after you've found the one
Don't confuse yourself by looking at other gowns. Trust yourself that you have made the right decision. There’s always going to be more dresses out there, and you can never actually see all of them. You know yourself best, and try not to overthink your dress. At the end of the day, your wedding will be perfect and everything you dreamed of.
