Dress prices range from a few hundred to a few thousand, depending on how much detail and glamour you want. Wedding dresses exist for every kind of budget, but you want to decide on the budget first. You don't want to fall in love with a dress you can't pay for.
There are many different types of dress silhouettes, each body type has their own preferred style, but ultimately the choice is yours. Do you want to look like a princess in an A-line dress or do you want to show of you curves in a mermaid gown?
Are you going for boho? Glamour? Sparkle? Or are you keeping it minimalistic and modern?
Brides often change their minds about what they want during their fitting appointments, but it's always a good idea to have soms kind of vision before you start your dress shopping journey.
If you go dress shopping with family and/or friends, I can guarantee you everyone is going to have an opinion. And more often than not they won't agree with you or with each other. It can get overwheming because you want everyone's approval, but only one opinion really matters: YOUR OWN. Do you feel comfortable? Is this something you would wear or are you just trying to please grandma?
Have you ever heard about Pinterest? It's a great resource to help yourself discover what you like, which designers you love and how expensive your taste is. You appointments will go a lot smoother if you can show your stylist what your looking for.
Ideally, you order your dress 10 months in advance for you wedding, but that doesn't mean you don't have the time to find you dream dress. Don't say yes to the dress just because you think you don't have time to look for your dream dress anymore. 10 months is just a guideline so you won't get stressed, but most of the time designers take speed orders - with an extra cost of course, but it's possible. Don't settle for a dress if you're not completely happy yet.
