A Guide for Brides: How to Pick a Wedding Dress?

Whether you’re a summer or a winter bride, finding the perfect wedding dress can be stressful. Since it's one of the most expensive dresses you will ever own, the pressure of picking the right one can be overwhelming.

So if you're about to walk down the aisle and looking for the dream wedding dress, the experts at our bridal boutique in Denver can help you.

Here are some tips that will make this task a breeze.


Set a Budget

Wedding dresses can be pricey, especially if you have expensive taste and are looking for specific details. But we have some tips to lower these costs. Consider going to sample sales to find great picks at unbelievable costs.

Generally, wedding ensembles, including accessories, bridal veils, undergarments, etc., take up 10 to 15% of the overall wedding expenses. Your goal is to stick to this budget while ensuring you manage dress alterations within it..


Do Your Due Diligence

It’s not every day that you step out to choose your wedding dress. From deciding on the wedding train to the silhouette, there's a lot to settle on. To prepare yourself for this, do your research.

Learn about wedding dresses, including silhouettes, fabrics, trains, and other details.


Pick a Style

There are two types of brides: those who have all the details sorted and those who go with the flow.

While it's good to relax and not let the stress of wedding preps get to you, our experts think it's great to have a style in mind. You could choose from a classic, romantic, vintage, or any other wedding dress style; just make sure that you know what you want before you go shopping for it.


Consider the Season

Getting married in the summer? Choose airy, light fabrics. These will keep you from sweating and be comfy to wear. However, if you're getting married in the winter, say yes to richer fabrics like satin or taffeta.


Select a Silhouette

To choose the perfect wedding dress silhouette, consider your style, body type, wedding theme, etc. From a classic sheath to a fit-and-flare, there are plenty of options you can choose from.


Keep Your Options Open

At our bridal boutique, we’ve seen many women arrive with an idea of the type of gown they want, only to realize it's not their dream dress and end up falling in love with something different. So it’s crucial to keep an open mind when shopping for a wedding dress.
