Wedding Dress Stress
On one of the most important days of your life, you want to look nothing less than perfect. But don’t let the process of finding the right dress stress you out! There are a few common concerns that every blushing bride deals with when picking their dress, but there are many ways to deal with them.
Too Many Choices!
There are tens of thousands of choices for your gown out there, but don’t let that overwhelm you. Try to choose a specific category and style before you ever step foot inside a store. As in, do you want a designer dress? Or a knock off? A new dress? Or a used one? These are all things to consider before shopping. Also, when you finally go to the store, don’t get frustrated if you don’t find the perfect one in the first five minutes. Stay calm and remember what you’re there for, to find a beautiful gown for your wedding. You may want to enlist the help of a professional or a store employee, someone who knows what to look for and where. Try to have fun when you’re shopping!
How Much Does This Cost?!
Prices for wedding dresses are all across the board. A used dress could cost as low as $200, but a used designer dress could cost as much as $3,500. Brand new dresses can run between $350 up to $10,000! With this in mind, figure out what your budget is, and once you do, try your best to stick to it. This is where professionals can help, just tell them what style and price range and they will help as much as they can. If you do find one that you love but is out of your budget by a lot, ask the professional or store employee if they have something very similar but at a lower price. Also, if you find one you love that is below your budget, that’s great! Don’t think that just because a dress is more expensive it will look better. Because sometimes, that’s not the case.
Stress Related Weight Fluctuations
Planning your wedding can be a very stressful time if you let it. With this in mind, try to manage your stress with exercise and a healthy diet. Not only will that make you feel better, your stress level will lower, you’ll be happy (because of endorphins), and you won’t have to worry about getting a last second alteration to your corset top! This will make your dress buying experience a breeze.
Don’t Sweat the Small Stuff
Whatever dress you choose, you will look stunning on your wedding day. No one, especially your husband-to-be, will be able to take their eyes off you. You will look and feel perfect. So if there’s a tiny mishap with a button, tie, or zipper, or you get a tiny snag, don’t worry about it!! Don’t let something so small ruin one of the happiest day of your life.
