Advice: How to choose your wedding dress

Happy Wednesday, beautiful brides! We are so happy for all of newly engaged ladies, and feel the excitement for all of our brides tying the knot this holiday seaoson! What a fun time of year.

For those who just got engaged, this one is for you! We’re going to give our top 10 pieces of advice on how to choose your wedding dress.

1. Schedule your appointment at Patsy’s. It’s never too early as most dresses take up to 6 months, plus a month or two for alterations
2. Bring a friend or two (or a mom and sister!) but don’t bring the whole squad
3. Plan to arrive a few minutes early to your appointment, so you’re calm, collected and stress-free before your fun visit
4. Listen to your heart—not the crowd watching you try on dresses. This is your Choose what you love!
5. Do your research if you want (hello Pinterest!)—let us know what you’ve been eyeing and our expert consultants will help find the dress of your dreams
6. Don’t try on TOO many dresses, but try on as many as you need to!
7. Snap some photos to look over later that day
8. Feel free to personalize your gown: monogram on the underside, add a glitzy belt, etc.
9. Wear your nice undergarments. You’ll feel more confident as you’re trying on
10. Ask questions. We want you to feel beautiful walking down the aisle on your big day!
