Buy 2 or 3 bridal magazines (you really don't need more – they are expensive, and flip through more than 3 and you'll just keep seeing the same styles over and over).Tear out pictures of the dresses you like – you'll start to notice you are drawn to certain skirt or bodice styles, necklines and details -- and write on the picture the magazine name and page number it came from so that you can contact BestBridalPrices.com later for pricing and availability -- as an authorized retailer of many lines, we can tell you exactly which dress is in their ad.
You know your body best. If you have what may be considered a "rectangle" figure, the proportions of your chest and hips are similar with minimal waist definition, thus creating the 'rectangle' silhouette.
Keep in mind: Love your body because we are all unique. Use these suggestions as guidelines since many wedding dress designers have full liberty to create, invent, and mix and match styles.
Will you be married at your family church in Chicago in December, or at the Garden Club in New Orleans in July? One dress would not likely suit both weddings – think of your church decorated for Christmas with the icy Chicago wind blowing off Lake Michigan versus the sultry, hot, humidity of a lazy New Orleans July day.
Almost 80% of LearnVest readers said they'd at least consider a used wedding dress on the big day. Yes, someone else wore it already. But only once. You can have it professionally cleaned, and may be able to afford a higher end designer this way. Many sites use a peer-to-peer model, so you contact the seller directly. You can ask all kinds of questions (see below) and arrange shipping and return logistics. Pro: Because you're dealing directly with the seller, you can negotiate the price. Con: You're dealing with an individual as opposed to a business, so build in the unpredictability factor.
