5 things to bring to your bridal appointment
Our top 5 best things to bring to your bridal appointment that will help you get the most out of your time and ensure it runs super smoothly so that you have the best time and find your perfect dress!
Nude underwear
As the dresses are light in colour and often have illusion (see-through) details, particularly at the back of the gown, we find that nude underwear will give you the best vision of the dress without dark underwear interfering with the look. Most of our gowns don’t actually need to be worn with a bra so you can also remove your bra during your appointment if you would like to as that can change how dresses look (don’t worry - we don’t see you undressed!).
Hair tie/hair clip
A handy hair clip is great for testing how an up-do would look with a gown so if you don’t know how you want to wear your hair just yet you can experiment with it up and down whilst wearing the dresses. If you know you are wearing your hair a certain way, it might be a good idea to wear your hair similarly to your appointment.
Shapewear
If you think you’d like to wear shapewear on your wedding day then you are more than welcome to wear it to your appointment. This way you can see how you would look and feel in dresses and get a great idea of how you will look on your big day. Shapewear can also be great if you love fitted dresses, particularly crepe fabric dresses, as they will give you the best support under your dress. This definitely isn’t essential, go with what you feel most comfortable in!
Some initial dress ideas
While not essential, a few initial ideas gives us a great starting point at your appointment. You can bring a list of your fave dresses, screenshot some dresses on our website that have caught your eye or even show us a few pinned dresses on pinterest to get an overall idea of the vibe you are going for. Although we may not have every dress on your list in your size, we can then use this to guide you on the dresses we have available that we think you might love.
A few supportive and positive guests
We recommend bringing 1-3 guests that you know will support you and be honest, but also listen to what you are loving too. Remember - this is your day and how you feel in your dress is the one thing that will determine whether you’ve found your dress, so you need guests that will support you in your decisions. We have seating for 5 guests during each appointment.
Lastly, ensure you come with an open mind and enjoy your appointment - a positive mindset will help you have the best time and make lovely memories. We can’t wait to help you find your dream dress - message us here if you’ve got any questions at all about your appointment!
