The fitting room can be a scary place for a lot of people. In stores, we go in with items we like and we are usually alone. Here we can pass judgment on whether if not we like something. Sometimes we will get the opinion of a friend, but for the most part, we let our own expertise on our bodies decide if we like something or not.
In the bridal industry, you are never alone in a fitting room. You will always be assisted by your bridal consultant. This can be uncomfortable for some people which is why it is always recommended to go to the appointment in undergarments you feel comfortable being seen in. Just remember, this is a judge free environment. Your consultant is there to help you look your best, not judge the way you look. Bridal dresses are made for all shapes and sizes and your consultant will help you to find the best dress for your body.
Have faith! Keep an open mind and most importantly, never verbally abuse yourself. There is nothing more frustrating to your consultant or the people you brought along than hearing you talk bad about yourself. They are all on your side and want to help you look perfect. If you don’t like something about your body and wish to hide it, let your consultant know. This can easily be accommodated. Stay positive; your dress is out there and you are going to look fabulous. Also, give feedback. There is no shame in letting the consultant know you don’t like something or the style isn’t for you, but remember to keep an open mind. What you might think would look awful on you could potentially end up being the dress.

When it comes to looking for the perfect flower girl dress, the idea of the bride’s dress comes to mind. In essence, the flower girl is a little bride. This little girl will most likely remember this moment forever as she will feel like a princess. A quality dress whether custom made or selected from a collection, will enhance the wedding’s overall appearance. This is, after all, the idea behind picking the bridal gown and the dresses for the bridal party. She may be small, but the flower girl still deserves the best! A happy flower girl makes for a problem free entrance and perfect pictures. After all, no one wants a tantrum down the aisle or photos of a sad little girl!
The fabulous thing about these flower girl gowns is that they can be utilized again in the future. Many of the dresses are, for the most part, a basic silhouette. With slight modifications, or even just as they are, they can dually serve the purpose as a first communion gown, a pageant gown or even a holiday dress. This is definitely worth taking into consideration if you are a bit skeptical on the price, although they are quite reasonable considering the craftsmanship and quality. If a traditional silhouette isn’t a good fit for the theme of the wedding, going the custom made route is always an option. What a way to really make her feel special!

To stand out as a bride, wear a tiara…or an exclusive, hand-made flower hippie headband to be placed upon your crown…bohemian beautiful.
REVIEW
It’s all about adding & accessorizing withoutbeing tacky.
Adding some color : A wedding dress does not have to be one plain color. Sometimes adding a splash of color can make your dress stand out of the crowd. By adding color to your wedding dress, you are making your dress unique and giving it your own style.
Adding a ribbon on the waist can show off your curves and your individuality. Use the colors of your bridesmaid’s dresses as a clue to the right color, and you will look wonderful together. Your train could also include a little bit of this color. Adding a color can be done anywhere including in your hair, with the bouquet, or many other options. This option is a very modern idea and can translate into some very beautiful pictures.
Accessories: A bride’s wedding look is not just about the dress. The dress is not complete without some accessories. These can include your hairpiece, bouquet and shoes. For your hair, you can choose to go with a simple veil, or try something like a crown. Your shoes complete your look. If your wedding is on the beach, do not be afraid to go barefoot or in sandals. The best way to keep your look unique is to have fun and remember that this is your day and you make the rules. If you want to add accessories to the dress itself, you can add bows, buttons, or other embellishments to the dress.
Unique add-ons to your dress will make the dress seem more like your own. Every bride should have a wedding dress that makes her feel beautiful, but also reflects her own style. Add or subtract sleeves, add color, and do not forget some accessories and you will have a wedding day look that everyone will remember.
