300 To Choice A Wedding Dress

• Don't start trying on gowns until you've
  confirmed a few logistics What time of year will
  the wedding take place? Where will the reception
  be? This will keep you from buying a dress about
  kelly prom that won't feel right on the day
  (velvet for a garden wedding, a billowing skirt
  for a reception in a tiny restaurant). But don't
  wait too long to begin shopping. It takes four to
  six months to have a dress made and fitted,
  sometimes longer for one with intricate handwork.
  If you start shopping eight to twelve months in
  advance, you won't feel rushed -- or encounter
  rush charges.
• With the price of traditional wedding gowns
  starting around 500, it is also important to
  establish your budget before setting foot in a
  store. "People should not be afraid to talk about
  price," says Nancy Williams, sales manager at
  Vera Wang in New York City. "Everyone has a
  budget. Even if it's 20,000, it's a budget."
  Without a price range in mind, you risk
  overspending or falling in love with something
  you can't afford. Williams also reminds brides to
  make a distinction between the cost of the dress
  and the cost of the entire ensemble -- if you're
  going the traditional route, you'll probably want
  a headpiece, shoes, lingerie, and jewelry
  alterations add hundreds of dollars to the price.
  "So if you are willing to spend 400," says
  Williams, "maybe you should have a 300 dress."
• Most brides buy their dresses at a bridal
  boutique, whether an intimate shop or a bridal
  emporium, part of a department store, or a store
  owned by and featuring one designer. But if you
  envision something other than a traditional gown
  or if your budget is restricted, take a creative
  approach to shopping. Peruse vintage-clothing
  stores, consignment shops, and discount or outlet
  stores. Ask bridal boutiques if their samples
  ever go on sale. Consider bridesmaids' dresses
  and evening gowns, which are less expensive and
  formal but can still be appropriate. You can also
  have something made by a local dressmaker or even
  rent a alyce bdazzle prom 35340 gown.
