TARA STUART AT ROMSEY BRIDAL BOUTIQUE The key to finding your perfect wedding dress is to leave yourself plenty of time and do your research! Wedding dresses can take up to six months to make, and you need to allow time for alterations. Starting your search up to 12 months before your special day is a great time to start. The last thing you want is to feel pressured and panic buy! All bridal boutiques are different. Not only do we all have dress designers exclusive to us within our locations, but we all have our own styles. For example, Romsey Bridal Boutique is a quant boutique offering one-to-one service to our brides. You and your guests have the boutique to yourselves during your appointment, which ensures the experience is a special and memorable one. Doing your research before you book will ensure your dress search goes smoothly and that you get the experience you’re looking for. Be open to surprises! It’s a good idea to think about the style of dress you want to wear. However, experienced bridal stylists have a lot of knowledge and will guide you to shapes and styles you may never have thought of. Often, our brides fall in love with something very unexpected. Trust your gut and choose the dress you love; it should make you feel confident and beautiful! The loved ones who join you at your appointment will have an opinion, that’s why you brought them with you, but the ultimate decision has to come from your heart. Last but not least, enjoy the journey. Choosing your wedding dress is a magical moment you’ll cherish for a long time.
