Wedding Dresses

Once you have found some of your favourite styles you can then easily use Hitched to find your nearest stockist of that designer and make an appointment to go and try on your favourites. If you have some very specific ideas then do keep in mind that you might need to visit a few dress shops to try on each of the dresses you love, if that’s the case then why not have lunch in between and turn it into a fun day out.

A Wedding Dress to Suit Your Wedding Style

If you are searching for the right dress for you but just don’t know where to start then begin by thinking about your own personal style, body type and also the type of wedding you want to have. For example if you are planning a fairytale wedding day full of glitz and glamour then a ballgown could be perfect for you.

If you dream of having a vintage-style wedding day, a delicate lace wedding dress will go hand-in-hand with your theme and is also a very flattering. Your lovely lace gown could be completed with a birdcage veil or simple pearl earrings.

Perhaps you are thinking about a destination wedding? In that case look for beach wedding dress styles, with floating layers and a gorgeous Grecian style.

For brides that want to surprise their wedding guests with a gown that is a little bit different then how about wearing a shorter style. Whether it’s a tea-length dress for a fab fifties look or a micro mini for a super-chic city wedding, you will find lots of ideas as you browse our wedding dress pages.

Shopping for Your Wedding Dress

When it comes to shopping for your dress, be prepared. Wear underwear that is neutral and pick a bra that you know fits you really well and gives your bust a great shape. Most bridal shops will provide shoes for you to try on so you won’t need to worry too much about finding the perfect footwear for your bridal look just yet.

If you find a few dresses that you really love then don’t forget to try on accessories with the gown – slipping on a beautiful wedding veil to complete the look can really give you goosebumps and also makes you really feel like a bride.

Also consider carefully who to bring with you for your shopping trip – try to limit the number of people you bring with you for those initial appointments as too many opinions can be overwhelming. Ensure you take trusted friends or family that you know will give you their honest opinion.

If you are concerned about leaving some people out by limiting the numbers then they can always come to your fittings with you once those important initial decisions have already been made and you can have lots of fun picking out all your bridal accessories.
