If you are already engaged and in the process of planning your wedding (or if you are just one of the dreamers who always has that day in mind even though you are not yet engaged), chances are you have heard the phrase “You will know immediately when you have found your dress, bride”.
Many brides who have come to our bridal atelier and have confessed to us that they find it hard to believe that phrase until suddenly they see it and experience it for themselves. However, and for those future brides who are more practical and even skeptical, we have compiled a list of signs that will help you determine that you have already found your perfect dress.
Comfort
We always say it and we will not tire of it. There are beautiful tuxedo suits and dresses, but on your wedding day you will spend a lot of time in your dress and you will be receiving guests, moving from one place to another, taking photos and, better yet, dancing. That is why it is so important that you choose a comfortable dress. So during the tests, does not stay still, move and make sure it is comfortable so that it is not an impediment to the enjoyment of this very special celebration.
It doesn’t feel like a costume
There are many styles of wedding dresses, from the simplest to the princess style. There are brides who prefer a very traditional dress, others like to break some rules and add their own style to the silhouette they will wear on their wedding day.
The dress you choose should always make you feel like the most beautiful in the room, but it should also feel like it’s yours, something you would wear. No matter how beautiful a dress is, if it is not your style, it will not allow you to enjoy your wedding properly because you will be too aware of it all the time and that is not what you want.
The dress flatters your body shape
It is likely that when looking for your wedding suit you already have an idea of what you want (and if not, nothing happens either).
Keep in mind that each bride is different and although, as we said before, it is important that you style your dress, we always recommend that you ask for a second opinion.
The final decision will always be yours, but having a sincere companion who can give you a second opinion is always an excellent decision. In our atelier, for example, our designers have a lot of experience so they can also act as advisers to find the silhouette that best suits you.
That feeling
We know that this signal is not something measurable and that it sounds a bit vague, but the brides we have spoken with have described it as “that feeling” of having found it.
Some brides even have tears in their eyes and have told us that it’s just seeing them and feeling so beautiful that they can’t control it. No matter how many dresses you try on, the dress that manages to awaken “that feeling” in you will no longer have any competition, all the dresses you try on from that moment on will be compared to this one.
If this happens to you during the first search and you still don’t feel comfortable choosing it without trying on other models, remember to take many photos so that you can compare subsequent tests with this one that has made you feel so many things.
You pick it for all the right reasons
Did your fiance tell you that he wanted to see you in a ball gown instead of a mermaid dress as you imagined? Mom is also crying when she sees you in a party dress but you always imagined yourself in a mermaid wedding dress? Do not decide on a dress to make others happy.
It’s okay to want them to like your wedding dress, but they will love you in whatever you wear. You want to look at your wedding photos 30 years from now and remember how much you loved your wedding dress.
Plus, sometimes you can get a great deal on a wedding dress that’s just too hard to pass up. Buying a wedding dress just because it fits your budget is a big no-no. You don’t want to have buyer’s remorse for something that is on final sale. The most important reason to buy your wedding dress is because you love it.
