We recommend that you wear nude underwear and bring shoes with the heel height you hope to wear on the big day.

Hi There,

  If you're trying dresses on maybe wear a strapless bra, take a note pad and pen just incase you want to jot down name of a gown you might feel comfortable with especially if you're shopping at different bridal stores. 

It's a good idea dress shopping, to try on different styles, take photos if the store allows especially if you're unsure of style/design, take friends and/or family for opinions, don't feel pressured to buy or place deposit unless you're sure you found the ONE.

Enjoy the experience and have fun. if it's too overwhelming, as some ladies may find it so, or can't find what you are looking for, a reputable dressmaker is always an option.

I would be happy to assist you with styles best suited for your body shape and personality if you're not sure, we can discuss and customise your gown adding all your preferences either from pictures or your ideas to bring your vision to life. 

Most importantly, remember, it's your big day and your gown should be exactly as you want it to be.  Wish you all the best on your journey. :)

Bring an open mind!  Be open to trying on lots of different styles as this will help you narrow down first the right style and then the perfect dress.

If you have images of dresses that you have seen in magazines or online, bring them along too as this will help your assistant find gowns for you to try on.

You really don't need to bring anything when you are dress shopping other than maybe your shoes if you have them already. It is also a  good idea to wear a strapless bra just in case you try on dresses that are strapless.
