Wedding dress shopping review

Simone, on October 15, 2016 at 23:50 Posted in Wedding fashion 0 4
Hello everyone,
Today was the day I went wedding shopping. My mother, grandmother and maid of honor who is my sister-in-law joined. Unfortunately, due to unforeseen circumstances my future mother could not attend but asked me to take pictures of all the dresses. We went to a bridal shop and the lady was so nice, she reminded my of Lori of "Say Yes To The Dress: Atlanta". She was super nice, explain the details of the dresses I put on and took the time to explain her zero tolerance policy on body shaming and being outright rude. The group was awesome and I had no worries as they are super supportive and go into the experience . I really wanted to posts the photos of the dress tried on but the lady requested that I not posted them on social media as she has had identity theft and people steal her design. I want respect her wishes. I am down to three dresses that I like and they are all ballroom-princess dresses with long trains and beautiful details. I like the my group were given signs that said "Yes" or "No" to the dresses. I tried on at least 20 dresses and out that, three I said a no along with the group. Mom and including my Granmother's along with the MOH were amazing to see. I rate my overall experience a 10 out of 10. Either next moth or December I will book another appointment to try on the three dresses and hope to pick one with the tiara I ordered and wear this on my wedding day!Smiley smile

    Hi Emilie, thank you so much! I can say that did go into a different style of dress as I felt more drawn to the ball gown and it complimented the whole feel of our wedding. I wanted to get some gold beading or prints in the detail to compliment the theme color of the day. The bridal store is a small business, friendly service and the owner does not pressure anyone to buy their gown right away. The nice part about this shop it's that you get one-one attention and there is no rush. She mentioned that she designs them and she has had identity theft as a result of someone posting them online. I look forward to choosing the dress and I will let you know of the choice I made. Smiley smile

    Hi Simone Smiley heart I'm so glad you had such a great experience at the bridal store!!

    I love what the lady told you at the bridal store about her zero tolerance on body shaming. I think that's a wonderful attitude!! Right on! Smiley winking

    It's too bad she didn't want you to post any picture, but from what you're describing they really do look amazing! I just had a look at your discussion: Wedding dress choices

    I really like both of them! I think the style looks somewhat like the first ones you posted in the community, between a-line and ball gown. Do you feel like you went for a different style than what you originally expected?

    What kind of bridal store is it? Does she design all the wedding dresses herself? Is it a big company?

    Can't wait to hear all about it and see which dress you'll choose in December! Smiley smile
