Shopping for the perfect wedding dress

Having a friend that sells wedding dresses, has a flair for fashion and comes from New York City is just a recipe for fun!

Persnickty Formalwear, The Pink Hanger and Anne Porter spell fun!  New York City women have a stereotype of being bossy, lots of energy and domineering.  Yep, that is Anne.  The other things about Anne are that she knows her dresses.  She knows girls, wedding dresses, making you feel comfortable and above all she knows how to have fun.

So the big day is approaching.  A little girl’s dream coming true.  Now the wedding dress, the budget, feeling pretty and having fun -vs- getting totally stressed.

My wedding dress was the highlight of my special day.  The photos and the dress are still so fun to look at and will be forever remembered.  I feel so pretty in my wedding dress.
Shopping for a wedding dress can be overwhelming.  I relate the experience of buying my wedding dress to buying my home.  I did not do much of the work.  My realtor found my home and my wedding dress consultant choose my dress.  Find yourself a wedding dress shop that you are comfortable with the staff, they know how to have fun, they give you options, allow for emotions and questions.  Find a wedding dress shop that has a tailor on staff and that will adjust the dress for no additional fee.

Many girls get overwhelmed and feel that they need to go to every wedding dress shop in their area as well as traveling.  I live in a small southern Montana town, so traveling for the perfect wedding dress could include miles to Billings, Montana or even more mileage to Salt Lake City, Utah.  In the end many girls get frustrated and end up wearing a dress that fits their budget rather than fitting their personality.   Personalities and budgets can and do go together.  Collect pictures of wedding dresses from magazines and bring them with when trying on wedding dresses.
