Tips For Buying Your Wedding Dress
Q: How long before my wedding do I need to buy my wedding gown?
A: If you are going to order your gown from a retail shop a good rule of thumb is to order your gown 6 months prior to your wedding date.
Q: What if I am within the 6 month or less time period before my wedding?
A: Almond Tree Wedding Boutique is an off the rack service, offering a vast array of gowns at affordable prices for you to take same day.
Q: I am dieting right now and plan to lose a great deal of weight before my wedding what size dress should I buy?
A: Never buy a smaller dress with the idea that you will lose enough weight to fit it. This is a recipe for disaster. The best option is to purchase a gown in a size most closely fitting you now and alter it down 1 month prior to your wedding.
Q: When should I get my wedding dress altered?
A: It is best to consult with your alterations person for 4 to 5 weeks prior to your wedding date.
Q: When the bridal associate asks about the budget what should I say, as I don’t have alot of money and I don’t want to be embarrassed?
A: Always honest about your budget, there is nothing to be ashamed of (if you are really concerned with your entourage knowing your budget tell the associate when you are in the dressing room). The bridal associate wants to help you find the perfect gown no matter what the price is. She doesn’t want to bring you a gown you can’t possibly afford and cause you frustration.
Q: I really like one of the gowns I tried on but I wish it had a sweetheart neckline what can I do?
A: Keep in mind that changes such as neckline and skirt fullness can easily be changed with simple alterations. No dress has to stay exactly the same.
