Wedding Dresses I DIDN'T Pick - Part 1

Hello there! For those who don't know my I got married in May 2024 💞 With my wedding recently passed I have so much to say about the wedding planning process. My favorite wedding find was my bridal gown. I got it from Kleinfeld Bridal in downtown Manhattan NYC 📍I got a full free bridal appointment and was attended to by one of the cast members of their show "Say yes to the dress" and she brought me many styles to try on. These were 3 I didn't go with, like for part 2! ❤️

... Read morePlanning your wedding dress selection can be an overwhelming yet exciting experience. When shopping, consider your personal style and comfort. Research various bridal gown styles such as A-line, ball gown, and sheath to find what resonates with you. Visiting a renowned bridal boutique like Kleinfeld can provide unique insights and access to a range of designer dresses. Often, the help of a professional stylist can guide you through trying different silhouettes and embellishments that suit your body type. Many brides find it useful to create a mood board, gathering inspiration from magazines and social media platforms like Instagram and Pinterest, which can clarify your vision. The dresses you choose against may hold special meaning, leading to easier decision-making. Keep in mind, each wedding gown carries its own charm, from classic lace to modern minimalist designs. In part 2 of this series, I’ll delve into more styles that I didn't choose and the reasons behind these choices, helping brides-to-be navigate their gown selection process effortlessly.

If you are a bride looking for her dress, have so much fun! This is an exciting time in life. Tips to go into shopping with: - Be open to all styles. - Go with your gut and not what family tells you. If you don’t like a dress don’t get it. - Take lots of photos! - Bring people that you know

I said yes to the dress at @lotusbridal 🤍 Featuring some of the dresses I didn’t pick, some I hated on me, and some were a close second. Slide 10 is insane because I ALWAYS envisioned my dress having sleeves….nevermind. 🥲
