How to purchase a fine wedding dress for yourself

Before you start shopping for your perfect wedding dress, take a look in magazines and online to fine styles you like. That way, when you walk into a bridal shop, you will have an idea of what you are looking for. It will also help you avoid trying on 100 dresses.

Keep in mind that some dresses take up to six months to make, and you'll need an extra few weeks for alterations or other issues that could come up once the dress arrives at the bridal shop. So, it's a good idea to order your dress about seven months before your wedding.

When choosing a dress, think about the time of  year you are getting married. If the wedding is going to be outside during the summer months, you won't want to wear a wedding dress with long sleeves that will have you sweating through the entire wedding.
