How to buy a wedding dress online: Seven tips for brides to be
A wedding is one of the most beautiful and exciting events in anyone’s life, and the dress a woman wears to be joined to her loved one will be remembered forever. Among the many fashionable bridal designers, one can find perfect wedding dresses at Pollardi, Justin Alexander, Edem, Lucesposa and more, all online.This article offers some ideas on how to choose the right wedding dress for a wedding ceremony via the Internet.
An ideal dress, correctly selected in colour, style, length and taking into account unique aspects of the bride’s figure, as well as current trends, will become an outfit for the queen of the evening and will delight the couple for many years after, even in the form of pleasant memories and photographs. So how to do everything right?
Style
The most important factor is the style of the dress. The Internet will help at this stage – there are many photos of wedding dresses to be found. But when choosing the right style, one should focus on the features of one’s figure. It’s also important to make sure that the style fits into the concept of the celebration. After all, the bride and her dress are traditionally the centre of the day and the theme of the wedding must be reflected accordingly.
It is necessary to take into account the time of the year when the occasion will take place. If the wedding is in summer, the dress should be lightweight and not too tight, but likewise, when the air conditioners are operating, the bride should not freeze. For a cold season wedding, outerwear that matches the dress perfectly might be worth considering.
Length
Just like cut and colour, length can complement the figure. Long dresses visually elongate the silhouette and make the wearer look slimmer. Summer dresses with short shoulder straps, as well as voluminous dresses on the floor, look great with maximum length.
Those with beautiful legs might choose a wedding dress above the knee, and a mid-length dress can hide any areas on the bride’s legs that she might be self-conscious about.
Budget
The cost of wedding dresses varies enormously. In addition, the outfit can be bought, rented or made to order. Each option has its advantages and disadvantages. When buying a dress, the wearer will receive a unique, inimitable outfit that no one else has ever worn. The main disadvantage of this solution is its high cost.
Buying a wedding dress online is one of the most expensive decisions, but it’s possible to get the unique dress of one’s dreams. Among the disadvantages of this solution are the lack of fittings and the difficulty in finding a good salon. There is risk of ending up with a poor quality outfit that does not match the impression online.
Balance of beauty and comfort
All brides want to be beautiful. This is logical and commendable, but in pursuit of an original image, it is important not to overdo it. A wedding dress should be not only beautiful but also necessarily comfortable because throughout the event it will be necessary to walk a lot, dance and have fun. If the outfit is overly extravagant, constraining movement and bringing discomfort, the day may be ruined. Just imagine how uncomfortable it is to sit at a table in an excessively bulky dress and have fun! It is better to prioritise comfort and originality. A balance of creativity and convenience will be the best choice.
But, if one is captivated by a dress that will make a splash, but may not be so practical, it can be a good idea to act wisely and wear it for the ceremony, then change into another, more comfortable, but no less beautiful option for the party.
Service and delivery
Focusing on the fact that we live in an age of technological advancement, and online shopping seems relatively ordinary, it is not all that surprising to order a wedding dress at an online store, especially considering that it’s not only the luxury brands that provide their customers with the opportunity, but also mass markets. At the moment, any bride can easily choose a dress within the stipulated budget, just by having a look on the Internet.
Advantages and disadvantages
Online shopping, of course, has its pros and cons. A plus, of course, is the ability to make purchases at any time convenient for the buyer, regardless of where they are – home, cafe, or work – as well as the chance to compare prices for the same outfit in several online stores.
A significant disadvantage of purchases in this format is that the bride will not be able to use the help of an experienced consultant, for example to properly lace up the dress for the first time. Also, the absence of large mirrors and proper lighting is a factor that makes it difficult to objectively evaluate the outfit.
However, minuses can be avoided if one properly prepares for the order and has a margin of time to allow for emergencies.
