Hello, Future Brides! It appears You're looking to book a wedding dress appointment! Here at Fantasy Bridal, we offer two main types of bridal appointments: Regular Appointments and Private Appointments.

 

Excellent! It seems we're all set to begin. If this is your inaugural bridal shopping venture, here are some essentials we recommend bringing along:

 

1. Inspiration:
It's immensely helpful to compile a Pinterest board or gather screenshots/photos of dresses that catch your eye. This provides our consultants with valuable insight into your preferred style and wedding dress vision. If you're still undecided on your ideal wedding dress style, fret not! Sharing details about your wedding theme or personal fashion preferences can guide our consultants effectively.

 

2. Proper Undergarments:
While not mandatory, wearing well-fitted shape-wear can enhance your comfort and confidence during your appointment. As each dress varies in construction and detailing, specific undergarments may not be necessary at all. Our ultimate goal is for you to feel your best while selecting your dream wedding dress. We recommend opting for nude undergarments and feel free to bring shape-wear if you prefer. When in your bridal appointment, discuss with your bridal consultant whether the dress you say yes to may or may not need specific undergarments. 

 

3. Hair Ties and Clips:
With frequent dress changes during your appointment, keeping your hair secured away from zippers and buttons is crucial. This ensures a seamless and distraction-free experience, allowing you to focus on finding your perfect gown. Additionally, styling your hair up during the appointment offers a glimpse into your potential wedding day look if that's the route you are debating on. Forgot your hair accessories? Don't worry – we've got you covered with complimentary hair ties.

 

4. Appropriate Footwear:
Our appointments typically last 90 minutes, involving frequent changes and standing. Opt for comfortable shoes that are easy to slip on and off. We kindly request refraining from wearing shoes while trying on dresses to prevent any accidental damage. Since most dresses require alterations, avoiding footwear minimizes the risk of snagging or tearing delicate fabrics.

 

5. The Squad:
Your entourage plays a significant role in making this experience memorable. While we encourage bringing along close family members or friends, we recommend limiting your group to 2-3 individuals. Their support and feedback will aid you in saying "yes" to the dress, ensuring you feel empowered and confident throughout. Keep in mind the more guests you bring, the more opinions which can make it difficult to make a decision. 

 

6. Setting Your Budget:
Wedding dresses vary in price, and it's essential to establish a budget beforehand. While our dresses have set price points, additional costs such as taxes and alterations should be considered. Communicating your budget to our consultants enables us to curate options within your financial parameters. Remember to account for accessories like jewelry, veils, and other embellishments in your budget planning and let your bridal consultant know accordingly.

 

We're thrilled to embark on this journey with you and assist you in finding the gown of your dreams. Should you have any further questions or concerns, feel free to reach out. See you soon at Fantasy Bridal!
