When you walk down the aisle you want all eyes on you.  How do you do that?  By waltzing down the aisle with a drop dead gorgeous dress.  You don't want people to just say "She looks nice or "Oh, that dress looks good on her"  You want people to be "WOWED",  to be "ASTONISHED", to be "MESMORIZED"

There are so many types and styles of dresses: A-Line, Mermaid or Empire to name a few.  You have to find out which one is best for you and your body type. You want a dress that is going to complement you.  A dress that looks good on one girl may not look good on another. 

Once you figure out your body style you will then be able to decide on a style of dress that will define your figure.

A little rule of thumb:  Pear shaped figures are enhanced by A-Line dresses to take away the wider hips. Hourglass figures are enhanced by two piece or corsets.  Both of these type of dresses will draw attention to the waist.  Taller figures have an advantage because they are able to wear just about any type of dress but the empire waist dresses.  Since they are taller the empire waist dresses tend not to fall on them correctly and will look like maternity dresses.

The best piece of advice is to try on what you like.  If you like strapless dress but you have been told that it won't look good on you. "TRY IT ON AND SEE"  You might be surprised.  It may look good on you.

Next week we will be picking out Florist

Happy Planning,
