Wedding Dress Shopping

Wedding dress shopping can take a lot of brides by surprise because you should probably start shopping for one nine months in advance! It can take around six months for your dress to arrive with two months allocated for the alteration process. Normally you should have a perfectly fitted wedding dress within three fittings.

So who should you bring dress shopping? I recommend bringing 2-3 people. Any more, and there are too many opinions. Bring someone who has a similar style to you so that they can better support you in your decisions.

To finish off, let's talk a bit about cost. The average cost of a wedding dress in Canada is $1850. If your budget is around there, I would recommend looking at Truvelle dresses however if your budget is lower I’d recommend BHLDN. BHLDN is a bridal company made by Anthropology and their dresses average around $900.
