Although you may only wear it once, it is an investment; even if you\u2019re not a \u201cdressy\u201d person. If you are about to make the step to wedding dress, you need to ask yourself these questions!<\/p>\n<h2>Can I move in it?<\/h2>\n<p>This is a big one: your comfort is an integral part of the day. Can you move around in it? This is one of the most important aspects of luxury is comfort. You may have a gorgeous couture gown, but if you can\u2019t dance in it, it won\u2019t be worth it!<\/p>\n<h2>Does it Flatter my Shape?<\/h2>\n<p>Another question you need ask is if it flatters your body shape. Hourglass, pear, rectangle, apple are all common shapes and sizes and usually a bridal boutique shop assistant will know what works on you even before you do! This is why it\u2019s important to try something on before making a definite decision.<\/p>\n<h2>Do I feel like \u201cme\u201d in it?<\/h2>\n<p>Once you do try on your dress, whether or not you would have chosen it for yourself is irrelevant. Now it is time to ask the all important question; \u201cis it me?\u201d Would this be something you would wear? Is it your style? Do you feel like you but a fancier version? If so, then you may be on to a winner!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Buying a wedding dress is a big commitment.
