When it comes to finding your wedding dress, there are endless opinions... what's trendy, what's timeless, what others think you should wear on YOUR wedding day... But when you put on the right dress, none of that matters. You don't need to feel like someone else, and you don't need to live up to anyone else's expectations. (Even if they mean well.) Your wedding dress should reflect you, your energy, your smile, and that wonderful feeling of knowing these are the very dresses you want to wear. :)
1. YOUR WEDDING DRESS DOESN'T HAVE TO BE TRENDY
Trends change every season, but your personal style doesn't have to. It doesn't matter which silhouettes, fabrics or embellishments are currently popular. What matters is that you love your dress and feel completely comfortable and natural wearing it.
2. IT DOESN'T HAVE TO IMPRESS EVERYONE OR PLEASE EVERYONE
Choosing a wedding dress often brings together different opinions and expectations. What your mother, friend or sister loves might not be what you're looking for. And that's perfectly fine. You don't have to justify your choice to anyone.
3. IT DOESN'T HAVE TO LOOK LIKE IT DOES ON MODELS
Every woman has a different body shape, proportions and a unique way of wearing a dress. Photographs can be a beautiful source of inspiration, but they shouldn't define how you need to look in your wedding dress. Your wedding dress should fit you, not the other way around.
The only thing it truly needs to be... is absolutely, completely, unmistakably... YOU.
You don't have to become someone else on your wedding day. You can stay true to your personal style, your personality and what makes you feel comfortable. Because the right wedding dress isn't just about how you look in it, but above all, how you feel wearing it.
