Tip of the Day: Having trouble finding your dream wedding gown? Don't get frustrated—first, make sure you're not committing one of these 10 common dress-shopping mistakes. Choose a reputable retailer and find a bridal consultant that you feel comfortable with (ask other brides and your wedding vendors for recommendations). Instead of shopping with an entourage, bring only a few loved ones who you trust won't persuade you into buying a dress you're not entirely happy with. Lastly, be open to trying on styles and silhouettes that you may have never considered before, since that so-so gown on the hanger could actually look amazing on your figure. Don't feel pressured to buy something at your first appointment or cry tears of joy when you do eventually find The One; every bride's experience is unique!
Plus, browse hundreds of gorgeous styles in our Wedding Gown Gallery.
