KEEP THE NUMBERS DOWN We wouldn’t turn anyone away, but we advise no more than three people with you, as too many opinions can be unhelpful and stressful. Choose someone to be honest and not just tell you what you want to hear! THINK ABOUT UNDERWEAR It’s best to go for neutral underwear as dark colours can sometime show through, and not too much lace, as it can catch and make it hard to get in and out of the dresses. COME WITH IDEAS Our appointments are an hour and a half, and there are a lot of dresses, so it can help if you’ve had a look online in advance to get an idea of what you do and don’t like – although many brides end up with something different to what they expected! DON’T WORRY ABOUT SHOES All dresses are a standard size, so you don’t need to worry about shoes until the seamstress appointment, which is 6 to 8 weeks before the wedding – at that point, you’ll need to know what
