Finding your Perfect Wedding Dress

--Don't hesitate, start early - Finding your perfect wedding dress can take time. Buying off the rack does require less time, but the rule of thumb is to order your dress eight months before the wedding with plenty of time to make tweaks and additions if need be.

--Who should accompany you - Find a few people, like you mom, maid-of-honor, or soon to be mother-in-law, to come with you to find your dress. Too many people will make your decision much harder.

--Frankness is key - Be very straightforward with your consultant. Telling her about your budget and your style desire will make things much faster and easier.

--Be open to new possibilities - When looking for your dress, don't turn down anything that may not be exactly what you want. Try on several gowns of different styles to see what will look the best on your body.

--The little extras - Don't forget about your shoes, headpiece, jewelry, and alterations. These little things will add up, so don't forget the details!
