Whether you’re newly engaged or are taking your first steps in the wedding planning process it’s never too early to learn the ins and outs of wedding dress shopping. While this is often one of the most exciting parts of planning a wedding, we know that it can also be one of the most stressful. From not feeling comfortable in your own skin to hearing others’ opinions about what looks good and what doesn’t, there’s a lot that can ruin the experience.
Weddings are a celebration of your love with those closest to you, and this applies to wedding dress shopping too. While it may seem impossible to have fun if you’re filled with self-doubt, there are ways to surround yourself with self-love and confidence–that’s what wedding dress shopping should be about, after all!

Prep For Success When Wedding Dress Shopping
Before heading to your first appointment, do your hair and makeup in a way that makes you feel confident. If you want to get your hair and makeup professionally done, go for it. What better way to do a wedding day hair and makeup trial than to do so while you’re trying on your dream dress" 
If you love how you feel tan, get a spray tan—a few days before the appointment, of course. Or treat yourself to a manicure and pedicure. The more confident you feel, the more you will love how you feel in the dresses.
