Factors to Consider Before Buying Your Wedding Dress
There are many factors to consider before buying your wedding dress. Anticipating finding the perfect dress can bring on a lot of anxiety and stress for brides to be. You can expect it to feel like this, but it doesn’t need to be. Truth is, if you stay organised ad do a little research, you will have no problems finding the perfect gown for you.
In this post we’ve listed 5 factors to have you prepared for wedding dress shopping…
Your Budget
Before any wedding shopping starts, newly engaged couples should sit down together to create a budget list of all aspects of their wedding – bridal gown included.
This is such an important part of the wedding planning process as it ensures you get to create the wedding of your dreams without causing issues due to overspending along the way.

When and Where
Consider your wedding location, time of year, venue and whether it will be held indoors or outdoors.

Trunk Show Sales
Trunk shows are an event held in bridal stores. They are travelling style capsules with every gown from that season! A trunk show gives stores and brides the opportunity to view every style within a collection, including gowns that may not have been on your radar or been ordered as a sample in your store.
Keep an eye out for our future trunk show posts to see when one is near you! You can see our schedule via Instagram and our socials, PLUS we offer boutiques 10% off every order from a show!
Our trunk shows are available to travel around AUS, the EU, USA, CAN, NZ & ASIA!

Your Wedding Theme
Having a wedding theme gives you somewhere to start. While it’s not completely necessary, it does give a more direct vision to wedding planning, helping with decisions such as colour schemes, decor and locations.
After considering a wedding theme, you may want to find a dress that suits.

Find Inspo but Stay Open Minded
Do some searching online for styles that are trending, but try not to decide on a dress before going to try it on. When it comes time to go to bridal boutiques to find your dream gown, we’ve had so many brides tell us how much they wish they had been more open minded to the styles they had not picked prior to trying on.
We suggest creating a mood board on Pinterest of styles and designs you like. You can also follow our Pinterest page Cizzy Bridal Australia to see our designs!
