We all know that the bride is the center of attention but sometimes she just has to make a statement as she's coming down the aisle! Sometimes the dress is very opulent and luxurious, very short, very sexy and revealing, or even very colorful. I’m a big fan of “Say Yes to the Dress” and also a big advocate of being you. Often times people choose dresses, among other things, for their wedding because it’s what someone else wants, but too many opinions can overshadow your own. It’s ok to be true to who you are.
You know you better than anyone else and there’s nothing saying you can’t add your personality into your dress too. Adding too many opinions into your wedding day decision making process can take away your personality and add theirs. Just because mom, or someone else, is paying for the dress, doesn’t mean that her opinion is the only one that matters, so remember that when you’re going dress shopping. Value mom’s opinion and consider it but remember it’s your day.
I just love it when the bride comes down the aisle with something on that’s totally unexpected but still so very elegant!
