GETTING YOURSELF THE PERFECT WEDDING GOWN

1) Step 1. Do your research.

Spend time scanning all the wedding magazines you can possibly get your hands on. Use the net.

Copy ideas which you like. Also make sure to note down the shops selling the designs, get their address and phone number.

2) Once you do that decide which shops you are actually going to visit.

It's always wiser to stick to shops which are in your neighborhood or are easily accessible.

Before starting off to have a look however pen down how much you want to spend on the dress.

Be practical, remember, special though it is, your wedding dress is only going to be worn once so there isn't really any point in pushing your parents or yourself to the edge of bankruptcy in the process of buying it.

3) While selecting your outfit take into consideration the location and time of the wedding.

If you mean to have an outdoor ceremony long heavy gowns might be a problem since they will get dirty easily.

If the ceremony is indoors during say summer heavy georgette or silk might turn out to feel like a furnace.

4) While trying out gowns be realistic about what looks good on you.

YYou might have loved what Britney wore to her wedding ceremony and could have wanted a wedding dress exactly like hers, but guess what your bums might be just a teeny weenie bit bigger than the Pop star and may therefore not be the perfect sight in a gown like that.

If you are a little on the plump side, face it, there's no shame really, buy yourself a dress which doesn't hug your body like a Scuba Diving suit. If you are stick thin pile on the layers to make yourself look fuller.

5) Make sure to check yourself out from all angles while trying on the gown.

You don't want to your back to look unflattering because that's what the guests are going to look at for the majority of the time.

Finally of course buy a dress you feel comfortable and, of course, beautiful in. Y

Your wedding is your day. So go knock them out girl.

Let's just say that your wedding budget is only $10,000. If you saved just 10% it would give you $1,000 in savings.

But what if you could save 30%?... 50%.... or even 80%?

For example...
Did you know that it cost less than $100 to manufacture a wedding gown that retails for over $2,000?

Did you also know that you can buy the same dress at $200 or less?... It's not impossible. In fact it's very easy. People who followed my advice are doing it all the time.

What's more, you can use the same concept to buy bridesmaid dresses, shoes, headpieces, and other accessories. ANYONE could do this!

Well... what about catering? The single biggest wedding expense. The average dinner for a single guest ranges between $50-$100? What if you could reduce it to $25-$50 for same quality meal? How much money could you save for 100 guests?
