You may already be thinking about doing a first look with your soon-to-be spouse but have you thought about whether or not youll show your wedding dress to your family and friends ahead of time? Its easy to have a photo of your dress on your phone and show it to your friends who ask to see it, but heres the scoop- our consultants think you should keep it a secret! Why? Find out, below!
Itll keep your grand entrance breathtaking
That moment will truly be unforgettable when everyone gets to see you for the first time. There is something exciting when you add the element of surprise. The fewer people you show your dress to, the more shocked and elated guests will be seeing you walk down the aisle-not to mention your future spouse, too.
Pro tip: keep every photo of your dress in a secret folder on your phone to avoid any accidental mishaps!
Your appointment will feel more intimate
When youre planning to keep your dress a secret, youll probably be shopping with only a few of your nearest and dearest. This means that your appointment will feel more intimate! There is nothing like this once-in-a-lifetime moment and to share wedding dress shopping with a small group of people will make every second one you will cherish.
Too many opinions can hinder your shopping experience
While it may sound like so much fun to bring along a group of people to your appointment, it can make it harder to not only make a decision, but it can hinder your overall shopping experience. Your dress should feel personal to you. You are the one wearing the dress, and while it is helpful to have other opinions, at the end of the day you are the one who is going to be wearing it and seeing it in photos for years to come.
Youll maintain the vision you had in your head
When you shop with a small group and keep your dress a secret to everyone else, you will maintain the vision you had in your head of your wedding day look, and avoid any drama and unwanted opinions. Why open yourself and your dress up to unnecessary comments and critiques? You and your dress should be unveiled to everyone on the day of your wedding when it fits properly and youre put together the way you want to be. Think about how much more special itll feel to be in your perfectly altered wedding dress with your hair and makeup done and wearing any accessories you might have chosen- itll feel that much more worth it to keep your wedding dress a surprise on your wedding day.
