Choosing a wedding dress is an important decision in the wedding planning process. Your wedding dress will be a reflection of your personal style and will be remembered in photos and memories. With so many options available, we know it can be overwhelming to figure out which dress is the right one for you. Here are some tips to help you choose the perfect wedding dress:

  1. Set a budget: Determine how much you are willing to spend on a wedding dress before you start shopping. This will help narrow down your options and prevent you from falling in love with a dress that is out of your price range.

  2. Consider the venue: The location of your wedding will influence the style of dress that is appropriate. A beach wedding may call for a more casual, bohemian-inspired dress, while a formal church wedding will require a more traditional, formal gown.

  3. Think about your personal style: Your wedding dress should reflect your personal style and taste. Consider the dresses you typically wear and what makes you feel most comfortable and confident.

  4. Try on different styles: Don't be afraid to try on different styles and silhouettes. You may be surprised by which dresses look best on your body type. It's important to keep an open mind and try on a variety of styles to see what looks best on you.

  5. Get the right fit: The fit of your dress is crucial. Make sure to get proper measurements and try on dresses in your size. Alterations can always be made to ensure the perfect fit, but it's best to start with a dress that is close to your size.

  6. Consider your undergarments: Your undergarments can significantly impact the look of your dress. Be sure to bring the right bra and undergarments to your dress fittings to ensure the best fit and appearance.

  7. Bring trusted friends or family: It can be helpful to bring a few trusted friends or family members with you to your dress fittings. They can offer honest opinions and help you make a decision. Just be sure to bring people whose opinions you value and who will be supportive, rather than those who may try to sway you in a certain direction.

  8. Trust your gut: Ultimately, the most important thing is that you feel confident and beautiful in your wedding dress. If a dress makes you feel amazing, it's probably the one for you. Trust your instincts and go with the dress that you feel the most comfortable and confident in.

  9. Don't wait too long to order: It's important to order your dress with enough time for alterations and any necessary shipping. Most dresses take several months to arrive, so be sure to order your dress well in advance of the big day.

  10. Accessorize: Your wedding dress is just the beginning. The right accessories can take your look to the next level. Consider adding a veil, tiara, earrings, and shoes to complete your bridal ensemble.

My husband and I were above and beyond satisfied with our photos from our session with Leyah! We’re from out of town & decided to visit Bok Towers & take photos there. I found Leyah’s information online & contacted her the night before in hopes she’d be available & she was!
We absolutely love our photos! And our experience with her. She’s very professional & knowledgable about the best positions to pose which was super helpful! 😁
I would definitely recommend her services!!
