You’ve done it, honey. You’ve gotten the Prince in the Golden Castle, the Knight in Shining Armour. Now that you’ve got the man, you need the dress. Besides the wedding ring itself, the dress is probably the most important aspect of the wedding… most assuredly the most taxing to acquire. There are a few things you absolutely must consider when in the market for the perfect wedding dress.

Budget: Your most expensive endeavour since college, having a tight budget will help you a) keep down costs and b) know what kind of dress to expect. Considering this is the day that you’ve been waiting for since kindergarten, don’t hinder yourself. However, reining it in may be beneficial –what with cakes, decorations, and shoes. Also, keep your range of motion –that is, the amount you’re willing to negotiate– to a healthy 5% in case you find the perfect dress but it’s just out of your reach.

Design: You want to know as close as possible what you want in a dress. Though seemingly obvious, going into a bridal shop you’ll be surrounded by salespeople all wanting a bit of your cash. Make sure whatever your choice it’s tasteful, elegant, and fits you perfectly.

Wearability: Because you’ll only be wearing this dress once (hopefully), you want to make sure you can get the most out of it on your wedding day as possible. Go for a dress that’s as much function as it is fabulous. If you can wear it to and from the church and during the reception, you’ve just found yourself the perfect dress that will pay for itself a lifetime over.

With all these considerations in mind, you’re ready to get your gown. Make it cost-worthy, gorgeous, and work it!
