Shopping for the perfect dress to say yes to can be super stressful! While most of the time it’s easier to go into it with an open mind when it comes to style and fit, it is good to go in knowing what season you’re getting married in to pick out the overall look of the dress!

When getting married in the winter, a statement piece on your dress could be sleeves! They’re such a beautiful addition to an already stunning dress, and not to mention they’ll keep you warm.

Even if you’re not getting married in the winter, we’re still obsessed with sleeves! Lace ones like these are perfect if you’re getting married during the warmer months, but add a flair of style to your dress!

One word - lace. No matter the time of year, lace will always be beautiful for a wedding dress. We do tend to see more lace in the summer/ spring instead of the winter, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t beautiful lace dresses that would be perfect for your winter wedding!

Let’s talk about big ballroom gowns. Perfect. Stunning. Always in trend. Can’t say enough good things about them. Guaranteed to make you feel like a princess on your big day! (and photograph really well).

Now let’s talk about the opposite of ballroom gowns- form fitting dresses. They’ll show off your figure, and are so classy and stunning. Again, no matter what season or design style your wedding has, these dresses will be the perfect addition to your big day!
One of the biggest things to remember when wedding dress shopping is to find one that you feel like yourself in, and feel 100% confident in from ALL angles. I can’t think of anything worse than feeling uncomfortable and unconfident on your wedding day from a dress that doesn’t highlight you!
