Not sure where to buy your gown and accessories? Having a hard time choosing the best bridal shop in town? Here are some tips for what to look for in a bridal boutique.

Choosing the right bridal boutique for your big day can be a challenge, no matter how fun it is to shop for your special day’s gown and accessories. You’ll be visiting the shop you choose many times during your wedding planning process, so it’s important to choose a store you like and one you feel comfortable visiting. From your initial gown selection to your fitting appointments, the bridal boutique, if chosen well, will be your one-stop shop for all of your bridal attire needs.

Here are some things to look for in a good bridal boutique:

Attentive staff—No matter what shop you visit or how much money you spend there, the staff will not always be able to shower you with love and compliments. However, you should expect a realistic level of attentiveness when deciding on a bridal boutique. The staff should be able to answer all of your questions, or direct you to someone who can, and shouldn’t make you feel rushed or pressured into anything.

Style that suits your personality—While most bridal shops will carry an array of gown styles, some of them cater to very specific tastes. If you’re after something very modern and trendy, it’s probably not worth the time or trip to visit the vintage-style shop up the road. Before you spend the time and gas money to visit each shop on your list, call around and ask about the styles of gowns each store carries, and don’t forget to visit their websites. Many bridal shops list the designers they carry on their sites and some even have full-blown photo galleries to check out.

Accessory selection—Some bridal shops carry more accessory options than others. If you want to make assembling your outfit more convenient, look for a shop that offers everything from shoes and tiaras to jewelry and veils. This is an important part of choosing the right bridal boutique if you want to avoid any extra hassle.
