Things you should keep in mind, before selecting your wedding dress

There are lots to think about when you shop for your wedding dress. As friends look for their own dress, Tajweddingservice, offer advise from our own experience. There are several things that we suggest before you even try a dress on. Here is our advice to you if you’re starting out for the first time:

  1. Understand the different silhouettes, necklines, and price ranges. People will talk “wedding dress talk” to you so it’s easier if you understand what they’re talking about. Wedding Dress Creator lets you play around with dress styles.
  2. Look online a bit to see what strikes your fancy – If you’re motivated, bookmark or print out a couple of dresses to take with you when you go shopping. It’ll help the consultant who is helping you find a dress. Tryweddingchannel.com or brides.com.
  3. Watch wedding shows, like Say Yes to the Dress – set your DVR to watch the new episodes so you can see other brides with your body shape and see what looks good on them.
  4. Check out bridal magazines – look through the bridal magazines at your local bookstore. There’s always articles and ads about what’s the latest fashion.
  5. You should frequently check Wedding Channel’s dress search as it is often found really helpful. you can find a dress that you liked and then the store will carry it for you. In the end, finding the store that carries dress will be quicker than trying to find the dress by going store to store.

Wedding Guest Etiquettes

Withour experience and problems faced [=, Tajweddingservice can provide you with a list of do's and dont's when you go to someones marriage.

There’s a lot of material out there regarding etiquette that the bride and groom should follow, but very little about wedding guest etiquette. If you’ve never been to a wedding before, the whole ordeal can be a bit confusing for the guest as well. Here are a few tips:

1. Reach Venue Spot on time! A lot of guests think “oh it’s a given that I’m going so I don’t need to Reach on time.” It really does help the couple if everyone, including the bridal party, reach late. The couple has a lot of other things to do for the wedding as a whole and chasing you down for your response. Plus, Representatives have deadlines for a reason – venues require final guest counts, placecards need to be made/printed, favors need to be made/ordered, etc

2. Do not ask if you can bring your significant other or a guest to the wedding or rehearsal dinner. If your significant other is invited to anything, the couple will make sure you know. Think about the awkward situation you’re placing the couple in when you ask if you can bring your significant other or a guest. First, you are asking that the couple or their parents or whoever pay for your significant other’s dinner/presence. Second, if the couple decided not to invite your significant other, there’s probably a good reason (e.g., they can’t afford it). As much as the couple should be honored by your attending their wedding, you, as a guest, should be honored that you were asked to attend such an important event in their lives.

3. Leave checks blank. Or just write one of the couple’s names on it. Most people probably don’t realize this, but if you write out a check to both names (or with the wrong last name), some banks won’t deposit the check unless both names are on the account (which may not be true for some couples). Also, you might think that the name you know them by is legally their name, but it might not be. For example, if someone goes by a nickname or the bride doesn’t change her last name (*gasp* yes, it happens). It’s awkward for the couple to go back to those who graciously gave gifts and ask them for a redo.

4. Appreciate the bride and groom. Planning a wedding is no joke. A lot of time, effort, and money go into planning a wedding. Try to show your appreciation, even for the little stuff, that the couple has done to make this day fun and enjoyable for you. Hopefully, the couple appreciates the time, effort, and money it took for you to attend their big day.
