Top tips by Tatiana Porembova | https://tatianaporembova.co.uk ❤ Do your homework before your bridal consultation so you have a better idea of what you’re looking for. ❤ Be open minded. It’s always a good idea to try something unexpected, if only to confirm it’s not for you. ❤ Bridal sizing doesn’t reflect highstreet size charts so don’t be put off by the size of the gowns you’ll be trying. ❤ Give yourself enough time. Most dresses are made to order and need a longer lead time. ❤ Be realistic with your budget and find out what’s included in the price. ❤ Let your boutique advise you. Having worked in the wedding industry for many years, we have a wealth of knowledge which we're only too happy to share. www.pippavolansphotography.co.uk 55 DRESSING THE BRIDAL PARTY
