When planning a wedding, there are so many things that need to be taken care of. Among the things to be bought or hired include wedding accessories such as, bridal veils, wedding bouquet, bridal shoes and many more. Of all these things wedding dresses are of key importance. In order to have a successful wedding you need to take the following considerations when deciding on buying or hiring brides maid dresses, mother of the bride dresses and plus size wedding dresses.

Bridesmaids can be of great help when planning a wedding. For this reason, you need to do everything possible to make them enjoy the big day and offer maximum help. It is normally the privilege of the bride to select the color and type of fabric for the maids’ dresses so that it compliments with the brides gown. However, consideration should be taken on the maids’ fashion, style, personalities, figure types, skin tones and their budgets. When deciding on the type of dresses to get for them, let them have a say in the final decision. Invite the girls to come with you for shopping and allow them to pick their own dresses in a certain color. If you already have options you have pre selected, allow them pick out their favorites.

When deciding on wedding dresses for the big day, go for tailored dresses as opposed to the off rack dresses. If you are hiring dresses, avoid having to deal with incorrect dress sizes, which involves either having to wait sometimes weeks for new ones to come in, or paying for alterations. Always try on each dress prior to ordering, to ensure that you have selected the correct sizes for all the bridesmaid figures as sizes often vary between styles and manufacturers.

Wedding fashion styles continuously change and manufacturers constantly update their designs. It’s therefore recommended that you order your dresses as soon as you have decided on the color and design to avoid the style or color being discontinued or no longer available the next time you visit the store. It’s also advisable to order all your dresses at the same time. Fabric dye-lots can vary and if you order the dresses at different times, the dresses may be from different dye-lots and may not all have the exact same color intensity.

Prior to leaving the store, check the dresses to ensure they are they are all the same color. Since different manufacturers having different lead times, you will also want to leave enough time for alterations if required. Allow at least 3 weeks prior to the wedding. Leave enough time for a second and possibly third fitting in case the dress still does not fit quite right. Many bridesmaids wait until less than a week before the wedding to pick up their dress only to find out it doesn't fit well and there’s not enough time to have it altered or sent back.
