Custom made wedding dress: Get the wedding dress of your dreams

Have you ever considered designing your wedding dress? There are many reasons to love custom made wedding dresses. A custom-made wedding dress will fit your body perfectly and no one else will have the same dress.

Discerning brides have an idea of what they want in a wedding dress, but the perfect picture in your head can mean disappointment and frustration when you start shopping.

If you have a very specific vision and have not been able to find a solution in a wedding dress boutique, a custom-made wedding dress could be just what you need.

Creating a custom made wedding dress with a designer is truly a one of a kind experience! And being a part of the process ensures that your wedding dress will be even more special to you on your big day.

Finding the right wedding dress is a critical part of the wedding planning process and it can add stress if you are unable to find what you want. But sometimes, there is so much to look for in a wedding dress—fit, comfort, movement, fabric, color, and overall style. If a wedding dress does not tick all of those boxes, it can be hard to fall in love with it. With custom made wedding dresses, these ‘must-haves’ can become a reality.

You may have some questions before you jump in to making your custom made wedding dress (insert FAQ’s link). Here is some key information about the process and some reasons why you should consider a custom wedding dress for your wedding!

The process

When you prepare for your bridal consultation, keep track of all of your ideas and your style preferences.

Come prepared to answer pertinent questions like what do I want in a wedding dress? What kind of sleeves do I want? What is mu budget? What fabric would I like my wedding dress in? What style is my favorite? Do I like showing cleavage? Am I looking for a modest wedding dress? Be sure to allow yourself time to brainstorm. Browse through Pinterest to get inspiration, make sure to save pictures and examples of your favorite styles and bring them to meet your design designer.

Finding the fit

A good bridal designer knows how to accentuate your distinctive figure. They also consider this when customizing your wedding dress so it will fit you perfectly. A custom made wedding dress means that you are not purchasing a dress off the rack and forcing it to work for you; instead, the bridal designer creates a dress to suit your body. A fashionable wedding dress doesn’t mean it has to be uncomfortable. Your custom made wedding dress will be comfortable throughout the day. There will be no adjusting of straps or taking in or letting out on your wedding day. Your dress will be comfortable from photos to dancing to saying goodnight.

The perfect style

When you sit down to begin your custom made process, you are putting your style on paper. Your bridal designer will translate any dream you had—whether inspired by something you saw in a magazine, on Pinterest, or just a vision that you have in your mind.

Your bridal designer will take your ideas and create a wedding dress that matches your taste and ideas. They will ask you about your desired wedding dress: whether you want a mermaid fit, silky fabric, open back, short sleeves, a longer train, deeper neckline, or a unique length. You will be in charge of the creative process. The bridal designer will create your sketch, present you with preferred fabrics, and arrange for fittings so that your wedding dress fits just right!

Individual preference

You are a unique individual, and your wedding dress should be every bit as unique. Your style and silhouette will influence your vision for your perfect wedding dress. Your bridal designer will give you hints for fabrics that will work best with the wedding dress style you are proposing. It is essential to listen to these hints and tricks because bridal designers have created wedding dresses many times and they recognize what looks best on different body types. Your bridal designer will help you determine what your dress should look like to make you a real stand out.

Custom made wedding dresses are a fabulous way to express your individuality and personality but it is important to keep an open mind during the design process. Your bridal designer may have suggestions that get you even closer to your dream wedding dress.
