Saving More Money For Your Wedding!Wedding Gowns Selection
I’m not going to describe how beautiful the gowns are. I think you can see for yourself.
Perhaps you may have different opinion.
Anyway, this post is about the gown selection process.
I remembered a female friend of mine told us that her boyfriend specifically mentioned to her NOT TO ask him along during gown selection.
Why?
Because it is a lengthy process.
Last year around this time, my wife went for her first selection phase.
Normally there are two phases.
The second one will be the trying of the altered pieces.
My wife took two days to find the gowns she really loved.
For the first time, it started at 6pm and ended at about 10pm.
She didn’t really see one that she really like.
On the second day, she went back to the Bridal Studio and stayed from 2pm till 8pm.
I was with her on two days after working hours.
For the ladies, the gown selection is a tedious process.

As much as they wanted to look perfect, at the same time, they may be seeking approval from others especially her husband-to-be.
In fact, the fiance being physically with the bride-to-be serves as an emotional support and reassurance for her.
Though the process be a long waiting time, it is still worth the wait because it is the process the couple is going through together.
5 Tips for the ladies during gown selection:
1. Bring the guys along
2. Bring an experienced female friend who may have been through this process perhaps with other friends of hers (so that she can tell you what to look out for.)
3. Cut out or print out pictures of models in wedding gowns from newspaper, magazines or the Internet
4. Bring these pictures along so that you can show to the staff at the Bridal Studio
5. MUST have a “WOW” factor when you FIRST see yourself in the mirror with that gown.
Here are some gowns I saw from the Internet.

I really like the first picture. But I dont think I’d wear a corset looking top like that. Would prefer that my arms be covered. The third picture looks nice and simple, not sure if that looks like a real bridal outfit. The rest are lovely too, but personally for me, I’m not so fond of poofy skirts.
Wow, I havent really thought about my future wedding dress. This post opened up my eyes … hehehe

April 28th, 2007 at 9:43 pmI like the 2nd and 4th pieces (veri princessy hehe). 1st one is not bad but the slinky design doesn suit me. nice gowns though JR 🙂
April 30th, 2007 at 10:24 amHi Jhong Ren,
1st, 2nd, 4th and 6th gowns are nice. i love 2nd and 4th gowns. i had selected my WG and EG 2 days ago on sat. i agreed that it was indeed tedious to select my gowns. due to some problem, yesterday i realised that i have to change my WG . 🙁 There were also positive and negative feedbacks from my friends and mum, sis on my EG. some don’t like while some said too exaggerated and will have difficulty when photo taking during dinner. But I think I will stick to my EG which is my hubby 1st choice. Looks like I will have to make another trip to the bs to see if there are any other suitable WG. if not, will select my 2nd choice WG (which is my hubby’s 1st choice WG) or MTM my WG.
April 30th, 2007 at 3:00 pmHi Val, in fact i like the 4th one too….
oh dear, heard u mentioned u need to change your wedding gown?…
yup, it is a good choice that u stick to what u think is right! 🙂
hope u will find one that u love! 🙂
April 30th, 2007 at 8:33 pmhaha…u got the name wrong. i’m the one who mentioned that i have to change my wedding gown. i had decided to wear the wedding gown which is my hubby’s 1st choice after i make another trip down to my bs tonight. though it is simple, the gown looks very beautiful with the machined embroidery. now, i start to love it though i didn’t really find it fantanstic when i tried on 2 days ago. =) finally, my gowns are settled and i don’t have to MTM.
April 30th, 2007 at 11:28 pmsorry…there are a few vivians and valeries…ah….
May 2nd, 2007 at 9:02 pmsounds good to me u made ur choice….no regrets 🙂
This is for Jhong Ren. Did you post the pic of that beautiful strapless dress from wedlog.org? I’ve been on the site & can’t find it. I want it, I need to know who makes it. If anyone can help me, I’d appreciate it. Thanks.
September 21st, 2007 at 9:22 pmHi Cindy,
You may want to print out the picture and show to your bridal studio.
The picture is in one of the many posts on wedlog.org and it will be easier if you can get help from the bridal studio you have signed up with….
hope this is helpful. 🙂
