BEFORE YOUR APPOINTMENT
STEP 1: Explore Your Wedding Vision
Think about how you envision your wedding gown and jot down some of your favorite design elements. See our online Style & Fashion Guide for inspiration. TIP: NEW! Now you can add sleeves to any of our strapless gowns. See details on our website or ask your consultant for options to customize your gown.
Silhouette (A-line, sheath, ball gown, etc.): ________________________
Neckline (strapless, halter, sleeves, etc.): ________________________
Embellishment (simple, beading, embroidery): ________________________
Think about your wedding colors. Selecting a color palette will help with your bridal party fashions and make it easier to pull together all the details like invitations, accessories, favors, formalwear, flowers, etc. Your color ideas can be very specific or general color schemes (pastels, brights, neutrals):
____________________________ ____________________________ ____________________________
Do you have a theme in mind? While not a requirement, selecting a theme will help with your planning. You might get inspiration from your wedding location (local flair, town & country, ballroom, historic mansion, seaside, city chic, garden, destination, etc.) or time of year. Another option is to create a general theme that expresses your personal style or the tone you want to create at your event (simply elegant, naturally casual, traditional, trendy).
