🤍 When should you buy your wedding dress?

Ideally, 8-10 months before your wedding! Here's the breakdown:

Purchase the dress 9 months ahead.
During the wait, buy your accessories (veil, jewelry, shoes).
The dress arrives after 8-12 weeks.
Schedule your first fitting about 2 weeks after arrival.
Allow 4-8 weeks for alterations.
Try her on 4-6 weeks before the wedding.
Final fitting happens 2 weeks before, ensuring a perfect fit.
Once she fits like a glove, take it home and keep her safe! 🥂
