On your wedding day, all eyes are on you. Everything must be perfect. Your hair, makeup, and especially your dress must be stunning for those memorable wedding photos. With so many details to handle, it’s normal to feel stress on your wedding day. However, there are a few ways to feel more confident, so you can relax, have a stress-free wedding day and celebrate with your guests.
Self-Care is Essential
In the months leading up to the wedding, there are hundreds of details to plan. It’s essential to get enough sleep and eat a nutritious diet. Some brides decide they want to lose some weight before the wedding. If the alterations on your dress are complete, this isn’t the best time to go on a diet. Your dress has been altered to fit your current size, and you don’t want any last-minute adjustments that may change how well the dress fits. As the wedding day gets closer, take time out for a special date night with your future spouse or plan a spa day with your bridesmaids. Getting your mind off the wedding for a few hours is rejuvenating, and you’ll be able to focus on the last-minute details without feeling like you want to head for the hills.
Remember it’s Your Wedding
When you start to feel the stress or get overwhelmed, take a deep breath and remember why you’re going through all the planning. The two of you are about to start a life journey and celebrate with your families and friends. When you consider the significance of the day and what it means to your family and friends, the feelings of insecurity will soon go away.
Wear Shapewear
When you walk down the aisle, everyone is going to notice your dress, your jewelry, and your accessories. What you wear under your dress enhances your best features and smooths out the lines in your dress. Wedding shapewear is more popular than ever before. More wedding dresses today are cut low or reveal quite a bit of skin. If the dress you choose is more revealing than some more conventional wedding dresses, traditional shapewear may not be your best option. Your wedding stylist can recommend lingerie and discreet shapewear retailers that may have exactly what you need.
Buy the Dress For Your Body Type
If you decide your current body isn’t exactly what you want on your wedding day, give yourself plenty of time to lose those few pounds before you buy your wedding dress. The last thing you need is the stress of trying to fit into a dress you bought six months ago. Choosing a dress for the body you want, not the one you have, isn’t the best option. Discuss your preferences with your wedding stylist and choose a dress that flatters your shape and makes you feel elegant.
It Must Be a Perfect Fit
Wedding dresses may be classic and simple or elaborate with intricate detailing. The alterations should be done by a bridal industry specialist who understands how to work with delicate fabrics.
