One of the hardest thing for a bride to do is delegate. With so many little task that has to be completed before your big day, having some help can make all the difference in the world.

Pick your bridal party wisely, they are your support system. Your maid/matron of honor should be someone you know you can depend on. Give her the task of making sure all the bridesmaids place their dress orders on time. If making and/or assembling your own favors, invitations or programs, your bridal party can come in handy. Plan a girls night out, with popcorn, movies, music, snacks and favor bags… Assemble! Assemble! Assemble!

These are some of the little things that can be accomplish without totally giving up control.

It is hard enough deciding on your perfect dress, can you imagine finding a dress that will compliment each of your bridesmaids.

Bridesmaid dresses take 8 to 14 weeks for delivery, start browsing early, visit your local bridal shop with a couple of your bridesmaids and have them try on a variety of silhouettes. Having a color motif in mind will help narrow the choices of designers and fabric that will work for you.

Measurement! Measurement! Measurement!
Bridesmaid and bridal dress sizes are not like street clothing. We recommend you have the professional seamstress who will alter your gown take your measurements for you. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO TAKE YOUR OWN MEASUREMENTS – THEY WILL BE WRONG! Always refer to the designer size chart when ordering as designers size charts varies.

It is not unusual to be between sizes, we recommend going with your largest measurement size. It’s easier to cut a dress down than to try to lose that last inch or two.

Remember to have fun planning ladies.
