How many times have you wished that a wedding dress had that one extra feature that would make it your dream dress? How many times have you thought that you will never find the wedding dress that is exactly what you envisioned? How many times have you wished your wedding dress had half the features in one, and half of another to be the dress you always wanted?
Many brides share this tale of woe. As pretty and attractive as designer wedding dresses can be, they need not always have all the features a bride wants. Many brides settle for the best of the lot, Whether because of budget constraints, unavailable sizes or lack of attractive choices.
If you are a bride who dreads going through thousands of wedding dress pictures or aren’t excited about trying on dozens until you find the right one, customizing your dress may be the way to go. Did we just hear you say “Impossible?”
Having a wedding dress custom-made isn’t as difficult as it seems. All it takes is finding the right people for the job. Let me tell you how you can make this possible.
Decide on what features you want
The first step to having your dress custom-made is deciding its features. What is it that you’ve been searching for and have been unable to find in the available dresses? Create a list of factors that you are particular about, and what other features would be good to have. If you have seen them in other wedding dresses, get their pictures to show to your dressmaker.
