I agree with trying styles you wouldn't have normally tried on...you may be surprised. Stay open minded. Also, try on a veil or some other hair/head accessory with each dress. It'll complete the look and may change your mind about a particular gown. Have fun!

Paradise Bridal is great!! If Cherise is available, ask for her. Also, no pics unless u are buying a dress, so dont be surprised if they dont let you take them. Have fun and dont forget to ask them to turn down the lights when you find that 'wow' gown. It makes you sparkle.

Yeah...a lot of places don't let you take pics...but you can always try to sneak in the dressing room...my MOH was like a camera ninja when we went to look for their BM dresses and we were told no cameras.

Don't worry. We totally didn't care. I'm telling you, my MOH was on a ninja spy mission to take pics and it worked. Do it in the dressing room...as for privacy if they try to come in and help...you'll have your MOH to help. Just don't flash or have a loud clicking camera

The worst that can happen is they say don't take a pic and you can play dumb like you didn't know. No worries!

def try on everything you like! The style of dress you have in your mind may not be the one that flatters your body most, and the one you least expect may be the one!

Have fun and Good Luck girl!!!!
Its So much fun!

I bought my dress from Paradise and they do not let you take pictures.The dressing rooms are not that big either, but we did sneak and take a few pics when the consultant turned away. Oh, they also take the tags off the dresses (except the Maggies for some reason) and they won't tell you who the designer is until you purchase.

I guess they take the tags off the dresses and won't tell you who the designer is so you don't take all that info and look for the dress somewhere else.
