I brought a strapless bra, heels, and I wore little booties shorts so I wasn't so naked. Also, if you have long hair like I do you may want to bring something to tie up your hair. Sometimes it gets in the way of being zipped up and clipped in.

A camera. Some salons allow you to take pictures.

I wore a strapless bra and spanx. I also wore my hair up because that's how I wanted to wear it for the wedding. (I read a tip somewhere that you should have your hair in the style you think you want for the big day.)

Good luck and have fun!

I brought spanx. I had heels but never wore them. Definitely wear your hair up or the way you want to on your wedding day. Mine is long and kept getting in the way. I had wanted to wear it down, but seeing it cover up the back of the dress I know I have to wear it up. When I put it up it also changed the look of the dress too. Good luck!!
