Going Dress Shopping Tonight

- bring a strapless bra

- wear full coverage underwear

- bring water with you

- eat before you go (trying on dresses can tire you out!)

- definitely be open to all styles (you'll never know how something will look on you until you try it on).

- Don't go with an entourage - seriously, it gets very annoying and confusing when you have like 5 different opinions flying at you and you can even focus on what you like or dont like about the dress. Try an limit it to at most 2 people you bring with you until you are sure you found the dress and then you can bring the other people to see it.

- don't let the salewoman pressure you into buying anything that day. If you feel you may have found the dress, i suggest going shopping a few more times before you completely committ (just to be sure it really is THE one).

- bring a few pictures of styles that have caught your attention and see if they have the actual dress in the store or something like it.

- bring a camera (just in case they let you take pictures). It helps to look at them later on when you are out of the store and by yourself to see what you look like in the dress.

thanks ladies. i'm going with my mom and sister. i am going to bring a bunch of pictures of dresses i like, but i'll let them put me in things that i wouldn't necessarily pick for myself.

any suggestions on what to wear?

---

i wore a regular bra and reg underwear... wear whatever you will be comfortable in.

---

i was debating between my granny panties and eidble undies. both are pretty comfy, so i'm not sure which direction to go. any tips?

---

How about edible granny panties??? Best of both worlds!!

---

ahhh! so wise. the decision has been made. edible granny panties it is.

---

If you are feeling really crazy, maybe even do the smarties bra....just throwing it out there!

---

i don't want it to take away from the dress though

---

Well of course you'd eat the straps on your way there so itd be strapless!!

---

omg you know I'm the pic ho...so if you're wearing this smarties bra..there better be smarties bra pics!

Village Bridal
Davids Bridal
MeMe Bridal Boutique (but that's in Larchmont)

i'm going to paradise, so i guess no pics tonight! i wonder if my sis can sneak some on her phone...

OMG edible granny panties and a candy bra!! This is why I love you girls!!!!

I wore a regular bra and underwear when I found my dress because that's what I'm most comfortable in. I personally wouldn't wear spanx or anything like that because you're going to be trying on A LOT of dresses and you are going to get hot! Lol My best advice would be to try on everything, listen to your sales girl and don't get discouraged if you don't fine the ONE right away. You'll know when you found it!! Good luck and let us know how it goes

I'd do the same thing and fix it hahahha.

Paradise is great, but they def wont let you take pics. BUT they also wont go in the room with you to help you put your dress on which is great so wear whatever underwear you want. Or none if you so choose!

I haven't gone yet so I don't have any advice...but I just wanted to say to have so much fun!!!! Enjoy the moment that all of us have been dreaming about since we were little girls!!!!!!!!!!!

this is exactly what I did when we went with FSIL. They told me I couldn't take pic and I had my big paparrazzi camera with me... so I turned the camera on, took the flash off, and put it inside my bag facing FSIL and was pressing the shitter buttong trhough my bag.... turns out it was the dress she picked and I was able to take real pics after, but the ones I got from sneaking were pretty funny LOL
