It is a special day in a woman's life when she get's married, and she is right to spend time searching for perfection.

 Getting married is extremely stressful with a mountain of things to have to do and organize, however, a future bride must plan carefully so as to make the choosing of her bridal gown an enjoyable experience.

 You must allow ample time before the big day, at least six months. There is a plethora of styles and designs to choose from and rushing is not an option. You may want to have a bridal gown made especially for you, this in itself can take up to six months and then there may be alterations to attend to.

 Make a collage from images cut from bridal publications and printed from the Internet. Take as many pictures as you can to bridal gown suppliers so as give them an idea of your perfect gown.

 The choice of your bridal gown comes down to a couple of considerations such as, does your wedding have a theme or a particular formality, and the location of the ceremony must be considered. If you are getting married on a sun kissed beach in the Caribbean, for example, you wont want to be sporting a traditional, and possibly hot and heavy bridal gown and train, in tropical temperatures.

 Your bridal gown needs to be to the floor with a train if your special day is a formal evening event, gloves should be considered too. For a semi-formal affair, daytime or evening then you should aim for an ankle length bridal gown with a veil but no train. A day time wedding or maybe if its your second marriage you could choose to wear a long or short gown, a veil should not be necessary.

 Another thing to take into consideration regarding your bridal gown choice is your body type. Choose a gown that enhances your body's good points but conceals the parts that you would rather not draw attention to. Below is a list of some body enhancing solutions to choosing your bridal gown.

·         Women that are tall and slim have no issues, you can wear what you like.

·         If your figure is more of the classic "hour glass" shape then wear a detailed, V-neck bodice and a skirt that is A-line in design.

·         Bottom heavy ladies or those with a pear-shaped figure should also wear a bodice with perhaps some beading and embroidery detailing and an A-line skirt.

·         For women that are short and dainty choose a bridal gown that will make your figure look fuller and an off the shoulder number with a flared skirt, flaring from the thigh area.
