Top 5 Bridal Appointment Tips from Former Bridal Consultants

At Untamed Petals, we’re not just about stunning accessories—we’re also bridal experts! Many of our team members have a background in bridal consulting, and our owner and designer even owned her own bridal shop. This means we know what it’s like to be in your shoes and we’re here to help. Whether you’re getting ready for a dress appointment or looking to accessorize, here are our top 5 tips to make the most of your bridal shopping experience:

1. Bring the Right People
Choosing your dress is a big moment, and while it’s tempting to invite everyone, too many opinions can feel overwhelming. Limit your group to 2-3 trusted loved ones who have your best interest at heart and will focus on what makes you happy.

2. Go In with an Open Mind
It’s great to have a vision, but don’t get stuck on one specific style or Pinterest board. Your stylist might suggest something you hadn’t considered, and it could turn out to be the one! Trust the process and enjoy trying on different styles.

3. Wear Nude Undergarments
Simple nude undergarments are your best friend during bridal appointments. They’ll make it easier to visualize how each dress looks, especially with sheer or fitted designs, and help you feel confident during the process.

4. Take Photos (But Don’t Obsess)
It’s always a good idea to snap some photos during your appointment to look back on later. However, avoid sending them to too many people or overanalyzing them in the moment—you’ll know how the dress made you feel, and that’s what matters most.

5. Trust Your Stylist
Your stylist is there to help you shine. Be honest about what you like or don’t like, and trust their expertise in pulling dresses that match your style. They’ve helped countless brides find their perfect gown and will guide you every step of the way.

Bridal gown shopping should be one of the most memorable and joyful parts of your wedding planning journey. With the right preparation and mindset, it absolutely will be! And don’t forget—once you’ve found the dress, our Untamed Petals accessories are here to complete your look. Keep an eye on our Instagram for live styling sessions or reach out to us anytime for advice. We can’t wait to help you shine on your big day!
