Before diving into wedding planning, take a moment to savor your engagement. Share the news with loved ones, take lots of photos of your ring, and dream about your future together!

If you’re feeling overwhelmed by all the advice coming your way, don’t worry- it is completely normal. The key is to focus on the parts of the wedding that matter most to you. For many brides, finding the dress is one of the highlights of the entire planning process.
Set the tone for your wedding
When you start shopping for your wedding gown, having a vision for your big day can make the process easier. Ask yourself these questions:

Your answers will help to shape the overall vibe of your wedding and guide your search for the perfect dress.
