You’ve found the perfect wedding dress - congratulations!!! Today on the Wedding Planning Podcast, we’re doing a thorough review of all the "post-dress shopping" to-do items. Our conversation covers the dress alterations process in detail, including pricing, money-saving tips, a timeline for when to get started, and alternative options for having your dress altered. We also cover: What's a bustle, do I need one, and how much does it cost? (article on bustling I mentioned in today's show can be found here) Pre-wedding weight loss & gain, Styling and shape wear options like bras, corsets, and compression garments, The importance of COMFORTABLE SHOES, Getting your dress home & last minute wrinkle patrol (the handheld steamer I mentioned can be found here) And some creative ways to preserve and / or repurpose your gown after the wedding.
