We've put together our top tips to finding your perfect wedding dress.

Whether you'd like a fairytale princess gown or a sexy slinky number, choosing your wedding dress is one of the most exciting aspects of planning your big
day.

Follow our advice to find the wedding dress of your dreams!

1. First things first - set your wedding dress
budget. Try not to look at dresses that are too expensive, unless you
plan on going over budget!

2. Flick through magazines and the dress galleries on www.weddingmagazine.co.uk to get an idea of the style of dress you're looking for - it could be classic or contemporary, slinky or strapless. Consider your venue and the time of year, as well as what you like.

3. If you've spotted dresses you like by particular wedding dress
designers, book appointments with them or with bridal shops who stock
their designs.

4. Go for your first appointment with an open
mind and a helpful friend or your mum. Just take one person with you -
any more and the experience can be a little overwhelming and confusing.

5. Try on various styles of dress. You may find that a style you think won't suit you actually looks fabulous!
