Dantella Bridal & Tailoring

When it comes to the shape and style of wedding gowns, it’s important to keep an open mind. Wedding dresses often look much different on the body than they do on the hanger.

Where to have your wedding is one of the most important choices you can make. Choosing a venue that traditionally handles weddings and similar events means that everything you need for a fabulous wedding is in a single location, making things easier for caterers, photographers, and others.

Even if you never go out of the house without makeup and perfume, it's best to forego it when you visit a bridal shop to try on dresses. Makeup and scents can get on the gowns and stain or damage them.
