Bridal essentials on their wedding day

Make the Most of your Bridal Appointment

Your bridal appointment is such a special experience; it’s the first step towards finding the dress. To help you feel calm, prepared, and confident, we’ve put together a simple checklist of what to bring along when you visit us at Even on a Rainy Day Bridal in North Wales.

1. Nude or Seamless Underwear

You’ll be trying on a range of styles, so bring underwear that won’t show through light fabrics. Nude tones and strapless bras are best. (Don’t worry - you’ll have plenty of privacy and comfort during your fitting!)

2. Shoes Similar to your Wedding Heels

If you already know the height of your wedding heels, bring them along. If not, bring a pair with a similar heel height to help you get a better idea of dress length and overall proportions.

3. Hair Tied up or Styled like the Big Day

Wearing your hair up or styled how you might on your wedding day can help you visualise your full bridal look - and how certain necklines or veils might suit you.

4. Photos or Pinterest Inspiration

If you have saved photos of dresses, silhouettes, or designers you love, bring them along. They help your bridal consultant understand your vision - and often, they’ll introduce you to similar styles you hadn’t considered.

5. Trusted Friends or Family

Choose one or two people whose opinions truly matter to you. Having a small support team helps you stay focused on how you feel in each gown, without too many voices in the mix.

6. An Open Mind!

Some brides find their dream dress in the first appointment, while others take a little longer - and that’s completely okay. Come with an open mind and enjoy the process; your consultant is there to guide you every step of the way.
