How many people can I can bring with me to my appointment?I understand this is an incredibly exciting time, and you would like your loved ones to help you choose your dress. From experience it is better to keep to a small group, too many opinions can cloud your personal feelings. I ask, where possible to bring only 1 or 2 guests, but 3 can sometimes be the magic number!
-
How long is my appointment?At Lara Belle Bridal I will allocate 2 hours for your initial consultation, allowing you plenty of time to try on a variety of dresses. I would be looking to try on between 6 & 8 gowns in this time, which should give you plenty of opportunity to try different shapes and designs. If you feel that you may require longer, please do not hesitate to mention to me on booking as I may be able to allocate some extra time.

What shall I bring to my appointment?For you to be able to make the most of your experience and get the best idea of how the gowns will look, I would advise flesh coloured underwear including a strapless bra although most dresses have cups and bra's are not required, you may feel for comfortable to wear one. If you have already chosen your shoes, please bring them with you. ​ I politely ask for you to not wear fake tan to keep my gowns in perfect condition for all to enjoy!

When should I be looking for my dress?I would recommend looking for The One, about 10-12 months before the big day, allowing time for the dresses to be made to your specification and delivered, this will also allow for you to collect the dress from Lara Belle and have time with your chosen stream stress to make any alternations. We can work with tighter restrictions if required with our "Love Me Now" sample collection
