Are you taking a GLP-1 medication for weight loss before your wedding? Before you go wedding dress shopping, order your gown, or begin alterations, there are some important things you need to consider.
As a Wedding Fashion Expert, bridal stylist, buyer, and someone who works closely with brides every day, I am sharing what I am seeing firsthand when it comes to GLP-1 weight loss and wedding dress shopping.
In this video, we discuss:
• When you should buy your wedding dress if you are planning to lose weight
• Why you should not wait to reach your goal weight before dress shopping
• How rapid weight loss can affect wedding dress sizing
• What happens if your body changes between your first and second alterations appointment
• Why some bridal stores and seamstresses charge additional alteration fees for significant size changes
• When you should ideally stabilize your weight before your wedding
• Why honesty with your bridal stylist and seamstress is so important
• How weight loss can affect your bust, waist, hips, and the overall fit of your gown
• Why ordering a wedding dress too small can be a risky decision
• How to plan your wedding dress alterations if your body is continuing to change
I want to be very clear: this video is not about promoting weight loss or suggesting that anyone needs to change their body for their wedding. Brides of every size and body type deserve to feel beautiful. This conversation is simply about sharing the bridal industry trends and experiences I am seeing so that you can make informed decisions and avoid unnecessary stress, alteration costs, and wedding dress fit issues.
Wedding dress shopping already comes with enough decisions! My goal is to help you feel prepared, educated, and confident throughout the entire process.
