You’ve got engaged, you picked your date and venue and now, you get to go wedding dress shopping! There are thousands of dresses to choose from so I created a list of the top five wedding dress shops in Sioux Falls. Each are stocked with gorgeous dresses to fit whatever vibe you are going for. I have no doubt one of these bridal shops in Sioux Falls will help you find your dream dress!

But if you are feeling stuck here are some tips.

Wedding Dress Tips

1. Research what you like but still be open to other options. When I went dress shopping with my sister I made her try on dresses I knew she didn’t have in mind. It allowed her to really know what she wanted and to have no regrets about trying on all the different shapes and styles. In the end, what she liked even surprised her!
2. Know your budget. The numbers talk can be uncomfortable but it will save you from heartache later. Before your appointment, figure out what is the top number you are willing to spend. And if someone else is paying for it, figure out what they want to spend and be open to picking up the difference.
3. Take into consideration of the theme and venue. You don’t want to clash with the venue so decide what vibe you are going for. For example, a casual garden wedding dress would be different than a large formal grand ballroom wedding.
4. Shop early. Gowns can take up to 8 months to be produced and shipped. You want to have enough time to get alterations and accessorize accordingly. Give yourself that time!
5. Find a great bridal salon and call ahead. I’ll list a few below but before scheduling an appointment make sure the shop carries the style, and designer and is within your price point.
