WHY HIRE
A WEDDING DRESSER?
THE TOP 4 REASONS WHY A STYLIST
COMES IN HANDY ON YOUR WEDDING DAY
1. THE BRIDE`S P.A.
Your gown may be simple, but chances are it closes with a zipper or a myriad of
buttons. When you bought this gorgeous dress, the salespeople likely didn`t mention
that invisible zippers are fragile and needed 4 hands to be zipped, nor would they
have asked who did you have planned to steam it all or buttoning up those dozens of
buttons. You might think, "Surely my Bridesmaids can do that" - and they just very well
might. But it also might get time-consuming for them to navigate through all those
loops with their beautiful long nails they got done for your wedding or to steam all the
pretty gowns without smudging their makeup (And you may want to avoid the stress
of such banalities). There is the question of the veil of course, and if your wedding is
not in the summer, it is not a bad idea to have those coverups, shawls, or coats handy
when needed ( as you will be taking them on and off.)
2. WHEN NATURE CALLS
Unless you are superhuman, you will have to use the bathroom at some point during
your wedding. Maybe more than once. While that may be easier in smaller gowns, it is
definitely a challenge in those with dozens of layers of tulle, long rows of buttons or a
petticoat. You might think " I`ll just take it off and put it back on" or "Well that`s what I
have my Bridesmaids for". Think about the amount of time you spend getting ready
and looking fabulous on that day. Gowns are not easy just to take off and put back on,
nor they are convenient. There is also the wrinkling issue again. And we are not sure if
you have asked your Bridesmaids if they have helped someone to go in may layers of
tulle, lace or satin, but we should definitely advise you to do that. Well, it`s up to you
to think about this very private moment and decide.
3. STITCHES, FIXES AND NO STAINS DAY
