Gowns, Gowns and more Gowns

Welcome to another installment of the BWC blog. We are a full service bridal shop located in Viroqua, WI. One of the most important aspects of your wedding is the dress. Here are a few hints and insider tips to help you pick the perfect gown. First of all, do your research. Look through Bridal magazines and the Internet (you can link to our designers’ by clicking the link on the left side of the blog) to begin your search. Browse and get ideas about which necklines, fabrics or details fit your perfect day vision. The next thing to consider is timing. In our perfect world scenario we would love for you to have your gown ordered between ten months to a year before your wedding; to allow time for production (which can take up to six months), and to allow you ample time for alterations around your hectic schedule.
Now the fun can begin- trying on!!! In order to serve you best we recommend appointments- just call (608-637-8131) or e-mail (bonniesstaff@gmail.com) to make an appointment. We recommend weekday mornings for appointments- in general they are more peaceful and calm then a busy Saturday. When you come in for your appointment we recommend that you keep your entourage small- sometimes too many opinions can make decision making very difficult. Another tip of advice is to eat a snack or light meal before your appointment- to keep your focus throughout.
Once you come into our store, one of the BWC consultants will meet with you and discuss your "perfect day vision". Once your consultation is complete, you may browse through our large inventory and select those that you would like to try on. Your consultant will then help you into the gowns in our bridal suite. Together you will analyze the fit and style of each gown. Your consultant may also pull a few selections from our inventory that have details or necklines that have been working for you. At the end of the fashion show we will help guide you in your decision-making process. As always if you have any questions please call (608-637-8131) or e-mail(bonniesstaff@gmail.com) . We look forward to making your "perfect day vision" a beautiful reality. As always Bonnie’s make beautiful brides.
Happy Planning

The BWC Tip of the week-
"The Moms of the Wedding" should plan to order their dresses for your big day about 5-6 months before the wedding. This allows plenty of time for alterations around their busy schedules.
