Much of the time, this stretches to the groom not seeing the dress at all. However, you still might want to take some steps to coordinate your outfits for your wedding. You might have picked a themed wedding so you both need themed outfits. Or perhaps you want to ensure you have some touches of color that match each other.

They don’t sort out the underwear till last minute

One thing you must decide on once you have chosen your dress is whether or not you will need a bra. A lot of wedding dresses come with an insert so that your breasts are supported in the dress. However, some brides regret not getting a strapless bra so that they have an extra lift in the dress. Therefore, if you do want to get a new bra, you should make sure you go before you have your first fitting. Otherwise, the dress might sit differently without it, so they will need you to wear it for the appointment. Don’t make the mistake of leaving it till the last minute; you can find many great stores selling lingerie perfect for your wedding. Moreover, wearing underwear made of viscose from bamboo is a good idea to promote utmost comfort down there when you’re wearing your wedding dress.
