When that big day arrives and you set your wedding date, it's time to go shopping for the perfect wedding gown. Most women have been dreaming about this day and imagining what it would be like since they were a little girl. Neverheless, when it comes time to look for the right dress and you're faced with all of the options available today, you may feel a little overwhelmed.

There are so many different things that you must take into consideration when choosing your wedding gown that it can be difficult to know where to start. Another problem that many brides-to-be run into is that the dress they always imagined would look so beautiful, does not suit them at all once they try it on. When this happens, you have to start all over again from the very beginning.

Here are 5 tips for choosing your wedding gown that can help you choose the one that suits you the best:

1. Decide the theme for your wedding and where it will be held before looking for the right dress. This is important because you need to match the overall theme of your wedding or you'll look out of place. Imagine wearing a long sleeve, floor length wedding dress with high heels in the middle of summer when your ceremony is being held on the sandy beach. Location and theme is a vital part of choosing your wedding dress so you must take this into consideration.

2. Even if you've had your heart set on a specific style of dress, be flexible. If that particular style is unflattering for your body type, do not pick it anyway. Try on different styles until you find the one that is the most flattering and you'll be much happier and more relaxed on your wedding day.

3. Start your shopping early and visit a variety of stores before making your finial decision. Try on different dresses and then go back a few days, even weeks later and try them all on again. Do not make a decision until you're positive you have found the perfect gown.

4. When choosing your wedding dress, consider your skin tone, hair color and the hairstyle you plan to wear because these will have a huge impact on the overall look.

5. Comfort is one of the most important things you need to consider when buying a wedding gown. If you're not comfortable, you're going to be uneasy through the entire wedding and this will interfere with your big day.

Once you've made your decision and purchased the dress of your dreams, do not continue looking at other gowns. If you do, you'll most likely find something else that you wish you had chosen instead of what you actually purchased.

Second guessing yourself is going to stress you out and put a lot of unnecessary pressure on you when you already have enough as it is. Take your time, shop around and once you make a decision, move on to some of the other important decisions that need to be made and you'll be happier with the wedding gown you chose.
