For the majority of Future Brides, looking for the flawless bridal dress is the most dreamed moment of the whole wedding planning. As is usual, countless brides-to-be dream about their bridal dress for a very long time!
If you’ve planned to get married during the next season and you’re literally dying to try your dress on, browsing magazines and websites looking for your own style, I’m gonna give you my top-tips to jump into your search really ready for!
Research, research, research
Ball gown, a-line or mermaid?! First and foremost, you should have thought about what kind of dress you want, browse magazines and websites, set your Pinterest board up in order to collect your ideas and show it once in the showroom. The more details, the better!
Schedule different appointments
Once you have a clear idea of what you want, it’s time to schedule appointments! In case, you have specific designers or stylist in mind, find out which showrooms have their bridal collections. The day you first try on a bridal dress, it has to be a stressless one…Doubtless, the best day to try your potential bridal dress is Saturday. Go for it!
Less is more
Just like in the movies, the Bride tends to bring her team of maids or family members. Wait! Less is more when it comes to the most important choice of your life. I suggest to invite your dearest just to your last fitting and surprise them revealing your choice!
Don’t’ forget your Venue
Where and when are you getting married? Your Venue is the key thing and it will be helpful in your search. If you will be having an open-air ceremony on the beach or in a garden, you should avoid ball gowns with long trains…they would be ruined after your first steps. If you’re exchanging your vows in an elegant Cathedral, you should avoid short or backless dresses.
Try on everything
Even if you already have your style set, make sure you give other styles a go at your first appointment. You may be surprised by what you find!
Wear a light makeup
You’re going to try on expensive wedding dresses in ivory, white, champagne… Wear a minimal makeup in order to have a natural and candid look…just as you will be on that special day!
Say your YES out loud
Don’t be surprised if you find your dress at the first stroke! Trying on hundreds of dresses will not make your choice easier, usually it just complicates things. Hence, if you find the bridal dress you love the most, go with it and say your YES out loud!
Have fun
The choice of your bridal dress will be one of the best moment of your life. You’ll surely be the center of attention because you’re…the bride-to-be. Have fun!
For this and for many other important moments… I’ll stand by you for your #destinationlove
Let 2021 be the happy one!

- Ornate Embellishments: opposite to minimalist, this trend come back after several seasons. And so is the time for jewels, diamonds, crystals, and allover beading.
- Sumptuous Sleeves: and it is like going back to the mid-1800s. This is perfect if you want a romantic style
- Slight Hints of Color : yes white, but with a bit of sophisticated colors.
- Raised Hemlines : green light to mini dresses, more practical and suited for short women.
- Body-Hugging Silhouettes: a must not for all.
- Trousers: because the sexual revolution is finally complete.
- Deconstructed dressing: a huge uplift in requests for cool separates to change up their look from day to night with minimal effort.

How to plan an amazing micro-Wedding to celebrate your postponed Wedding!
The global pandemic forced you and your Groom-to-be to move your Wedding Day to 2021 or beyond, but what if you still want to have a great Wedding celebration? There are so many different special ways to say your ‘Yes,I dos’ now… But how do you get started? Find out more here!
Rethink your Stationery
By the time the pandemic hit, most couples of betrothed sent out the greater part of their Wedding stationery or save-the-date cards at least. And if you’re planning to have a micro-Wedding celebration, you should rethink the paper items you already have without ordering new invitations. Then, add to your invitations a ‘change of plans’ card to send out to your closest family and friends and that’s it!
Choose Wisely
Most likely, you & your Groom want to invite everyone you know to celebrate your special day… But the premise of a micro-Wedding is to celebrate your love just with your closest relatives and dearest friends. Hence, choose wisely your loved ones!
Adjust your Wedding Design
Even if you may want to go with the very same color-palette and flower arrangements you initially chose, I suggest you opt for something different for your micro-Wedding. There are so many blooms and color schemes, don’t get stuck just on the first one!
Find the Right Wedding Venue
Social distancing is paramount, even at a micro-Wedding, so it’s important to consider an open-air setting that will allow guests to have their own space. Our Coast hosts so many secret gardens, private beaches and terraces to choose as a setting of your micro-Wedding where you can easily have a small intimate group in a larger space!
Go for a Single-serve Menu
In order to keep everyone safe, you should go for a single-serve Menu… Mini-bottles of sparkling water, fresh drinks or wine for each guest and pre-plated appetizers with a mix of everything or small portions of fresh culinary specialties for food. Your guests will appreciate it!
Pay attention to the Details
Details are what make your celebration unique to the two of you, so don’t underestimate them for your micro-Wedding… Without a huge number of guests, including personal touches will be more doable! Things like personal vows, calligraphy place cards, serving a favorite dish for dinner or interactive ceremony elements that get your guests involved can make your day unforgettable!
Consider a Destination Wedding
If it’s something you’ve always dreamed of, start looking into how to make it happen… A micro-Wedding might be the best occasion to celebrate your Destination Wedding!
Beautiful venues and my professional work are at your disposal to plan the most romantic micro-Wedding for you on our gorgeous Amalfi Coast!
