Shopping Tips For Buying Wedding Attire

  • Search the web for wedding dress designers with informal gown collections. Informal gowns usually don't have long trains and are less ornate... which is the preferred style of gown for mature brides.
  • If you prefer a wedding dress alternative, such as bridal suits or wedding 2-piece special occasion dresses... you will find these among the mothers of the bride gowns.
  • You can order your wedding attire online or at a bridal shop. Make sure you know what the return policy is.
  • Always pay for your bridal gown with a credit card. If there is something wrong with the dress, you can resolve the matter through your credit card company if you can't come to an agreement with the store.
  • Go to the designers’ web site for a list of the stores in your area that carry their designs. A wedding shop can order the bridal gown for you, even though it may not be in the store.
  • Most bridal stores have a no refund, no exchanges policy so if you order your dress, you must be sure you like it. 
  • Some stores will allow you to exchange it for something in the store. But if that option isn’t available you will be stuck with the gown.

Mature Wedding Dresses: Try Department Stores

When searching for mature wedding dresses try looking in some of the better department stores.

The formal wear department could have something you could use. Dillards, JC Penney, and Nordstrom are just a few stores some mature brides have been successful in finding a wedding outfit. Macy's and Bloomingdale's actually sell wedding dresses online.

You may have a dress boutique in your town that specializes in formal wear. If they don’t have what you like in the store they can usually order it for you.
