Hi Brides!

We all know that finding your wedding gown is one of the most important parts of planning! Once you’ve said yes to the dress, you’re able to easily plan the rest of the big day! As a bride myself, I have found myself stressing about what to wear for other events leading up to the wedding! Most people choose to go with white dresses for the bridal shower, bachelorette party, and engagement party, but it can be hard to find something you like! We’ve rounded up some of the best spots to find party dresses you’ll love, so you can be just as excited to say yes to these dresses as you are when you find your wedding gown!

Mall Shops

Every spring and summer, Francesca’s seems to have a variety of white dresses for graduations and bridal events! It’s a great place to look for your wedding event dresses, since they have multiple to choose from! Another spot to check in the mall is Altar’d State. Some of their stores (including their Nashville Hillsboro Village location) even have parts of the store sectioned off as “Little White Dress” shops, so you have an easy shopping process with everything in one place! These are also moderately priced and the stores often have sales going on, so you can save a little money to set aside for other wedding expenses, as well!

Online Stores

Lulu’s has pages and pages of white dresses available to order! SheIn is similar, with a plethora of options to choose from! While you aren’t able to try these on before you purchase, the multitude of choices is a great option so that you can find something you love!

Local Boutiques

In Nashville, there are tons of local boutiques to shop at for your little white dresses! Dress Up offers new styles weekly, so you consistently can see new styles, and stores like Blush and Molly Green with multiple locations throughout the city can provide accessible shopping and a variety of options!

It’s stressful enough to plan a wedding, so don’t let the shopping scare you! Find something you love and run with it. Another great idea to alleviate spending and stress is to wear your wedding shoes to each event! That way, you don’t have to buy new shoes for each event, and all of your wedding events will feature the same shoes! It’s fun to have a different outfit for each event, but save yourself some stress (and cash!) by transforming one look into multiple with accessories!

I hope that these tips send you on your way shopping with confidence and ease, so you can be prepared and ready for all of your events worry-free! And if you haven’t found the dress yet, schedule an appointment to come shop with us! We make it a super fun and exciting experience so that you find your dream gown with ease. Plus, you get to take it home with you same day!

Happy shopping & happy planning!
