3 things to do before wedding dress shopping ↓🤍1. Reserve an appointmentThis saves a day and time just for you! You’re guaranteed to have your own personal stylist and a dressing room available for you and your special people.While you can walk-in, making an appointment (especially on weekends! 🥂) is the perfect way to make sure you’re not waiting—or having to come back another day. If you have a larger group, think about booking a weekday for more space!🤍2. Be looking at styles + keeping an open mindLook through socials or Pinterest and save some looks that stand out to you, and match your style and vision! Hot tip: You can actually send inspo photos directly to your stylist, so they know before you even walk in the door what you’re loving.It’s a good idea to still keep an open mind, since you never know how you’ll feel once these styles are on your body. Sometimes you walk out with exactly what you thought—other times a wild card dress steals your heart. 😌✨🤍3. Talk budgetTalking about what price point you’re comfortable with before going wedding dress shopping is so important. This helps you focus on the magic of your experience day-of, and give your stylist info on what you’re looking for!We will never pull gowns above your range without letting you know. So have a quick chat with whoever will be paying for your dress (fiancé, parents, grand-parents, in-laws, or yourself) and figure out a sweet spot beforehand. We’re all about making your bridal experience stress free, memorable, and ultra special 🥹🤍. Save this if you’re getting ready to start dress shopping!If you’ve already found your gown, leave some of your own advice/best tips below, to help a fellow bride out!#weddingplanning #dreamdress #wedding #weddingday #engaged #louisville #louisvillelocal #ky #indy #weddingtips

“I had an excellent experience at Sophia’s! They were respectful of staying within my budget and helped me find the perfect dress for me without feeling rushed. They were kind and encouraging and had great tips for helping me through the decision-making process… I found a dress that embodies my personality and style in dress form. I left feeling my decision was made in peace and confidence. I would recommend Sophia’s to any bride looking for a dress that’s “just right” for them.”

“My experience here was absolutely amazing!!! The store was stunning and the selection there was impressive!! My attendant Reagan was awesome!!!! She was so personable and easy to work with! She did an amazing job picking dresses based off of what I told her of my style! I was worried going in that I would have a hard time finding something I liked because I had a unique style I was going for but I ended up finding so many wonderful dresses and was torn between two!! Reagon made the appointment truly special and I am so grateful for that! If you are a future bride looking for the perfect dress you need to experience Sophia’s! You will not be disappointed!!!”

– Logan, Sophia’s Bride

“…they were the ONLY store around willing to go above and beyond to make my dreams come true. Elyssa, my Sophia’s consultant, was able to contact the designer and order a sample of the dress I was after and have it sent to the store for me. During my appointment I was able to try on my dream dress, as well as several others, and was given the royal treatment. I ultimately said yes to my dream dress, and I’m so happy to be a Sophia’s Bride!!”
