Clothes make the people. The fact is that today we very consciously pay attention to our clothes selection. A chic wardrobe has become a part of our culture and almost a “must”.

The symbolic character of the wedding dress
Why is the selection of our dress really important to us? On the one hand, one celebrates themself and the love of his life with it. On the other hand, we combine many emotions with the material from which dreams are made. After all, the wedding robe is the subject of countless photos and – at least during the ceremony – the center of all attention. The bride shows with the dress a side of her personality, be it traditional, conservative or freaked out. For these reasons, most ladies choose a more traditional style – even if they had something crazy in the back head. This was told by a friendly personal shopper. She mentioned a bride who plans a vintage chic wedding and dreams of a dress from the 1920s. But when she slipped into a traditional dress by Lazaro, she was so excited of the fact that she had to have it. Because this style gave her the feeling of being a little “princess” and “girl” in the same time. And apparently, our brain is linking this feeling to the wedding fantasies you already have as a little girl.
Could this happen to you as well?
The selection of the wedding dress: From the perspective of wedding photographers
Regardless of the style you are looking forward to: From all the beautiful brides that we were allowed to photograph up to now, we liked the clothes that keep “quality” from a distance. This is strongly reflected in the wedding photos.
Then we mention the word “Style-true” in the title. For good reason: this is another factor that you can consider when choosing. The wedding dress should always fit perfectly to the wearer, be matched to the location and the entire wedding day.
Regardless of the style preference, as a modern bride, you can look for three things when choosing your dress:
- Timeless Elegance
- Quality and
- a touch of Individuality
