Research bridal boutiques - Once you've settled on a wedding date, start researching bridal boutiques in Colorado. Be sure to read their reviews and check their website to get an idea of their aesthetic style. Some boutiques specialize in bohemian wedding dresses, some feature more traditional or couture wedding dress styles. It's essential to find a boutique that carries dresses that match your vision, so you don't waste time on styles that you're not interested in. When researching which wedding dress shops and bridal boutiques to visit, we recommend prioritizing locally owned shops. A locally owned wedding dress shop will almost always provide a far better experience, they will be protective of their reputation and they most often have a stronger desire to provide an incredible experience. Plus, they are part of our local economy and wedding industry! Support small businesses. Here are a few of the favorites for La Joya Dulce brides:

Book appointments in advance - Just like wedding venues, bridal boutiques can be booked solid for months, so be sure to book appointments at least three months in advance. Be prepared to take off work or adjust your schedule as most appointments at bridal boutiques can take close to two hours. Ensure that you book appointments on the days that work best for you and your bridal party.
Bring your bridal party - Your bridal party should be involved in this experience, especially if they play a significant role in your wedding day. You can bring along friends, bridesmaids or your mom to gain their opinion and enjoy the experience together. Keep in mind that too many opinions can be overwhelming, so handpick a few friends whose opinions you value and trust.
Consider your wedding style - When heading to the appointments, bring pictures or a Pinterest board of the style of dress that you like. It's essential to think about your wedding venue, theme and overall aesthetic. For example, La Joya Dulce offers a laid back luxury, Colorado Ranch wedding vibe with stunning mountain views, horses, and an outdoor wedding ceremony site overlooking Sleeping Giant mountain. We are located near elegant lodges, luxurious hotels, world famous restaurants, shopping, and of course, hot springs. Our brides have selected a variety of wedding styles we will share with you in this article. Every photo featured is from a real wedding that occurred at La Joya Dulce. We hope this will help inspire you as you envision your Colorado wedding venue and wedding dress styles that you feel will go perfectly together.
Try on a variety of dresses - It's easy to get attached to a certain style or designer, but don't be afraid to try on dresses that catch your eye, even if they aren't exactly what you had in mind. You might be surprised at how flattering some styles can be on your figure. Keep in mind that the right dress may not always be the one you expected.
Finding a wedding dress can be a daunting task, especially with all the excitement that follows an engagement. However, with careful planning and a little research, you'll have a much better chance of finding a dress that's perfect for you. Keep an open mind, involve your friends, and focus on finding a dress that represents your unique style. With these tips, you'll be able to relax and enjoy the process of choosing a wedding dress in Colorado, one of the most magnificent states in America.
