Wedding dresses. Big, fluffy ball gown or sleek and silky there's something to suit everyone. But what about in those months after you’ve said yes to the dress. When the doubt starts creeping in about whether or not you made the right decision. This is completely natural. After all, it is likely to be one of the most expensive items of clothing you have ever bought. If you’re struggling with this wedding dress anxiety, this week's episode of The Wedding Podcast is here to help.

What Can I Expect In This Week's Episode?

Nikita is joined in this episode by Rebecca from TDR Birmingham. With over 16 years worth of experience in the bridal wear industry, she has seen thousands of brides in this same position.

They discuss the best ways to help navigate your wedding dress wobbles. From trying on the dress again to talking to your bridal boutique about what your options are, they have all the insider tips to help you feel confident in your decision.

During this discussion, they also explore the process of wedding dress fittings and how this can have an important impact on easing your pre-wedding anxiety. As most wedding dresses aren’t perfectly fitted to you when they arrive, the journey of having it perfectly tailored to you can be a bit of an unknown. But Rebecca helps demystify this process and give you a clear timeline to expect from purchase to wedding day.
