Hi there, I'm new here and just recently engaged. My fiance and I are paying for our wedding ourselves and one budget conscious decision made was for me to buy a dress online. I've seen lots of great options on Preowned Wedding Dresses. That includes, new un-altered dresses, some of which include a return window. While I am looking for the budget dress I still want to have to that salon experience with my parents there. I figure this will help me figure out my bridal size and silhouette.
Where I was looking for help is when it comes to holding the appointment. How to explain to a salon my intention and budget without being written off as not being able to afford it plan to purchase a dress from them?
Anyone with a similar experience?
