Plus size wedding dresses
You may have a clear idea of your wedding dress, or several very different favourites. Give each a place on your shortlist. With plus size wedding dresses, the appointment is your chance to explore those choices and say what you enjoy wearing. Share the designs that interest you and ask about sample sizes before setting off. Find a UK partner boutique where you can book your DAMA appointment.
What can I try on before choosing my dress?
Your consultant helps you choose the size to order, and your gown is made in that size.
The sizes you can order and the samples you can try are separate questions. When you contact the team, mention your usual size and the dresses you would like to see. Ask which samples they have and how you can compare your favourites during the appointment. That conversation matters before you plan a journey.
How can I choose between different shapes and necklines?
Start with the impression you want: perhaps you like a broad skirt, a close fit or a neckline that leaves your shoulders bare. There is no need to choose a silhouette according to a rule about your figure. You can explore A-line wedding dresses to compare skirt shapes, or corset wedding dresses if the bodice is your starting point.
At the appointment, look at the dress from the side as well as the front. Sit down and notice how the bodice feels. Describe any pulling or pressure to your consultant, alongside the details you love. You should be able to talk about both appearance and fit when deciding what to order.
What if I want sleeves or a particular bridal look?
Keep those preferences in your search. Our long-sleeve wedding dresses give you another collection to explore if sleeves are important to you. Bring photographs of the looks you have saved, including any accessories you intend to wear, so you can explain the outfit you have in mind.
A registry office ceremony followed by lunch may lead you to different practical questions from an evening reception at a licensed venue. Tell the consultant about your plans. Think about the moments when you will be sitting, walking or raising your arms, and try those movements in the dress.
How much should I budget for a DAMA dress in the UK?
DAMA wedding dresses cost £1,600–3,800 at UK boutiques. Your boutique determines the price of the specific gown and places your order. Ask for that price while discussing your shortlist, and raise any questions about alterations with the boutique before you decide.
