Wedding dress shopping can be frustrating, depressing and expensive, but even more so for plus size women (and in bridal sizes? That is practically everyone). Koda Bridal is the store that brides have been waiting for. They specialize in dresses from 16-44, all specially selected to accentuate your curves and style. Mary Beth is the owner and stylist, and here are her tips for you!
"-Are you a bride on a budget? Is your wedding less than 6 months away? Ask your bridal salon about sample sale or discontinued wedding dresses. They are new dresses that have been discontinued by the manufacturer and cannot be ordered any more, so they can be very budget friendly!
- Choose a bridal salon that specializes in your size. Most bridal runs small, meaning a size 14 is really a size 10. (Celia's comment...THAT MAKES NO SENSE TO ME!!!!) Ask how many wedding dresses they carry that are available in your size. Most bridal salons carry sizes 8-12, which in street clothes are sizes 4-8.
-Make sure to ask these questions before making an appointment so you don't waste time at a store that can't accommodate you."
And If you want to have a large selection of plus-size dresses, drive to Pittsburgh PA, to Koda Bridal. www.kodabridal.com or MaryBeth@kodabridal.com Give us a call at 412-343-3212.
