Try On Time
Now that we’ve narrowed down your choices, it’s time for the fun part – try-on time! This is like entering a fairy tale. You’ll get to play dress-up, and see which one of them truly sparkles your heart. Don’t worry if you feel a little embarrassed; our stylists are experts at creating a fun and relaxing environment for you to try on dresses.
You may discover a beautiful dress that you had no idea was going to be your favorite. This is the beauty of trying on many different types of dresses. A fun surprise is always a good surprise.
Accessories, Accessories
Now that you’re wearing a beautiful dress, but wait – what about accessories? Veil? Jewelry? Belt? Accessories add to your outfit from “okay” to “I’m a goddess!” While you’re at your appointment, your stylist will help you choose accessories to match perfectly with your dress.
Are you interested in finding out what the current trend is? We’d be happy to tell you what’s hot and what’s not! You want to feel like the star of your own romantic movie, so don’t be afraid to go for that sparkly jewelry!
Details Matter
If you really like a style, let’s talk about logistics, sweetheart. Your stylist will explain the details of the timeline and alterations to you. It’s all about ensuring you look and feel great on your special day.
We’ll keep you posted on any fittings and alterations, so you can relax and enjoy the other things! Before you leave, be sure to ask your stylist about upcoming trunk shows. Some of our designers (like Pronovias and Eddy K) have private collections that you won’t want to miss.
Reality Check
Not every dress fits perfectly off the rack. In fact, that’s usually the case. Many times, a little alteration is needed. Your stylist will take care of all the details to ensure you receive the dress of your dreams, tailored to perfection. Just know that it’s all part of the wedding planning process!

Saying YES!
After trying on a couple (or several) dresses and talking about accessories, you may find “the one”. Yes, that magical moment when you say “YES!” to the dress! However, don’t rush.
It’s completely normal to feel a little pressure about choosing the right dress. If you’re still unsure after your visit, don’t hesitate to ask for a second opinion or schedule an appointment again. We believe there’s no “right” way to find your wedding dress, just the path that feels right to you.
Well, that’s it! The first appointment at Mon Amie is all about discovery, trying on, and above all else, having fun. You’ll leave with a dreamy vision and possibly even a new wardrobe BFF. Are you ready to start this adventure? Book now.
