Q.  What can make me look taller on my wedding day?--Irmo, SC
A.   Try a wedding dress in the princess shapes.  An empire cut would be nice, too.  Wear high heals, too!

Q.  Should I have my wedding gown preserved?--Dorchester, SC
A.  I think so.  It can become a family heirloom to cherish for your daughter or even your granddaughter one day.   But you could also have it altered to use for a special occasion but I think you should preserve for future.

Q. Where do I store my wedding gown once I have had it professionally cleaned? --Camden, SC
A.  You should never hang your wedding gown for a long period of time.  The gown needs to be in a box with proper air circulation with acid free tissue to prevent permanent wrinkles.  Store under your bed or in your closet.  Don't put it in an attic or basement due to changing temperatures.

Q.  How do I care for my gown after the wedding? --Georgetown, SC
A.  First you should have it cleaned by a professional within 6 months.  This should cost somewhere between $75 and $250 depending on the size, fabric and detailing.  The store under bed or in a closed in a preserving box.

Q.  What style of dress can make me look slimmer?--Ft. Mill, SC
A.  Avoid sleeveless and shiny dresses!  Try an a-line, ball gown, or a basque waist style of dress.  A basque gives the illusion of an hourglass shape..

Q.  Can my bridesmaids wear black?--Pickens, SC
A.  Yes, black is always in style.  Very Popular.  

Q.  I have 5 bridesmaids, including my Maid of Honor...they all have such different body sizes...is there any particular style of dress that looks good on all types of body types?--Fountain Inn, SC
A.  A-line is always a good choice.  It is fitted at the top and gradually widens at the bottom.
