Let's be honest, how you look on your wedding day is kinda important. Sure, it's not the most important thing, but you want to feel like your absolute best on your big day - and we're here to help with that! Finding your wedding dress is obviously going to be a key component of that, so here's what you need to do to nail your wedding dress shopping.

When it comes to wedding dress shopping, the first thing to figure out (after you've trawled through Instagram) is where (ish) you want to get married. We're talking states and countries here, rather than suburbs. Once you've tackled that then it's time to talk budget. Roughly $5,180 of the average Australian wedding budget is allocated to the wedding dress, so keep that in mind while you're searching!

Once you've figured out what your dress budget is, it's time to take a look at different designers! You can search by state or territory on the One Fine Day Directory, allowing you to filter out designers that just don't make sense for your big day. Take a look at the pictures on each directory listing to get a sense of the gowns to see if they fit your wedding style.

If you feel as if the designers match your vision for your wedding day, send an enquiry to them on the One Fine Day Directory so you can get quotes and availability directly from the talented designers themselves.

You can also snoop at the brand's Instagram and watch videos of the designers all on the One Fine Day Wedding Planning Directory, and you can even meet some of these talented designers and see the dresses in the flesh at the One Fine Day Wedding Fair in Sydney and Melbourne!
