Elopements and micro weddings are such fabulous options, with lots of benefits when it comes to your nuptials; more time for you and your partner, less planning which can mean less stress, an opportunity to create exactly the vibe you want, and often a lot less expense than a full-blown wedding! But no matter how big or small your wedding, what you chose to wear is an essential part of the day.

Dress shopping can often be the most fun and exciting part of the wedding planning process, so I don’t blame you for wanting to dive right in! Before we even talk about the timeline, make sure first that you have a date set for your wedding, the venue booked and a budget planned out for the dress. The sweet spot for dress shopping is about 12–18 months before your wedding day.
