ABSTRACT
Soon after getting engaged, a bride-to-be begins the process of shopping for her wedding gown. This is one of the most important decisions a bride makes, as the design of the gown can set the tone for the entire wedding. Will the gown be ultra-formal with a cathedral length train or more casual with a simple colored sash? Will the gown be made of silk, organza, taffeta, lace or satin? As for color, will it be a classic choice such as white, ivory or champagne, or will it contain a modern flash of blue, red or black? These are just a few of the many considerations that go into this important decision.
