Q: hi i just experienced a horrible situation with a local dress shop and i would like to inform other brides to be about the way this company conducts their business. How would I go about doing this?
(monica at 6/17/2008)
A: Hi Monica, I think word of mouth is the best way to get good or bad information out about a business.

Best Wishes,
Mikki
Q: How soon in advance (ideally) should the wedding gown as well as the other dresses be ordered and begun fitting?
(Danielle at 1/7/2008)
A: Hi Danielle, I would say check with your bridal shop. It will all depend on when they order their new styles and when they come in. However if you find your dress a year or so ahead it will be one less thing for you to do. Fittings usually take about 2 months.

Best Wishes,
Mikki
Q: I'm a plus size person, would a strapless dress look right on me. On regular size cloths I wear a 22 or sometimes a 24.
(Sandra at 1/5/2008)
A: HI Sandra, Many ladies size 22 or 24 wear strapless dresses. Wear what ever you feel comfortable in.

Best Wishes,
Mikki
Q: When should i order my bridesmaid dresses? for instance how many months before the wedding?
(amber at 9/3/2007)
A: Hi Amber, If possible choose the dresses about 8 to 6 months before the wedding.

Best Wishes,
Mikki
Q: Hi, I was wondering how I can get all of my bridemaids to happily agree on a bridesmaid dress that I like.
(kim at 8/31/2007)
A: Hi Kim, The bride gets to choose what ever dress she likes for the maids to wear. I am not sure if they will happily agree with your choice and it will be hard to get several girls to agree on one dress. Perhaps you could choose the color and let the girls choose the style from the same designer.

Best Wishes,
Mikki
Q: My favorite color is pink and my future husband's favorite color is red so we have decided to have a Valentine's Day theme. I want to have the bridemaids wear both pink and red since the colors will be red, pink, and white. How can i go about doing this?
(Tamara at 7/16/2007)
A: Hi Tamara, You choose a red dress and have them carry pink flowers.

Best Wishes,
Mikki
Q: How soon before the wedding should I buy my wedding dress?
(Tracy at 7/16/2007)
A: Hi Tracy, At least 6 months is usually good however if you see something you like sooner buy it.

Best Wishes,
Mikki
Q: Should I wear and white dress and should reception be small?

Q: I am having a late morning summer garden wedding(2nd marriage, approaching 50), I found a beautiful well fitting dress but it is a dark sapphire,(spaghetti straps, calf length). Do you think this is too dark of a color for a daytime summer wedding? I am thinking of having the maid of honor wear somehing in a blue print and the flower girl a white dress with a blue sash and the groom can wear a white shirt with a tie that matches my dress, and I will accent with different shades of blue flowers.
(cher at 2/17/2007)
A: Hi Cher, I do not think the color will be too dark. It is your wedding you can wear what ever color you like.

Best Wishes,
Mikki

Q: My wedding will be in October 2007. I was originally thinking of working with a golden yellow with yellow daisys but now I am thinking about a red wine color and red roses. What color do you think works best for that time of year? Can I do a combanation of both?
(Krizia at 11/10/2006)
A: Hi Krizia, I think red roses or daisys would be nice. I would not suggest using them together. You should choose your favorite color because that is the color that will work best for you.

Best Wishes,
Mikki
