Should you rent or buy a wedding dress to save costs?
If you rent a wedding dress, you can try on many different styles to choose the one that suits you best. Currently, the rental price for a wedding dress is ranging from 1.5 – 2 million VND. Alternatively, you can rent a package that includes a wedding gown, makeup, hairstyling, and traditional Vietnamese dress, with prices ranging from 5 – 10 million VND depending on the package you choose. If you have a limited budget, you can choose the package that includes makeup, wedding photography, and bring the wedding dress home to save costs.
If you buy a wedding dress, you will have a unique dress that perfectly fits your body shape. Getting a wedding dress tailored is suitable for couples who plan to hold multiple wedding ceremonies. However, the cost of tailoring a wedding dress is much higher than renting one. Moreover, if you don’t choose a reputable wedding dress tailor, the dress may not turn out as you expected.
Therefore, if you want to be safe and save costs, it is recommended to rent a wedding dress.

Tips for choosing and trying on wedding dresses
Make an appointment with the wedding dress rental shop
Prior to choosing a wedding dress, it is advisable to make an appointment with the rental shop. Contacting and scheduling in advance will allow the wedding dress studio to provide the best consultants for you.
When trying on wedding dresses, it is better to go during the daytime instead of the evening. Wedding dress studios tend to be crowded in the evening and it may be difficult for them to provide dedicated consultations during that time.
Go with trusted friends
You should bring 1-2 reliable friends to help you with opinions and choose the most suitable wedding dress. In addition, friends can boost your confidence when you put on a glamorous wedding dress that attracts everyone’s attention.

Don’t follow fashion trends
Wedding dress trends change rapidly, so they can quickly become outdated. You should choose “timeless” dresses, styles that combine classic and modern elements. The important thing is that the dress is suitable and enhances your body shape. In such a wedding dress, you will become much more charming, confident, and beautiful.
Wear beautiful lingerie
When trying on wedding dresses, you can admire yourself in front of the mirror with beautiful lingerie. Choosing a nice bra will make you feel happy, confident, and have more positive emotions about yourself. Additionally, a well-fitted bra will help you find the most suitable wedding dress.

Bring a camera
You can ask your friends to take photos of you from different angles while you try on wedding dresses. This way, you can fully appreciate the beauty as well as the flaws of each dress. From there, you can choose the most suitable wedding dress for yourself.
