Absolutely! Styling a more traditionally masculine piece with feminine elements (or vice versa) is a brilliant way to express yourself and make sure your wedding outfit feels like it represents you more holistically.

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.
