Every bride wants to look her best on her big day and this is absolutely befitting as “Every bride deserves her own magic”. From the perfect wedding dress to the most flattering accessories, there are so many elements to consider when putting together the ideal bridal look – – from the civil wedding, traditional wedding, wedding brunch/dinner to the white wedding. This is where a bridal stylist comes in; a bridal stylist is a professional who can help a bride look and feel her best on her wedding day. In this article, Regal Estilo discusses why brides need a bridal stylist and the benefits of hiring one.
Saves Time and Energy
Planning a wedding can be stressful and time-consuming, especially when it comes to finding the perfect dress and accessories to complement the ideal look. A bridal stylist can help streamline the process of researching and sourcing bridal looks through their verse portfolios and industry knowledge. This will help save the bride from overwhelming choices by providing selected options tailored specifically to fit her style and preferences and reduce the intimidation that comes with decision-making. Bridal stylists can also provide time management by scheduling and tracking appointments – consultations, fittings, fabric sourcing/viewings for you to ensure everything is organised, and efficient with little/ no disappointments, giving you more time and energy to focus on other aspects of the wedding.
Professional Advice
Bridal stylists are experts in fashion and understand the intricacies of putting together what looks best on different body types and skin tones. They can offer valuable advice on the best silhouettes, hairstyles, makeup, and colours that flatter your body type and suit your style and personality e.g the type of aso-oke to consider for a Yoruba bride, the type of material to consider for an Igbo bride – akwa ocha fabric or george fabric and the type of fabric to consider for a Hausa bride – lace, ankara or aso – oke amongst others. They can also suggest accessories, such as jewelry, shoes, and veils, that complement and complete your look.
Personalized Experience
A bridal stylist takes the time to get to know the bride’s personal style, preferences, and vision for her wedding day. They will work closely with the bride to create a cohesive and personalized look that reflects her personality and fits the overall theme and vibe of the wedding. The result is a unique and unforgettable bridal look that stands out from the rest while she enjoys a seamless bridal experience.
Stress-Free Experience
Wedding planning can be stressful, and the last thing a bride wants to worry about is her wedding day look. A bridal stylist takes care of all the details – from the big things like dress fittings and the final styling on the wedding day to the small things such as getting together essential items needed on the day. They make sure everything is perfect and stress-free by working closely with all third-party vendors e.g. planners, makeup artists, hairstylists, on-the-day coordinators, media teams, etc. to ensure a picture-perfect look and also allowing the bride to relax and enjoy her special day.
Cost-Effective
Contrary to popular belief, hiring a bridal stylist can actually save money in the long run as it is best not to be “penny wise and pound foolish”. A bridal stylist can help the bride choose a dress and accessories that fit her budget through negotiations, network, and vendor relationships while still achieving the desired look. They can also advise on cost-effective options, such as 2 in 1 outfit options, alternative materials/fabrics, or accessories, that are just as stylish and beautiful.
In conclusion, hiring a bridal stylist can make a significant difference in a bride’s overall wedding look and experience. From saving time and energy to offering professional advice, personalized experiences, stress-free experiences, and cost-effective options, and vendor management, a bridal stylist can help the bride look and feel her best on her big day. If you’re a bride-to-be, consider hiring a bridal stylist like Regal Estilo to help you achieve your dream wedding look and enjoy a seamless and ultimate bridal styling experience.
