The concept of wedding dress shopping is exciting, full of fantasy—yet no easy task. As a result, getting started can be daunting, and the process is (admittedly) not always glamorous.

This is an endeavor that requires expert advice; whether you hire a stylist well-versed in bridal, haute couture, and all things formal, or whether you go it alone with the help of a curated group of friends and family

When you're thinking about renting a wedding dress, there are a few important things to consider. Some bridal boutiques offer this option in lieu of buying if you only want the dress for the wedding day. There are also plenty of online wedding rental services with a wide range of styles to choose from.

This generally works in the same way as any other online shopping experience—only you send the garment back after you're done wearing it.
