Avoid Bustle Horror At Your Wedding Reception

Picture this … the wedding reception started 30 minutes ago and guests are waiting for the bride and groom to show up. The atmosphere is full of tension and stress. Several bridesmaids struggle to help a teary-eyed bride attach the bustle to her wedding dress. How could it be so difficult for all these people to attach a bustle to a wedding dress? Think this couldn’t possibly happen to you? Neither did these brides. Read on to prevent bustle horror from occurring at your wedding reception!

Most of you are probably wondering how something as seemingly simple as attaching a bustle to a dress could end up causing such alarm? The reasons are simple.

1. Not all bustles are created equal. There are several types of bustles and multiple ways to attach them to a wedding dress which all depend on the dress maker. And, very few people have any experience assembling a bustle.

2. Who pays attention to the bride’s bustle besides the bride? The bride generally attends dress fittings with people who will be around at her wedding, but the majority don’t pay attention to the process of assembling the bustle. The bride is shown how to attach the bustle, however, in most cases it is impossible for the bride to attach the bustle herself while wearing the dress.

So, how do you prevent bustle horror at your wedding? Make sure to bring along at least one person to your dress fittings that will be around you throughout your wedding. Ensure that they know how to attach the bustle to your dress and that they practice it a couple times. That’s it! Enjoy your wedding reception!
