During your time in the store you can choose four dresses to try on. Once you decide on a dress, a very helpful and gracious Mia staffer will have you pay for your dress in full (at a discount of 50-75% off!!) hand you a list of alteration and cleaning specialists, and send you on your soon-to-be-married way.<\/p>\n<p>A few tips when buying your wedding dress off the rack, courtesy of Mia\u2019s Lisa Toenjes:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>If a dress is too small, you can have your seamstress change it to a lace-up.<\/li>\n<li>A dress can be taken in approximately three sizes before you lose the look of the dress.<\/li>\n<li>Remember to bring a strapless bra, your favorite heels (or shoes of the same heel height you plan to wear for your wedding), your friends, a camera and lots of excitement!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Good luck, gown shoppers. And remember, patience and manners, girls. It\u2019s just plain good wedding karma!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tiny tubes of moisturizer, itsy bitsy fragrance vials, bite-size bits of anything yummy\u2014we love us some samples.
