Why try on your wedding dress at Koonings?

How does a wedding dress fitting work at Koonings?
Never tried on a wedding dress before? No worries. You don’t have to walk in with a complete Pinterest board and know exactly what silhouette, fabric, and brand you’re looking for.
1. First, we’d like to get to know you
Your appointment begins with a consultation with your personal stylist. What do you like? Where are you getting married? What’s the vibe of your wedding? And perhaps most importantly: what do you want to feel comfortable in?
Have you saved any photos or already created a mood board? Feel free to bring them along. Don’t have any ideas yet? That’s totally fine, too.
2. Time to Discover Dresses
Then comes the best part: the dresses. With more than 4,500 wedding dresses, there’s plenty to discover. Your stylist will help you narrow down your choices based on your preferences, but may also surprise you with something you might never have considered on your own.
A-line, princess, mermaid, fit & flare, simple, or all-over lace: by trying on different styles, you’ll naturally figure out what works best for you.
3. Try it on, look at it, and feel it
A wedding dress may look fantastic on a hanger or a mannequin, but in the end, it’s all about how you feel in it.
That’s why, during your appointment, you’ll have plenty of time to try on different dresses in your private fitting room or suite. Check yourself out from every angle and walk around a bit, without other visitors or brides-to-be seeing you.
4. And then, all of a sudden… Say Yes
Sometimes you just know right away. Sometimes you have to go back to that old favorite one more time. Both are perfectly fine.
Will you find your dream dress during your appointment? If so, we’ll celebrate your very own “Say Yes” moment together, of course.

Trying on a wedding dress with friends or family
Trying on your wedding dress with your mom, sister, best friends, or other special people makes the moment even more special. That’s why there’s room for your entourage in your private fitting room.
While you’re trying on dresses with your stylist, your guests can watch from the fitting room. And yes, that also means you’ll see their first reactions as soon as you step out.
From tears to a very clear “no, next one”: it’s all part of the process.

With thousands of wedding dresses to choose from, a large collection can sound a little overwhelming. That’s exactly why you’re not on your own.
At Koonings, you’ll receive personalized guidance from an experienced stylist. She’ll consider not only what you like, but also fit, silhouette, fabric, and the look you’re going for.
And sometimes, your dream dress is actually hanging right there among the dresses you would have walked right past.
What should you bring when you go to try on a wedding dress?
Actually, all you really need to bring are yourself and your favorite people. Still, there are a few things that might come in handy:
- Inspirational photos for your bridal mood board
- Nude-colored and preferably seamless underwear
- Shoes with a heel height similar to the one you want to wear at your wedding, if you already have them
- A hair tie or clip to try out different looks
- An open mind: the dress you least expect might just be the one
Did you forget something? No problem. Your appointment is all about finding the wedding dress that’s right for you.

Frequently Asked Questions About Wedding Dresses at Koonings
At Koonings, you’ll find wedding dresses in sizes 34 through 58.
Yes, you need to make an appointment to come try on dresses with us. That way, we can be sure that one of our stylists will be able to give you their full attention to help you find your dream dress.
There is no set rule on this question, as it depends on many factors. On average, a bride takes 4 people as her entourage. For a groom, the average is 2-3 people. We know from experience that the more people you bring, the more difficult it often becomes for yourself. After all, everyone has an opinion and too many opinions often leads to confusion. If you do want to bring more people, this is no problem. We would appreciate it if you mention this when making your appointment, so that we can take this into account when planning the fitting rooms. For follow-up appointments to try on and pick up your dress, you usually bring one or two people entourage with you. For larger parties, our special VIP lounge is perfect.
