6 Tips To Feel Confident In Your Wedding Dress

I just wanted to take a moment to say hi and properly introduce myself — I’m Lucy, the founder of Six Stories. Getting married was one of the most magical times of my life, but it was also busy, overwhelming, and full of emotions I didn’t expect. That’s why I started Six Stories—to create a space where everything feels as special, sacred, and stress-free as it should be.


Here are my 6 tips on how to feel confident in your wedding dress 🤍

⁠ ⁠1. Embrace the Moment

You are not meant to shrink for this moment—you are meant to rise into it. A wedding dress is not a costume; it is a reflection of who you already are. Do not mould yourself to fit the dress—let the dress honour the person you have always been.

2.⁠ ⁠Confidence Comes from Within

The beauty of the day is not in how you look, but in how you feel. No fabric, no tailoring, no reflection in the mirror will ever capture what radiates from within when you are present, loved, and at peace. A joyful heart is always the most beautiful thing in the room - say that one more time.

3.⁠ Forget 'Perfection' & Embrace the Real Magic

⁠The moment you stop looking for perfection is the moment you find it. Your partner is marrying you for who you are—not the weight you lost, the pose you practiced, or the flawless version of yourself you imagined. Let go, breathe it in, and trust that this day will be extraordinary simply because it is yours.

4.⁠ ⁠Comfort is Just as Important as Style

Choose Comfort as Much as Style. A stunning dress means nothing if you’re uncomfortable—if it’s heavy, tight, or digs in now, it’ll be worse after 12 hours. Test how it feels when you sit, walk, and dance, because your wedding day is too special to spend thinking about an outfit malfunction. (Trust me on this one…)


5.⁠ Posture is Your Secret Confidence Booster
 
Your Posture is Your Secret Weapon. Confidence isn’t just about how you feel—it’s how you carry yourself. Stand tall, shoulders back, and own the moment (because nothing photographs better than self-assurance).

6.⁠ The Right Undergarments Make Allll The Difference!

⁠The Right Undergarments Change Everything. Seamless bodysuits, shaping shorts, or a well-fitted bra can transform how your dress sits on your body. Test them with your dress in advance—because the last thing you want is to feel uncomfortable all day.


Final Thoughts: The Most Beautiful Thing You Can Wear? Confidence.

Your wedding dress is just the finishing touch—the real beauty comes from within. So breathe, be present, and embrace the moment. You’ve got this. 💫
