For the bride, the wedding gown is the perhaps the most exciting aspect of planning a wedding. Meant
to worn only once, the wedding gown reflects the bride's personality and may become a treasured
family heirloom.
When choosing a wedding gown, there are two main factors to consider: cut and price. Not all wedding
dresses look the same on all body types. A tall, slender bride can accentuate curves with certain
necklines, silhouettes and design details. The same goes for curvy brides wanting to look slimmer
on their wedding day.
As for price, when shopping for a wedding dress in San Francisco, brides can choose from expensive
options like small, boutique bridal salons that carry a selection of designer wedding dresses or
designer studios that craft custom wedding dresses from scratch using the bride's input. Many of
these require appointments and take at least four months, time allotted for multiple fitting
sessions, to produce the final wedding gown. More affordable options include ready to wear wedding
gowns and bridesmaid dresses.
Here is a list of the best San Francisco wedding dress salons and stores in and around the San
