Step-by-Step Guide to Measuring 

Gather Your Tools:

  • A soft measuring tape (preferred for accuracy and comfort).

  • A mirror to check your positioning or a second person to help ensure accuracy.

Key Measurements to Take:

  1. Bust: Measure around the fullest part of the bride's chest, making sure the tape is level across the back and snug but not tight. Keep the tape comfortably in place.

  2. Waist: Find the narrowest part of the torso, typically just above the belly button, and measure around. Ensure the tape is level all the way around and snug but not tight.

  3. Hips: Measure around the widest part of the hips, ensuring the tape is level and parallel across the back and front.

  4. Length (if needed): For dresses or veils, measure from the bride's shoulder or waist (depending on the item) down to the desired length. Be sure to measure straight down and ask the bride to stand naturally.

Tips for Accuracy:

  • Keep the measuring tape parallel to the ground for horizontal measurements.

  • Ensure the bride is standing naturally without sucking in or pushing out her stomach.

  • Take each measurement twice to ensure consistency and accuracy.

  • For length measurements, have the bride stand straight and avoid any bending or shifting.
