Take it to the app (store)!
Whether we’re in quarantine or back to normal life, wedding gown shopping is easier to manage when we have online resources to turn to. With us tracking bank accounts, flights, and everyday retail deals on our smart devices already, why can’t that cross over into wedding dress shopping as well? Having a wedding gown app at your fingertips will give you the chance to track gowns you like and do a little gown searching at your convenience - when you’re waiting for laundry to dry or if you need a distraction during a commercial break. So, get ready to press that download button because we’ve rounded up five of the best wedding dress apps you should be using in your wedding gown search!
Wedding Wire
Next best thing to hiring a wedding planner? Downloading the Wedding Wire App! Not only can you keep track of your wedding budget and organize your guest list, but you can browse their wedding dress gallery and narrow your search by designer, price point, or style. The best part is you can complete a survey about your desired wedding gown and the app will present you with a personalized gallery of gowns that fit your bridal style, making your search 10 times easier than when you started.
Zola
The Zola app is a one-stop-shop for all of your wedding needs, from your registry to your wedding gown. The Zola Wedding Shop allows you to browse wedding gowns from various labels and make a purchase right in the app. Of course, it wouldn’t be Zola if they didn’t give you the option to buy all of your wedding attire in one place. So, they also offer bridal lingerie, shoes, jewelry, and headpieces so you can sort out your entire bridal ensemble in one fell swoop - saving you time and money!

Still White
If you have a tight budget to work with for your wedding gown, the Still White app is perfect for you! You can browse thousands of second-hand wedding gowns that are highly discounted from their original price. Not only is this a budget-friendly and sustainable way to shop for your wedding gown, but it also means you can probably shop for a reception wedding gown as well! You can also filter gowns by location, size, condition, features, etc., and have the app notify you when new gowns that fit your preferences are added to the app.
Pin, pin, pin ladies! While you can’t make any in-app purchases through the Pinterest app, it is one of the best places for the brainstorming and research phase of your wedding dress shopping! Create your bridal boards by putting together outfits, accessories and all, to help plan out your whole bridal ensemble; save dresses that you love; and see how different looks match up with your bridal party. Once you’ve established the baseline aesthetics of what your wedding style is, your actual shopping time at boutiques can be more focused and effective! Browse our Pinterest to get some inspiration for your wedding dress Pinterest board.
Zeekit
Believe it or not, you can still “try on” wedding gowns even if you’re searching virtually! While created for more everyday shopping, the Zeekit app has made it that much easier to create your own Cher from Clueless experience – even a wedding edition! All you have to do is upload an image of yourself for the app to scan and determine your body shape and size. You can then virtually try on and purchase as many wedding gowns as you like from various retailers such as Jenny Yoo, Net-a-Porter, Vera Wang, and UBridal. This would be a great app to use when searching for your other wedding festivity outfits as well, whether it’s your bachelorette party or rehearsal dinner!
