"Hi, I'm Jenna Den here at Walker's Eternity Bridal and Prom in Provo, Utah. I'd like to talk to you a little bit about selecting proper undergarments for your wedding dress. Here at Walker's we actually have a patented Body Beautiful corset. As you can see, it wraps around the waist of the bride. The back has laces and as you lace up, you pull the corset tighter and tighter and it can bring you in about five inches, is what we have promised our customers. It also helps with your posture on the wedding day, and it creates a slim silhouette underneath the dress, as well as kind of hide any imperfections that most brides are conscience about underneath their wedding dress. Other types of undergarments that you will want to need before you have any alterations done, you will want a proper push-up bra. Most dresses are built for bras to be to be give you a little bit of a lift in a wedding dress and so you will need that. For dresses that are a little bit more fitted like our mermaid silhouettes or our sheath silhouettes, you will want something a little bit snugger and not quite a corset underneath. Something, if you are familiar with the Spanx line, they are very wonderful for underneath your wedding dress. It's more of a lycra spandex suit underneath the dress, that you are still fitted and still comfortable, but it's not as bulky as a corset."
