The custom of starting to assemble the wedding outfit from an early age it is no longer so common. Today, the task of starting to choose the bed, table and bath pieces for the home begins when you are scheduled for a wedding.
Some couples prefer to buy the pieces gradually, while others prefer to be more practical and buy all at once. Either way, the ideal is for the bride to start arranging everything well in advance.
The deadline to start is three to six months before marriage. And as the choice of pieces is no longer the exclusive bride, it is worth asking the help of the future husband at the time of shopping.
They can spend time together planning the details of their new home and discuss their tastes.
An important tip of how to assemble the wedding trousseau is that the pieces need to be in keeping with the style of home decor. The colors are up to the grooms, but a tip is to choose light shades, as they never go out of style.
If you choose brighter colors, always try to match the pieces together so you can make variations. Patterned fabrics make the house more charming, but have common sense. Very different prints draw the harmony of the environment.
Check out some more tips before you start shopping and learn how to choose bed, table and bath pieces.
Bed
The main tip about bedding, just start shopping after you have chosen the mattress. You need to know the exact size of the mattress to hit the sheets (especially the elastic sheet models), comforters, bedspreads and blankets.
Also pay attention to choosing the right pillows. When the pillow is not suitable for your body and your nighttime habits, some symptoms such as body aches and that feeling of having slept badly may develop over time.
Table
There are some items that really are important in the kitchen, but not an exact amount to buy. Include dishcloths, easy-to-wash tablecloths on your list, and at least one more elegant for more formal occasions. American games are practical options for meal use and can complete the layette.
Shower
Bath towels, washcloths and bathroom rugs are indispensable items. Prefer to buy loose towels instead of coordinated sets. In addition to paying less, you can make different combinations. But remember that saving money doesn't mean giving up quality and comfort. 100% cotton towels last longer, are cuddly and more practical to wash.
