- As you get to know the client, ask open ended questions, gender-neutral about the fiance and find out the gender that way, rather than saying something like, "So, what color tie is he wearing?"
- Understand that many couples will shop together which may make for a very emotional experience.
- You may occasionally encounter lesbian brides or bridegrooms who are looking for a very nice suit, rather than a dress. Is there a product you can offer that is fit for a woman's body? Or do you have a tailor you can refer?
- Don't assume that the couple has a wedding party. Many couples do not have anyone standing with them.
- You may start to notice that lesbian brides tend to look for a simpler dress or gown, likely without a long train or bustle. Consider directing them towards white or off-white bridesmaids dresses if they are looking for that color.
Have you taken any lesbian brides dress shopping? How was that experience? Do you own a bridal salon and have you worked with lesbian couples before?
