    I had that feeling just from seeing the dress i liked in a magazine, then in the store when it was ten sizes too small, and then when they held up the small dress to me so I could get an idea. I ordered it in my size and cant wait until it arrives! I think you should get this one! Such an emotional  response at least warrants a try on if you can! Happy dress shopping!

    I got that feeling from a David's Bridal dress and then when I finally tried it on in person it just fell a bit short for me. I've tried it on twice now and still don't get that feeling. I don't know if I ever will. I'm waiting on a bridal salon to notify me when a Pronovias dress that I also liked online will be in. It's a 2014 model so I'm ever so patiently waiting.

    I hope you fall in love with that Mori Lee dress even more once you get to see it in person!

    Well if you think that dress is YOUR dress don't compromise! Wait it out or ask Mori Lee to send a sample sooner to that salon as you're very interested in purchasing it. As long as you still have at least 6-8 months before your wedding date you have no issues.

    I still have a year until mine so I have the leeway to wait around for THE dress at this point

    I did not get the "this is it!" feeling when I saw my dress on the hanger.  Actually, I passed it up and didn't think it would look flattering on me.  My MOH forced me to try it on, and that was it!  When it was on, and I saw how good I looked, then I cried like a baby!  I'd suggest at least trying the dress on soon!  There was a dress I saw online that I fell in love with, but it was completely wrong for my figure.  You never know what I dress will look like on, so it's always best to give it a shot.  Then, you can see if it lives up to what you are imagining!

    I saw my dress in the window of the store and was like "Wow, that is beautiful and a tad bit different! Seems like it'd be perfect for me!" 

    It was the 3rd dress I tried on and as she was slipping it over my head, I just felt like "Wow, this is it...I just know it" 

    And the rest was history :)

    I knew mine was the one from the first time I saw it online. It took me forever to find it, and I tried on other dresses too. Mine is from Mori Lee as well!

    I only saw one dress in a magazine that gave me the "This is the one!" feeling but I did my best to keep my hopes up when I went to try it on. Even though the sample was tiny and my consultant ran to the alterations department to get the dress sliced open just so I could step into it, it felt amazing to have on. No fireworks, no tears, just a confirmation that I had found my dress. The general response I got from my family was, "Yep. Yep that's the one." :)
