Wedding Dress shopping

The first time I went I took my mom,friend, and grandma. I ended up picking a dress my gma would love but I didn't. Each time I went after I only took my mom and it was the right decision. Too many opinions makes it harder than it needs to be and not as much fun. It worked out great

The first trip I did what every bride is told not to do - I took my fiance along with my mom. The second trip I took my mom, dad, grandma, and again my fiance! However, we looked at so many dresses that he's forgotten which one I bought. =]

I took my mom and MOH. You don't want to many opinions or you will find yourself tryiing to please everyone else and not yourself.

My mother has no interest in going with me, which I admit I really wish she was different. Anyway, I went shopping by myself (kinda depressing) and the second time I asked my FMIL, FSIL, friend and Fniece. We had a great time! and I felt very supported. Unfortunately I didn't find the dress until I went shopping again by myself. I'm going to get their second opinion before I put down my deposit. 

I also think having a helpful, enthusiastic salesperson with a good eye for your style helps. I brought a couple of pics and the saleslady was amazing. Especially nice to me since I was alone. It's like the whole store was my "wedding party":)

Good Luck!!

I just took my mom. It was a very nice, calm experience. And most importantly, we found THE dress.
