I wanna go dress shopping....

Ambie106

I wanna go dress shopping sooooo bad... I am not at the weight I wanna be but almost there.... I am scared I am going to fall in love and buy something now and then few months later I will find something else and it will be too late.... Hmmmm to go or not to go is that the question????

Go for it. When you find the dress stop looking and that means STOP looking no more bridal salons, pics nuttin.

I'm not at the weight I want to be either due to thyroid issues, but I'm going shopping this weekend.  I at least want to see what looks flattering on my body type and if I find "THE dress" and it's not on sale or on clearance, I'll come back and buy it in 2 months or so when I have lost some weight.  No worries!

Lol this! ...I found my dress and have now stopped looking. Now it's just putting a deposit down on it.

I say at least go and see what is out there!

I know im in the middle of a weight battle too Ambie so I put the deposit down on my dress. But the salon isnt measuring me until the last possible moment, so for me in October. I'm praying to the weight loss gods that i don't but that weight back on over the holidays.

I guess for me I dont know what I want and then I dont want to pressured into buying something and then I am worried about what FI is going to think the day he sees me in my dress... I let him pick out some of the dresses he like and they are total opposite from what I like...

You should definitely go out and enjoy this part of the wedding process!

Atleast you'll know you'll look better than expected when it comes time for the last final fitting(s) but for now can see what's out there!

Hey - I am not at my ideal weight either. I bought my dress, but talked to the tailor in the store and it can be altered a few sizes down.  I've lost about 15 lbs since I bought my dress. 15 more to go. Hopefully it all works out when it comes time to begin fittings!

Ambie106

Okay you ladies talked me into it I am going to make an appt for next Monday....

meganbouchard

I'm in the same situation as you! I want to lose 30 pounds before I go shopping, but I've found pics that I LOVE and I really want to try some dresses on... I think you've all convinced me to go too :P

Ha ha ha!  I don't think ANY of us are at our ideal weight for the wedding.  It is a good thing you booked the appointment, and remember, it is always easier to take a dress in than it is to take it out!

... im at my lowest weight right now so im forced to stay this wayy haha it really does help you keep on track.
