Wedding Dress Jitters

Is anyone else having a hard time commiting to a dress? I have found several dressed that I loove, but I haven't had the "OMG this is the one" feeling. I can see myself walking down the aisle in any of them, and eveyone I have taken dress shopping with me all choose different ones. I am confused, I thought this was suppose to be the easiest purchase, why am I soo indecisive?Undecided

Re: Wedding Dress Jitters

  • I experienced the same with you. I think this is form for most birdes who desire to get the most gorgeous dress to expose all the beauty in their big day. I also spent lots of time in finding my dream dress. I am not captious but I don't want to leave regret in the important moment of my  life. Now I have found a dress in a online stote trustedeal.com, a pretty and cute dress. But I haven't bought beacuse I am on the fence to be recommed the perfect one.

    I think I'm kind of lucky in this regard. My mom is set on me wearing her dress unless there is something wrong with it when I try it on in a few months. So I'm not even looking really until after that, and I already know a style that I love and looks good on me, so I'm sticking with that if all else fails....

    I'd say if you have the time, keep trying. If not try on the few that you've loved and have a close friend or family member help with the decision making.
  • I'd suggest taking a break from the shopping for a bit (unless your wedding is just around the corner).  When you return, try going on your own, or taking one person with you (maybe someone that knows you the best)..too many opinions causes confusion.  You will figure it out and know which dress is right for you..it will look and feel different than all the others!  GL!
  • I'm totally with u on this one! I've been to Davids Bridal 3times tried on the same 3 dresses each time. I've been to RK Bridal once and tried on 5 dresses... im so torn i dont know wat to do!!! My mom is a strict catholic and wud like me to wear the traditional covered up dress! My bridesmaid is tryin to oush me to get the princess/poofy look...and my other bridesmaid wants me to get something with frills n flowers! so everytone is fillin me up with their dream dress..its makin my decision so hard!!!

    I've seem some gorg fit'n'flare gowns that im really keen on! and im thinkin that the next time i go back i might just take 1 person with me!!!

    My advice to u is to bring 2ppl max!!!! to many opinions can make your decision harder!
  • Thanks Ladies for all your input. I think that my main hold up is that I DON'T have a preference on the type of dress. Everytime I look online, I find 5 Different Styles I like, but even though they don't look good for my body type I like them. Ugh I don't know. Before I even knew I was getting engaged I lost about 40lbs, I think my hold up is I am still seeing the old me. It is hard to grasp the new body, let alone in a Wedding Dress.

    I have taken a break, and all I can think about is the dress. I think it is going to be my hardest decision. I just want somebody to pick it for me and say there you go, and me fall in love with it. Since my Wedding isn't until May 2011 I am going to hold out for the fall preview ( I think they start shipping out in October) and really do my shopping then, the old stuff I like will be on clearance and the new stuff will give more decisions. Or maybe I am just making it harder on me....UGH!
