Re: FH's best friend's fiance is wearing the same bridal gown as me and their wedding is before ours
i was talking to her the other day and she was describing her dress and we fngured out that we have the same exact dress. FH is very close to his best friend since elementary school so his friend is inviting FH's parents to the wedding as well. i am so upset. everyone keeps saying no one will notice but i wanted to feel like my dress was special and unique.

Re: FH's best friend's fiance is wearing the same bridal gown as me and their wedding is before ours
i think that the dress will look different on you then it did her but if it bothers you that much can you possibly exchange it and order another one?

Re: FH's best friend's fiance is wearing the same bridal gown as me and their wedding is before ours
I'm sorry about this.
But I do agree with the other ladies. No two people can wear the dress the same. Somehow it will look different on you.

Re: FH's best friend's fiance is wearing the same bridal gown as me and their wedding is before ours
But wait, did you tell FH that the dress is the same? Don't mention it to him! That way, he won't know to look at it that day and he's a boy - by the time you guys get married he'll never put 2 and 2 together!

Re: FH's best friend's fiance is wearing the same bridal gown as me and their wedding is before ours
So sorry to hear. I could only imagine how you feel. But it is true, no two people wear the dress the same. Perhaps you can have the bridal salon alter yours somehow...they do this all the time.

Re: FH's best friend's fiance is wearing the same bridal gown as me and their wedding is before ours
thanks girls for your support. i wouldnt exchnage the dress b/c i know its the dress and its already ordered hollow to hem for me. when people say, it will look differently on her the only thing i can think if is that she is taller and skinner then me and the dress will probably look better on her. the weddings are two months apart, and yes FH knows. i freaked out and then i thought- o know he'll see my dress

Re: FH's best friend's fiance is wearing the same bridal gown as me and their wedding is before ours
This is so upsetting but your hair, head piece & veil will be different.
You are going to look so beautiful and your FH is not only going to see your gown. He is going to be seeing his beautiful new wife filled with love and happiness.
If it's of any comfort, I doubt my DH could describe or pick out my dress on someone else - and we have a big picture on our wall

Re: FH's best friend's fiance is wearing the same bridal gown as me and their wedding is before ours
I think people remember that you looked beautiful.....not necessarily the detail on your dress. It 's not just the dress - it's the veil, headpiece, flowers, hair and makeup that make the statement. I am sure that you will both look fabulous in your own way. It's a cliche but you will wear the dress - the dress won't wear you!!! It is interesting that two good friends picked women with such similar taste...

I cant believe it! I would also be upset but both of you will look different and unique even though the dress is the same. Was this by coincidence????

Every dress looks different on everyone. Don't worry about it.
I must agree with this. Two people can wear the same clothes and they will look different on each person. Each person has an unique style and the way they project themselves is different. Also, how far apart are the weddings? I'm quite sure your wedding and your dress will be remembered by YOU, the one that you are wearing and not by your FH's friend fiancee. And the accessories that you use are not the same as hers, so right there you both would give the dress a different look. Don't worry, you would still look beautiful in your dress.

I don't think, you should have told..anyone...because now they will look at the dress even harder. But, don't worry, yours will look different.
I went to a wedding in May..and was absolutely scared, that we would have picked, the same gown. Thank GOD it did not happen. Good luck
