Re: Has anyone second-guessed themselves AFTER they purchased the dress?

Well I am on dress #2 and so much happier! It looks great, but if you don't feel great in it then it isn't the right one!

Re: Has anyone second-guessed themselves AFTER they purchased the dress?

I know exactly how you feel. I am constantly second guessing my decision especially since I ordered it this month and my wedding isn't until next year I am constantly thinking maybe I should have waited longer and saw something else that might have been even better. I could go on and on and on about what goes through my head. Please don't second guess it, it looks great on you and there was a reason you picked it out in the first place, keep thinking about what made you get it and how you felt trying it on for the first time. You are gonna make a beautiful bride.

Re: Has anyone second-guessed themselves AFTER they purchased the dress?

I know how you feel -- don't change your dress!!! I'm the queen of 2nd guessing my gown (and everything else in this wedding planning ) and you have to look at the big picture.

You in your gown have not yet reached your potential. You are going to have your hair all done, your pretty veil, your makeup done, jewelry, a proper corset, etc etc. It totally changes the look and makes it dressy and princess-y.

Re: Has anyone second-guessed themselves AFTER they purchased the dress?

The pic of you in the dress looks fancy still. Maybe not as much as the model pic, only because she's wearing a Tiara & BLING necklace. I think the dress is beaaaaaaaautiful, and you shouldn't 2nd guess it. All you have to think about now, is how to fancy it up.

Re: Has anyone second-guessed themselves AFTER they purchased the dress?

I think your dress is Beautiful and definitely princess-y! It will be even more fancy once you have all of your accessories and hair and makeup done!

I 2nd guessed my dress a whole bunch of times after I bought it, and would drive myself crazy by looking at other dresses online and in magazines. But, every time I try it on, I love it and realize how 'me' it is! I think I finally stopped second guessing it about a month ago!

Re: Has anyone second-guessed themselves AFTER they purchased the dress?

Your dress is so nice, and it is definitely 'fancy' enough... The picture was taken in a store - the lighting is bad, the surroundings are bad. On the day of your wedding, you'l have your makeup done, your hair done, etc...and you will look beautiful!! Your dress is perfect.

Re: Has anyone second-guessed themselves AFTER they purchased the dress?

After I bought my dress my husband made me throw out all of my bridal magazines! I drove him crazy. In the end, I loved my dress. I think most of us go through that. After all it's only one day and we put all that pressure on ourselves.

I love my dress....but I just dont think its 'fancy' enough....its too late now though. Anyone else go through this?


Your dress is absolutely beautiful!! I had anxiety attacks for a week after I bought mine - I think though mostly because of price.
