I bought my dress as well....BUTTTT i have no regrets. i tried on about 15 dresses and liked NOT 1 until i found MY dress. I didn't want to buy a dress yet but i think you know when it is the one!!!!!

I would want to wait longer bc i would like to wait another season and see what comes out...I am just afraid bc some designers it can take a year to get your dress...Yes i know sometimes you can get it in weeks or just a few months but i get so nervous about this...Maybe if i can find out in general how long a particular designer takes to deliver your dress then i can decide how long to wait


I can tell you that jasmine is pretty quick I got my dress in about 3 months!!!!

That is what i tried. I was going to just look for fun. And sure enough I fell in love and bought it on Saturday. So make sure you are willing to buy early even if you think you're just shopping for fun.

thanks so much for the advice...I think I needed to hear that I hear of other brides getting their dresses and thought I was on the late train...LOL I also want to wait for th spring, summer and fall styles so I don't look back and wish I would have gotten a different one.
Thanks a bunch

I dont plan on buying mine for a long time. I change my mind so much. I think it crazzy to get a dress next years styles might be different. Who wants to wear a dress that is out of style

It is crazy, and if it wasnt for the fact that many designers can take up to a year to deliver your dress after you buy it then i dont think most of us would buy one so far ahead of time

I am guilty of this. I had major doubts and was going to begin dress shopping again but then my mother knocked me out of it. Make sure you really really love your dress before you buy it.

Thanks so much, I planned to wait a little because my girlfriend told me when she got married she bought her dress too soon and then ended up not liking it anymore with all the other things that came out.

Thanks for putting my mind at ease; I was starting to feel a bit behind because I haven't even started looking yet.

Good luck with your dress situation! I hope you find something you're really happy with.

Re: Advice for the 08 girls!!!!

I read that you shouldn't start shopping until 9-10 months before the wedding because styles change so much so you may fall in love with something new. Also, I would absolutely tell them that your wedding is a few weeks before so you will absolutely get it on time....but I read in someones review (or somewhere on LIW) that most brides loose weight the week of their wedding and thats why a lot of dresses are too big on the brides. Their bridal salon person told them to eat a bowl of ice cream every night before bed until the day of the wedding so you don't loose those last few pounds which make a difference in you hiking up your strapless dress all night.
