After you ordered your dress...

Has anyone else second guessed themselves after ordering their dress. Wondering...Am I sure I got the right dress, was that dress the most flattering one on me etc, etc.

My story
I ordered my dress. All my life I dreamed of wearing a ball gown. However I tried on a a-line dress and it looked beautiful...but it's not a ball gown. I tried on several ball gowns and they were beautiful. But nothing compared to this dress. I have been looking for almost 8 months.

I know I got the right dress...but I just need some reassurance here. So help me out ladies

Re: After you ordered your dress...

If you tried on several gown and kept going back to the same dress...I think you ordered the right dress.

Don't look back...it must be beautiful and you will look beautiful!!

Re: After you ordered your dress...

It happens to all of us. I second guessed myself too whether I made the right choice. Its just because we want to be sure we picked the perfect dress for the wedding day. I'm sure you will be beautiful!

Re: After you ordered your dress...

I asked the same Question a couple months ago.

I tryed on so many dresses and never thought I would like so many, I was torn btw 3 and decided on the one I felt most drawn to
after I purchased it Finally, I decided to stress my self out by second guessing myself.

We love to torment ourselves dont we.
but in the end I stuck with my pick
and lately havent thought about it

basically we picked the ones we did for a reason - so it is The One
I cant wait to try it on again, especially when it is fitted for me

good luck and please try not to Drive yourself crazy,

I been there.

have fun

If that's the dress you feel the most beautiful in then you've purchased the right one!!!

I totally second guessed myself, then I went to go see the dress (mine comes in next month) and it just brought me back to loving it!

Re: After you ordered your dress...

I do TOTALLY!!!! It was the first dress I tried on and my sister and I loved it right away. I tried on many more and liked most of them but kept going back to this one. I bought it and now I wonder...I went to Davids b/c I knew I didn't want to spend a lot but I see many people went elsewhere and didn't spend a lot. Even before I bought it I wondered but every time I put it on I loved it. So now the wedding is 9 mos away and I still think what if....I think I need to try it on again!! Everyone that saw it loved it and I need to remember that I did too and STOP second guessing myself!! I think it happens to many people!

Re: After you ordered your dress...

I second guess myself too, especially when the dress came in and it was HUGE
I went back for my last fitting, and fell in love wih my dress all over again.

Re: After you ordered your dress...

Oh please, welcome to the maddness. I hated my dress up until my 2nd fitting. I tried on other dresses, kept looking at it online. then I went in for the 2nd fitting already to cancel the dress and I fell in love all over again.

We are women, we cant help it.

Re: After you ordered your dress...

It's totally normal, I feel like I second guess all my decisions. I get that way about my dress also but then when I think about it I know how much I loved it when I tried it on the first time. Always stick with your first instincts.
