For those of you who have gotten your dress, did you know right away it was 'the' dress?
I found a dress a loved but later found out it was discontinued. Then I found 2 dresses at another store that I really like, but I haven't gotten the this is it feeling. I was jsut curious to see if everyone else got that feeling or not.

I knew the dress I picked was 'the one' because I passed by it and it caught my eye.... but the woman helping me didn't pull it for me to try on & I didn't say any thing. She pulled a bunch of dresses that just weren't *IT*. She said 'I have one more dress, but it's discontinued, so if it doesn't fit we can't order a different size or anything like that unfortunately'... sure enough it was the dress that had caught my eye earlier & it fit me like a glove! Everyone around stopped to look at me in my dress & my family & MOH were like that's it, that's it! So that's how I knew!

Re: Did you know it was the one?
I found my dress at the 4th salon I went to. I really liked it, but I didn't want to buy it yet because I had another appointment the following week at another salon.
The next salon had the same dress, so I tried on a few dresses but when I put on 'the dress' I knew. I had narrowed it down to 2 dress and I was going to try on the other option, but I didn't. Instead, I put on 'the dress' again. It wasn't until I made up my mind and picked it that I began to get emotional. I def got the feelings that everyone talks about.

When I went dress shopping, I told the lady what I liked, and somehow a dress ended up in my try-on pile that was the complete opposite. I put it on and laughed at first because it wasn't what I envisioned at all...I took it off immediately...and then a minute later I put it back on and stood there looking at it for about 45 minutes LOL...and I still can't stop thinking about it...going back to say yes to the dress on Saturday!

I didn't know what I was supposed to feel. My dress was about half way through my try on process. When I first put it on I didn't want to take it off, but I tried on the rest anyway. Then when I was done I asked to put 'mine' on again. I think my whole demeanor changed, the way I walked in it and everything. It wasn't even one I looked at or saw before.

I had a similar experience. I found mine and then kept going, even though I loved it. But every dress after that didn't compare. I just wanted to keep trying on my dress. My mom and MOH knew it was my dress as soon as I walked out in it.

If you want to know, the first time I saw my dress - I was like 'ugh' too much bling - it's going to cut me in half wrong - I am NOT trying that on.
I was trying on several similar dresses that I really liked, I had found a number of dresses that looked great on me - I found a certain style groove.
Then my mother went back to that dress, of all dresses, and asked me to please try it on for her.
So I did...
For once I felt comfortable in a dress. I liked it, and I wanted to twirl and dance in it. So I did a quick twirl to call it mine :).

Mine was the first one I tried on, but at the time I didn't think so. My mom loved it, but I wasn't sure. I tried on a few more dresses while that dress hung to the side. After about 4, I found that I kept glancing at that dress, and once I put it on the second time, I just knew. I felt so comfortable and beautiful, and it just felt effortless.

Totally! It was the 4th dress I put on... I kept going back to it and comparing everything else to it. My bridal consultant had to basically chase me around the salon to take it off

Re: Did you know it was the one?
I went to five different salons. My family thought I was nuts. I was pretty much in tears saying, 'I'm not going to find a dress. Maybe I just won't get that feeling.' At the beginning I was trying on all different styles to see what I exactly wanted. Maybe trying on so many gowns led to frustration. Finally, I decided I wanted a satin fit and flare with glitz and a detailed back. I went to Charisol Bridal and my mother pulled a dress off the rack. When I looked at on the hanger I thought it was pretty but didn't get that feeling however, once I put the dress on and saw myself in the mirror I did.
Your dress is out there and you will get that feeling.
