Dress Anxiety!!!
Hey Girls!
I was hoping someone out there can help me calm down. This is gonna be a long one lol So I went dress shopping with my mom and I told her right away ' I want a mermaid gown , lace, strapless'. I had to lay it on the table because my mother likes to take charge and make her own mind up. Anyway, I tried on about 6 gowns and we both cried etc.. They were all pretty and everything I wanted but then.... In the corner of my eye , spotted a ginormous poofy cinderella looking dress with a hint of lady Gaga lol It was so different. My mom made me try it on and holy cow I was like 'WOW'. Thats the only way I could explain how I felt. So I got on the phone and called my cousin. She came in and was shocked. She said it was gorgeous and majestic but wanted to know if this was really my decision or my mothers because she knows how she gets. So I tried the other pronovias (mermaid, strapless lace) dress on and it just seemed so plain after the other one . I was so upset because I didnt know what I wanted. I didnt know if iwas being convinced that I liked the dress or I really did love it. THe dress is a statement and I kind of feel weird being the center of attention lol Although it is my wedding day so I guess in some ways that is unavoidable. My mother puts down some money for a deposit.... I could not sleep all night. The next day I went back to the boutique, the designer of the gown happened to be there and she helped me try the dress on again. As soon as I put it on I got that 'WOW' feeling again! But now I keep watching all these stupid wedding shows and looking at all these magazines and im having anxiety I picked the wrong dress!! I can't even pick out a pair of socks, how am I supposed to pick a dress, the dress a year in advance!!!! I just feel like maybe I rushed into things because I only tried on 6 gowns and I went from wanting mermaid, lace and strapless to.... poofy, diamonds and straps lol!!! Anyone else feel like this or can share some advice??? Sorry I know that was holy canoli long!
