How did you pick your dress

I have 3 dresses that i love... all for different reasons, yet they are all similar.. i can not decide... what made you pick your dress/your deciding factor?!?!

Re: How did you pic your dress

Actually I fell inlove with two. One was an aline halter and the other strapless mermaid style. I didn't want strapless but the aline was too poofy on me it just was too big for me. (I'm small) We went on a saturday the store was crowded because of the trunk show. My sales lady said 'we have an audience' lets let the people decide. Which they see you, your body type and the dress. I put on the halter every liked it, I came out in the strapless and everyone applauded. People actually came up to my mom with tears in there eyes. That is how i decided. Good luck.
P S My sister also thought I was trying to change the halter dress to much to make it straighter.

I really liked two - but the one I choose was a bit lighter and I thought it would be better for a day wedding.

ETA - I also knew it was the one because I was dying to put it back on after I had tried on a few other ones.

I feel in love with 3 and then narrowed it down and knew which one I loved after trying them on a few times.

Re: How did you pick your dress

My search narrowed down to two dresses and I knew one of them would be it. The final decision was made by the way I felt in the dress. Each time I put it on, I just felt magic. It was one of the first ones I tried but I kept looking because I wanted to satisfy myself that there was nothing else out there that I might love more. Every time I went back and tried it on, I had that same great feeling. That's how I knew.

Re: How did you pick your dress

I just tried on a bunch of different dresses looking for the one that looked the best on me and I just knew when I tried on the one I wound up getting.

I really liked 3 but when I kept trying them on one of them I liked more and more everytime. So I ordered it.

Re: How did you pick your dress

I just knew as soon as i saw it, that it was going to be the one. And when I put it on I cried.

I was looking for a while but hadn't fallen in love. When i put my dress on, i just knew it was the one. I know it sounds cliche, but its so true!

Re: How did you pick your dress

well, my experience was different than yours. My dress was the ONLY dress I put on that I loved. I hated everything else.

My dress is flattering, just the right amount of beadwork and the fabrics that I love. When I put it on I knew it was the one immediately!

Re: How did you pick your dress

I'm weird! I didn't try on any dresses. I picked the only one that caught my eye and bought it. I'm kind of sorry I didn't go through the entire dress trying on process because there are a lot of gorgeous gowns out there!

Good luck in making your final decision!

Re: How did you pick your dress

I was so fed up with trying on dresses that I kind of just said, 'ok, this one will do...'

I know that's terrible, but I LOVE the dress now, and am so happy I picked it...

Re: How did you pick your dress

I saw a dress in someone's wedding album at Silverfox, I found the dress on their website, copied a picture, posted on here, got the designer from someone - Monique Lhuillier, and then SEARCHED for the exact dress with sleeves, and then an ANGEL (known as Adina - aka HOCUS) found it for me!

This is where I am at, but I really don't want to do that. I just wish i could find a store that has all 3 of the ones i like so i can try them all on at once instead of bouncing from store to store on differnt days... it is not easy comparing them that way... Everywhere i go they keep saying you'll know... i think i have tried on every dress possible, not kidding... over 60!

Re: How did you pick your dress

I was at the Bridal Salon, after trying about 30 dresses, my mom pointed one out so I tried it on and I loved it! The funny thing is I had seen it before and I was interested. Then when I tried it on, I feel in love with it!
