how far in advance are you getting your gown?

Re: how far in advance are you getting your gown?

I'm thinking May or June which gives me about a year. I have this fear of picking out a dress, buying it and then finding something I like more.
If I could get by with ordering it one month before I would!

Re: how far in advance are you getting your gown?

lol mine is already bought and in!! they are keeping it in storage for me until our wedding. i wasn't planning on buying it so far in advance but when i saw it (without even going to look for a dress) i fell in love with it-- what can i say?

so i ordered it last feb/march-ISH i think if my memory is correct-- somewhere around then. my taste is pretty traditional so i don't have to worry about it going 'out of style' or anything like that.

Re: how far in advance are you getting your gown?

Wedding is in about a little less than 11 months - so I hope to place a dress order by the LATEST the first week of may. I have only gone once - to RK Bridal so far. Plan to go the next couple of weekends too.

Re: how far in advance are you getting your gown?

I am bugging out!!! I'm getting married in January of 07 and I still haven't found i dress i absolutely fell in love with!

i have only 9 months left!!!! Am i in big trouble!??!?!?!?!?

I actually found a jasmine dress i liked online, i am away on business and wont be able to try it on anytime soon so i called RK bridal and asked if it was going to be a problem ordering my dress in such short notice....and the guy told me to CALM Down! Not at all!!

Who knows! is anyone else getting a jasmine dress?? if so...how long did it take to come in!??!!?

Deep breaths! :) Dont worry, you can do this as soon as 3 months before the wedding. LI brides tend to get so excited about this stuff we all jump on it early



Im waiting until this fall because I want to lose some weight and won't know what my body will be like in 10 months!

Re: how far in advance are you getting your gown?

If you are sure you find the one then order it but it must be the one....it takes a while to come in well at least mine they told me it takes about 9-10months from the date i ordered it.

Re: how far in advance are you getting your gown?

i ordered mine in Dec... I fell in love with it.. what can I say?? (people tell me I'm crazy) but if you love it, you love it.. plus it's always good to go around and get ideas.. not like I did or anything though.. I found it while 'browsing' and ordered it that afternoon..

Re: how far in advance are you getting your gown?

I started looking in February and since then have tried on about 50 dresses, but I am totally in love and infatuated with the third dress I tried on. I'm not going to put the order in until May just because I have to save to put 50% down and beside my wedding isn't until April 2007 so I still have plenty of time.

Still, a little part of me wants to continue dress shopping just because its so much fun! And although I'm 99.9% sure that thats My Dress, I still wonder if there is something else for me. Especially because my mom doesn't like it. (see topic ' My mom hates my dress'

Re: how far in advance are you getting your gown?

I ordered mine already- started looking in January and bought it in February-- we are getting married Feb 2007!

Re: how far in advance are you getting your gown?
