I went to about 6 stores and tried on at least 50. I never the feeling that 'this is the one' but I found a few I loved and finally decided which one I love mosted. lol



I did the same thing....after awhile you get too burnt out and that tends to cloud your judgment....I kept thinking, well what if 'the one' is in another store I haven't checked yet?

At some point, you have to say enough is enough!

I went shopping in January 2003 for my 2004 wedding. It was so quiet in the salon. I had tried on about 30 something dresses but it was really the first dress I put on.

I was REALLY dreading going to try on dresses I flipped through A LOT of mags and cut out a couple that I loved. Once looking at those I knew which was a my favorite. I decided to try that one on first so that I could get motivated!!! As soon as I tried it on I knew!!! I tried on more after that but I just ordered #1 on Sat!!!

I think I tried on over 30 dresses in a one month period The dress I thought was THE one, was vetoed by my mom and FSIL and the 2nd choice was voted hands down the best... but you have plenty of time! Just keep looking around and take notes - you'll end up trying on so many that you'll forget where you saw it!

I only tried on 2 more cause my MOH couldn't be away to long from her baby (she had a boy on 2/2). so we only stayed about 30 min or so. i tried on the 2 the lady brought me. i put them on and i couldn't get them off soon enought to put the one i tried on 2 weeks ago to show her. when i put it on she said 'don't look any further'. she fell in love with it. I just stood there in the gown for 10 min just staring at myself. guess thats the sign. i will try to attach it to get some opinions. if i saw this gown in a magazine or on the internet, i would have never had tried it on. it looks better on me than in a picture.

the picture is in ivory, but i will be getting white.
