Re: how many dresses ....

I went to one shop and tried on about 6-7 and 1 stood out for me.. and I loved it.. Then I went to another store later that day to look at BM's gowns and tried on a similar dress and my mom said 'oh my god' when I came out in it.. and I have been thinking about it and went back to the store to try it on again and fell in love with it.. So I am going to the Demetrios salon to try it on again and a couple of others and then making my decision!!!

Re: how many dresses ....

ug, I must have tried on dozens of dresses... I went to like 4 or 5 different stores... I actually found the dress I LOVED pretty early on, but it was expensive so I wanted to keep looking and make sure it was worth the price. In the end I decided it was (I pretty much hated everything else I tried on), but it took me a while to get there.

Re: how many dresses ....

i tried 7 dresses on at the first store and 10 dresses at the second store...I have one that I liked from both...but I am still going to look....one of the dresses is pretty pricey so If i do decide to get that one...I am saving money aside from each paycheck for the dress...so for me...I dont mind if i dont get the dress right now....

also Once you get the dress thats it...no more trying on dresses...and that is my favorite part...its so much fun....I dont want it to end!!! so i have to say that when I do find my dress.....fun time is over for me!!!

Re: how many dresses ....

HA, I went to about 7-8 different stores, trying on probably anywhere from 10-20 dresses in each place, so - yeah alot... the first couple of times were the most productive, cause I realized that what I thought I wanted, I didn't actually like on me... then i coudlnt' find anything that 'hit me' and got frustrated, so I took a hiatus, then I went back to trying, and ended up between 2. So again, hiatus, then I found one that I liked, which was basically a combination of the two I had been between.

It was tiring, But in the end, I'm happy with what I got, and refuse to look at any other dress

Re: how many dresses ....

I tried on about 12 dresses. And it was the last one that I fell in love with and had to have.

Re: how many dresses ....

I would say I probably tried on about 15-20....even though I knew which dress was mine after about the 8th dress...I just wanted to keeptrying them on since I will never be able to do this again..lol

Re: how many dresses ....

I'm having this big dress problem right now, my best friend advised me to wait until about 6 months before the wedding and I went on the excitement and ordered a dress that I am not 100% about. I looked at at least 20 dresses so far and I'm really undecided, I would wait until it's close to the wedidng to decide thatw ay we won't have time to keep looking at other dresses...lol

Re: how many dresses ....

One. I tried on a dress I had fallen in love with in a magazine, and knew that was it.

I thin proceded to go and try on about 15-20 more dresses, just to be sure, but that first dress was always the front runner.

Re: how many dresses ....

I bought the third dress I tried on, at the first store I went to. Although, I have to say, I was pretty securein what I wanted, as far as knowing what kind of cuts and styles would be most flattering.
