I FOUND THE DRESS!!

Original post by nocode

i was having allot of fun with all the wedding planning until i started dress shopping.....i just cant seem to find something i like. I dont know if anyone can relate to this or not but i just feel like i wasnt cut out for all this...i mean all i want to do is marry my best friend in the whole world that i love more than life...i didnt want all the pomp and circumstance its just not me, i kinda got into all of it looking at pictures and talking to people and reading all your posts but since ive started looking for dresses i realized that its just not me...i like plain simple things, i guess im kinda still the little jock girl that i was as a kid and i havent seen a dress that is ME, and to make it worse i get all jammed up trying them on (to make it worse i have a nervous laugh) and im open to things that the ladies pick out and bring me even though i wouldnt have picked them out but when they see that i dont like them they seem to get annoyed at me one of them acutally told me 'i don't knwo what you wna t we dont do plain these are wedding dresses come back when your serious and not just playing dress up' i dont know im just worries that now its 9months away and i still havent even seen anything that i really love like not even online or a mag...sorry for the vent i just had to get it out

ETA: I FOUND IT!!!! forst thank youall for all your support i was feeling pretty bad about this whole thing last night....and thanx to my amazing FSIL and BM she called and made an appointment at Bridal Couture of Manhassette and we met with Darlene I showed her some dresses I liked that I saw online and a few in a magazine that nicole and I had picked, basically she let me look around and pick out what i liked and nicole picked out a few too. anyways the one that darlene picked out was exactly what i had in mind it was kind of a combo of this maggie sottero and jim heljm dress that i liked but i liked the top of one and the bottom of the other, anyway i put it on and just got a HUGE smile right away i finally felt great in a wedding dress!! and she was so cool about not pushing it i tried on a few other that just werent me and before i left i put the first one on again and i new it was just right....i was gong to wait to put money down on it, but when i told my parents they were so excited that we went back and i put it on a 3rd time and i still loved it so that was it i put the down payment on it and i guess ill see it again in july...lol anyways my mom and dad took tons of pictures at the place when i had the sample on so when i get those from them ill put them up! thanx again girls

You will know your dress when you see it, believe me when I tell you, you'll know it.
