Settling on the Dress

Original post by Bridex100

I feel like I may have to because my wedding is 6 months away and I have to order soon. I've been putting it off because I haven't found the 'ONE' dress. I'm beginning to think the 'ONE' doesn't exist.

Did anyone feel like they settled on their dress?

I have been looking at higher priced dresses. $4-7k.

I am finding that I like the styles of lower priced alternatives. Perhaps that was my mistake.

Since you do have a hefty budget, you have a lot to choose from. Just because it's only $500 doen't mean that you can't get it because you have a bigger budget... you just saved $4500!!! Keep looking, it's out there. Good luck!

with your budget, you could probably get a dress made for you. if you know what you like but can't find everythiing all in one dress take it to a designer and have them design and sew a dress for you. I don't know of any names offhand, but I am sure there are many designers out there who can do this for you.

The more expensive the dress doesn't make it 'prettier' Look at everything - the high and the low. You might be shocked and find something under $1,000 - and just think you $4,000 or more to spend on your honeymoon, or furniture, or rent or anything else!

I felt the same exact way as you until yesterday!!! I ve have been searching since February and never found anything that felt like the one. Over the summer I liked Maggie Sottero Vincenza. Then when I went back to show my mother, grandma, and aunts, we all hated it on me. I was soo frustrated,,,and wedding dress shopping was not fun for me anymore. I hated it!!! I made appointments for just about every dress store on the island. Could not find ANYTHING!! Then yesterday I went to Bridal Reflections in Massapequa. I took one step into the place and saw this dress hanging on a hanger,,and I said to the saleslady that I NEED TO TRY THAT ON!!! Well it was 'the one.' People from all around the store came to look at me in it and said that it made me shine! The dress was totally me and I felt like my 10 month headache was worth it! Im ordering it on Thursday,,if I cant find it anywhere else for cheaper! I know its annoying to keep searching,, but I have faith that you'll eventually find it!!!
