Sometimes I feel ......

Sometimes I feel ......

to my stomach like I picked the wrong wedding gown. I keep thinking about the first dress that I fell in love with that I didn't end up getting.
The first one was an Oleg Cassini dress that had all sparkle on the top and tulle on the bottom...it was totally ME. The dress I bought is Demetrios A-line with satin skirt with detail on the top, bottom, and train. The one I have is really gorgeous but for some reason I keep thinking of the first one...especially since I saw it at Davids Bridal the other day when I was looking at Veils.
Does anyone ever feel like this about the decisions they made?

Re: Sometimes I feel ......

I haven't chosen my gown yet but I am facing a dilemma exactly like the one you describe. I have two gowns in mind - one is just like the first one you described and the other is more like the second one. I'm leaning more toward the first one but the second one is just so beautiful. I wish I could have them both! For your situation, if you still feel this way in a while, maybe you could go and try on the Oleg Cassini dress one more time and see if you really like it more than the one you decided on. If so, maybe you could make some arrangements to switch the order, especially if they are at the same place.

Isn't it such a hard decision!!!!!!

Well I ordered my gown from Burtons and the other dress is from Davids Bridal. I know it is too late now to switch ....maybe that is why I can't get this out of my mind!

YOU must have loved the dress you ordered, or you wouldn't have ordered it. Go back and try it on again and remember how beautiful you look and feel in it!!

I think about my gown all the time. Hoping I don't find something else I like better. I knew my dress looked great on me, but wasn't 100% in love unfortunately. My sister was in love, so I went with it. Don't get me wrong I dolove it, but I didn't get any funky feelings about it being 'the one and only' if you know what I mean. I think you're going to second guess everything at one point or another. I even second guess some vendors. But, too late now...

Oh, its so hard because so many brides say you just know when you find your dress but I never got that feeling. My dress, although I think beautiful, has everything I was looking for at the price I could afford. There were tons others out there and especially ones that I've seen on this website that I would've loved but the truth was, you pick your dress for a reason. I totally think its normal to have second doubts but I wouldn't let it stress you out too much.....

I feel the same way!!! I am second guessing the color of my dress. I ordered it in Diamond White, but now wish I would have gotten it in Ivory. I never even thought about getting Ivory at the time because the woman at the bridal salon who was helping me never mentioned that it came in that color!!!

I am hoping that I will love my dress when I try it on again!!!

Good luck - I am sure the dress you chose looks amazing on you!!! There's a reason you chose it!!!

Yes I felt the same way just last night!! I was almost in tears!!

I actually wasn't given a choice, because although I liked my dress and had to admit it made me look great, I wasn't in love with it. By the time I took off the dress and got upstairs, my parents had placed the deposit, so I was stuck. My name is nowhere on the paperwork or receipt!!! If I get a new dress now, my father is out $700.

So do what I did, go back to your original posting when you said you found your dress and remember again the excitement you felt when you ordred it!!

I felt the exact same way until the day of my wedding when people were raving over my dress. I know it is hard, I was there, but on the day of, everything falls together and you will be gorgeous!
