Im a little nervous bec I may try on 1000 dresses an not like any of them. I know I have seen a ton of gowns through pics and they look like 'the one' but Iam afraid that if I see them in person I will hate them. First stop Amsale, sec stop Klenfields. Do I need to bring anything? Advice? Wish me luck

hmmm thats a bit big for you...usually you cant take it in more than 3 sizes so i would talk to her about that...what is your regular size, you seem very petite, wedding dress size will be bigger but even with that you are probably a 6-8

strapless bra and clean undies!

i would keep an open mind and try on anything and everything. all the pics i had pulled did not look good on me! i tried on every style and type of dress i could get my hands on - just to see which shape looked better on me, which turned out to be modified A line. From there, i only started to request modified A-line dresses and kept eliminating choices from there.

good luck and have fun!

wait...why wouldnt you already be wearing clean undies??

Re: Tomm I start my gown shopping.........

i've tried on at least 50-60 gowns so far and no luck.
while it's a little upsetting it's really not that big of a deal.
the right dress is out there so just make sure you keep calm.

i'd bring a bottle of water and a granola bar or something quick to snack on.
