I've been to 5 bridal salons, some great experiences and some not. I can't for the life of me decide on a dress!!!
I'm not very emotional, so i'm not sure i'll have that 'this is it' feeling. I've thought I found it, but then i'd leave and be scared about committing or keep wanting to look. I think I found (for the 3rd time, all different dresses). It my 2nd visit to Bridal Reflections in Carl Place...i'm going back with my dad and sisters on Tuesday to make sure. But now that i'm looking at it online, and in the picture...i'm not 100% sure, and 10000 things are running through my head!!!
I don't think i'll ever be 100% sure about any dress..i'm so incredibly indecisive and scared I won't choose the best. I'm getting really discouraged!!
Any suggestions on how I should go about this?

Wedding dress anxiety!!!
Do not stress. I felt the same was as you. I tried on over 55 dresses & went to 5 shops and one of them twice. I kept finding dresses I 'really liked' but non that I 'loved'. Dont settle. You will know when it's the dress. I didn't cry but I just knew. Sounds cheesy but I promise you'll know.

I don't know if you will really KNOW. Some people don't ever get that feeling. So I wouldn't wait around and try on a ton of dresses just to get that feeling. I never really got that feeling, so it's ok. Just when you do decide on your dress, stop looking at other dresses. I'm sure whatever you choose will be beautiful though.

I can totally empathize with being afraid to commit to a dress. I've been that way with most of the decisions I've made about this wedding so far and am always second guessing myself.
I went to 4 stores and tried on about 2 dozen dresses in total. I didn't cry when I chose my dress, but I did get a good feeling about it. And it made me feel pretty and elegant and comfortable. So, I said yes. Of course, there will be other dresses that turn my head, but my dress is very 'me' and I'm happy that I made the decision.
I think if a dress makes you feel really beautiful, and you can envision yourself walking down the aisle in it, you should take the leap and buy it. Trust your instincts and you can't go wrong!

Thanks for the support girls! When I had this one dress that I think is the one, our song came on...and I was like 'this is a sign!!'
We'll see how I feel when I go back tomorrow.

Wedding dress anxiety!!!
omg, we are soooo in the same position!! I'm having so much anxiety over my dress. My mother put some money down on a dress I picked at david's bridal but now I'm having doubts since its very different from what I pictured. So I'm still shopping around. Good luck girl! I know how hard it is.
