when to buy my dress

So, I'm kind of new to this site, but have been looking at alot of what you girls are saying and you really know what you're talking about.

We're getting married next May, should I be looking for a dress already? I want to, but don't want to buy something now and then in 6 months see something that I like even more. Not sure what to do. Also the BMs keep asking when we're going to get their dresses, but I think i should get mine first?

You should go about 10 /12months before wedding. BM dresses can be done abotu 8 months before. Go at a pace you like. Dont worry about it. But its suggested in case any problem with the dress or just shipping.

Thanks, but now you make me nervous that you've already gotten yours. I think I'm going to give it till the end of the summer and then make a decision to go out and order it.

I definately think you should begin looking... it may or may not take you awhile to find the gown your love! better safe than sorry! some designers take longer to come in than others...

i got a 'twinge' LOL when i tried on the demetios that has the pleating on the bottom... the veil they put on me (dont have a pic of that) but the veil with it made ALL the difference and i just felt like great in it... I think im just too scared to make a decision and then possibly see something else i like down the road

not a dumb ?. click 'account' at the sort of top of the page. then on the right side click 'photo album' and you can add, delete and edit the albums/photos from there.

Re: when to buy my dress

Keep in mind every designer is diff. some take 6 months others 8. My friend ordered her dress in July for a April weddings. She got it in about 3 weeks before the wedding. I am ordering mine about 12 months before. The place I am getting my dress told me the Maggie dress take about 8 months if not more she takes awhile so watch out about that. Better alittle early then late!

the veil really does make a difference doesn't it? you can put a garbage bag on and look good, though, you have great figure! i wish i could look like that in dresses with those silhouettes.
