    this may sound really stupid but i went to try on my dress the other day and i still absolutly love it ! the only thing is when i was trying it on it felt comfortable and it is a beautiful dress but i just dont feel beautiful. i had made a bit of an effort as i knew i was trying it on by putting a bit of make up on and wore my hair down as its always up and my mum and BM both said i looked really nice . i have since seen the pics my BM took and i just think who is that lump and why is she wearing that beautiful dress !!.

    have any of you had the same experience and did it turn out ok on the day ?

    Thank you x

    Yes that's how I feel in my dress, but I'm keeping positive that it all come together on the day!! Mine isn't the lump bit although I'm way from being skinny however the dress does pull me in but it's my face I've always felt ugly & I just think it doesn't go wiv such a pretty dress lol

    Oh hunni, I'm so sorry you feel like this. I hope that maybe you were just having an off day and if you tried it again you'll feel different. Can you remember the reason you chose the dress in the first place? How you felt and thought?

    Maybe the pictures aren't very good? Was it a camera phone? It's how you feel in it after all, and on the day you'll have proper photographers! Hope it all comes together for you xxx

    MRS B to Be - Unfortunately I can't post links to the forum but I have some links to some pictures that should make you feel better about the way look in your dress. If you accept my friend request I'll be able to post them to your wall.
    Remember there is a big difference from photos of you in your dress and professional photos taken on the day when your make up and hair is done and you have that bridal glow.

    Ah hun im sorry that you feel this way. I'm sure you look absolutely beautiful in it. If you have done your make up and hair different to how you usually have it maybe thats why you felt the reflection back wasn't as good as thought? Because its something your not used to rather than it didnt look great? I'm sure you did!

    Think about why you chose that dress, the feeling you had when you tried it on for the first time etc. Maybe it was an off day and next time will be completely different. Don't be disheartened or worried you will be fine on the day!!
    And just enjoy yourself xx
