Thanks :) I'm going to try few different shops and maybe go back to them with my maid of honor and mum and see how I feel about them x
Oh no that is a pain that they are in different shops; you need to look in other shops but keep them in mind if you don't find any others that catch your eye. I was fortunate enough to only have to go in one shop to find mine. I'm sure you'll know when you find the one whether it is one of those three dresses or not.

I think you just have to try them on again and some different ones. I really thought I had found my dream dress but then tried on another and knew straight away it was the one, so as you have time I'd keep looking x

I think you need to try them all again and 1 May stick out more than the other.....
My first dress I loved and then after trying on the one I bought, I hated it lol xx You will get there

Without blowing my own trumpet as am not skinny but so many looked beautiful on and just seemed to fit with my pear shape and show off my curves its so hard deciding on the one. And I'm a night are I hate trying stuff on although do love trying the dresses on lol. Just hard trying to plan around mum and moh. Have been to a fair today so have few new places to try and just want to go now lol x

You might find that when trying on another dress somewhere else, you suddenly think "Oh my God, those other 3 were awful, this is the one!" Enjoy the dress shopping for as long as you possibly can, I say! :P xx

Definitely try them again and also take photos of yourself in every dress. I tried this amazing dress and thought it was the one! THen tried 3 more in the same shop and liked 2 of them quite a lot. As I really liked the first one, I tried it on again and didnt like it as much.. I didnt love it as much. Anyway had a look at photos my mum took of me in all the dress and some of them didnt look great in photos (e.g. you couldnt see all the lovely details) but the other 2 look great so I'll definitely be taking that into consideration as well when choosing my dress - Hope this helps!

Thanks ladies, tried some more on today and liked them more than the ones before and up til now spent no longer than a few mins in a dress and today I wore one for ages then wore the next one for ages too and put first one back on which I thought was a contensant and turned out it wasn't that time lol. Strange how feeling towards a dress can change just by trying a nicer dress on lol. Going to try two more shops then go back to my favourite I think x

It can be quite confusing .. everything I tried on I liked, everything suited me , I thought how am I going to choose.. but if you just relax about it and know that you don't have to choose Just yet right this week, it helps.. I found an amazing dress that I loved and thought this is it, I went home asked my friend if she will come see it the following week. we went and I loved it just as much. so I told the lady I will have it and that my dad will send payment later and I signed a form, I was on a high so excited about this dress. Got in the car and I had a niggle, I was 99 percent sure this was the one.. but all of a sudden 1 percent was saying are you sure you want this style.. it drove me mad as I was like oh no its such a big decision and I knew I Loved this dress. anyway, so I left it for a week as at end of day the dress isn't going anywhere, I know where it is.. ha.. I was driving along and asked my angels to please help me, then I found myself booking an app at another shop that happened to be called Angel Face !! I tried on some dresses and none came close to my dream dress then the lady said what about this and I said oooh no, but I will try it on for a laugh.. and I put it on and I was like OMG.. it was totally opposite other one and I would never of picked it.. and I knew that this is it, and I put deposit on and just knew.. but it felt odd as I always imagined I would be in this princess style dress... I always remember what the lady in the shop said, she hit the nail on the head.. she said you want your dress to be you, your style , but you also want to look like you have never looked before.. and bang.. she was so right, this dress made me look like I have never looked before, ....and I realised in the other dress I felt princess girly and fun , but this other one I felt like a woman , and sexy.. so went for it , I still love the other dress just as much, but It made me realise that I want to feel like a woman on my wedding day not a girly princess. anway, all I saying is, think about how you want to look and feel .. sooooo exciting isn't it.. good luck, let us know how you get on ! :)
Soooooo excited to be marrying my Best Friend !!

Thanks Hun, everything you said matches how I feel exactly lol, everything looked lovely on and I was swaying towards the princess looking dresses but actually have fallen in love with a slimming tight dress that shows off my curves and makes me feel so beautiful and slim and like you said like a woman, I'm guna go try a few more on and then will go back and try the ones I loved today and see if I still love them. I'm just so worried about making a mistake as its important part of the day and its a lot of money to be playing with. I haven't thought about asking for some guidance, will defo be doing it, usually I ask when I'm in the car so will when I think about the dress I want. I think we grow up wanting the big puffy princess dress as its 'what a wedding dress is' but when It come to trying them on as much as I felt like a pretty princess I didn't feel like me or feel different to other people x
CommentAuthorEmmaG
I was the same, worried about making a mistake , but the min I found my one.. there was not a doubt in my mind.. I walked away ecstatic and 100 percent knew I wouldn't worry about it since.. and I haven't.. you will be like that too im sure, you will know its perfect as there will be no more worrying or questioning it.. :)
