So, my wedding is over a year out..457 days to be exact.

I have already purchased my gown...it was delivered last week and i picked it up sunday.

While getting my dress i found my veil and purchased it. And while at a renn fair the day before i purchased the head piece / tiara i would be wearing for both the ceremony and possible reception.

Now i just have to hide the dress and the veil from my fiance. He actually picked out my head pieces with me.

Is this normal? Or am i just way ahead of the curve in wedding stuff?

I have my dress too. I purchased it in March and my wedding is August 2020. I think you are fine to have it early if you love it. I was concerned at first but I got a really good deal so I went with it.

Its great you've found your dress so early! Its better to be early than late! Since it is so early you will have to hide it from your fiancé for a while. My wedding is in 100 days exact and I only picked my dress up 2 weeks ago.

My wedding is 10/10/20. I bought my dress like last august! I just definitely will not be going to try on any more dresses so that I don't change my mind. But I loooove my dress.

That's super exciting! My wedding isn't until Sept 2020 and I've had my dress since January 2018! There were a lot of people that said I bought my dress to early and that I will get "dress regret" but, I still love my dress just as much as when I bought it!

Not weird. I'm around 450 days out and have my dress. I mean, my dress is estimated to take 6 to 10 months to make, but even if you have yours in hand it's fine.

Just do not look at more dresses or you may end up with regret!
