Anyone having dress regrets?

So my dress should be in any day now and I can't help but think maybe I made a mistake. Has this happened to anyone else? I feel like I might of just picked it b/c of how much my sister and mom loved it. I always had envisioned a trumpet style and it's a a-line also we're getting married in the...

So my dress should be in any day now and I can't help but think maybe I made a mistake. Has this happened to anyone else? I feel like I might of just picked it b/c of how much my sister and mom loved it. I always had envisioned a trumpet style and it's a a-line also we're getting married in the Dominican Republic and it's sort of heavy so I'm worried I'll be really hot. I thought about taking out some of the crinolin to help with heat, do you think it would look right still? Also, those who had dress regret, what did you do about it? Ahhh! I don't want to be feeling like this! I really really hope once I put it on again I remember why I picked it...

    I started to wonder if my dress had too much going on. But, now, when I start to feel that way, I go look at it, and remember how much I love it. Everyone else wanted me to go with a different, more traditional dress, however, I didn't let their opinions sway me. And, then I knew i made the right decision when I took my sister in to see it, and she almost cried when she saw me. But, I think a reception dress would be great for you! You look amazing in that dress, and it is beautiful. I'm sure when it comes in and you put it on again, you will love it.

    **Raises hand furiously** Yes, I'm having MAJOR dress regrets but was too chicken to admit it publicly. LOL! I have been shopping for months, had four different appointments, tried on countless gowns, took tons of photos, spent hours and hours shopping on line. I finally found one, or so I thought. I did place the order with a non-refundable deposit but I was fine with that because I was so sure...until I got home and looked at the photos. I have a classic hourglass figure and I love how this style really defines my curves, but I'm not crazy about the skirt and the wayward ruffles. I'm still torn between this one and another one. I'll definitely purchase the dress but may end up trying to sell it. It is a Spring 2011 style and if I don't alter it in any way, maybe I'll luck out. Maybe not. Your dress looks amazing on you though! Yes, I'm hoping once you have it back on, you will remember why you chose it. Best of luck! Let us know how it all turns out!
