Bought the dress, need reassurance!!!

Ka-Rina, on September 23, 2019 at 3:14 PM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 15
Okay might be a tad long but here it is. Husband and I are throwing a party for our 5th anniversary. We only did the court house part when we actually got married so I am viewing this as our wedding. Anyway...I was supposed to go dress shopping with my mom a month from now but last week I just needed to do something fun and exciting and a salon by my house had an opening so I went by myself. I had no inclination to buy anything 1. Because I was by myself and 2. Because I know the salon is really expensive and in no way did I want to spend more than $1000 (over the phone they said their gowns start at $1300).
So of course #3 I put on takes my breath away. It was nowhere near what I thought I'd pick. I tried on maybe 15 other dresses. Not one came even close. Anyway... Icing on the cake was that it was a pronovias gown originally $2500 but a sample dress going for...$400!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I put it on twice and every time I just gasped..I walked around in it..saw it in all kinds of lighting...it is nothing what I thought it'd be but it made me feel so amazing. And I bought it Smiley smile

I guess I'm looking for some reassurance as it might have been a more spontaneous purchase than I had expected...

    It is gorgeous on you!!! If you find a dress that makes you gasp AND you compare all other dresses to it, you have found the one. The fact that you got such a great deal on it makes it even better in my opinion. I'd be excited too!

    Thank you! I guess a part of me wants to look "stunning" not "pretty" and that's where the internal conundrum comes in lol

    You are beautiful. That's something you have to feel within. A million people can say it and if you don't feel it yourself, its in one ear and out the other dear. I'm sure on that special day, you will feel it and look it.
