Changed my mind about my dress...

I actually had the exact same experience as you. I went to davids bridal the first time for my dress and took my aunt, my mom, FMIL, and 1 of my bridesmaids. I said yes to the dress and a week later I hated it. So I went back to davids bridal and only took my mom and I cried and had my bridal moment

Yep! Had the same experience. I lost about $450 in the process, but in the end, I'm am so happy!

Yep. I originally went shopping on Mother's Day at David's with my mom, two aunts, my two sisters, and my daughter. I really liked two dresses on the website but I could only find the one to try on and when I did it fit very nicely. I just couldn't shake the other dress that I hadn't gotten to try on. I had my dress almost two months when I found the other dress to try on. I went with a really good friend and fell in love with dress two. The first is the original and the second is my new dress.

Yes. I bought a dress that I thought would suit me, beachy and all that. It had no lace.

I bought this dress 6 months before the wedding, then with about 3 months left to go, I wanted to alter it and add a lace train. I basically hated it. Discovering I couldn't transform this dress on my own, I went to meet a freelance seamstress to see what she could do. She actually had a dress for sale that was in my size, a lace train, and a sweetheart cut like I wanted. I tried it on and I cried in the public bathroom at my local YMCA with her. She's now altering the dress and it will be ready in a few days. Great times.

Yes, it happened to me as well. In the beginning, I figured I could not order a dress since I had only 5 months to plan my wedding. I went alone to an appointment and I was pressured by 4 sales people to order a dress that day or I would run out of time. I did it and by the next day I regretted it!!

I was able to work it out with the store and then 2 weeks later I found the perfect dress for me. I just LOVE it & know that my FH will just tear up when he sees me walk down the aisle

Yes! I found my dress when I went looking alone, it was something I wouldn't have tried on bc my daughters wanted me in ruffles and what was't ruffles they would just be like oh its ok. I bought the dress I tried on and was like I LOVE this dress without any other people's opinion. When I went with them to try it on so they can see it and buy it, they were just happy I loved it

There are times when I wonder if I should have looked more. But then I just rationalize that this is one dress that I will only wear for one day for a few hours. The dress isn't important enough for me to over think it. It is flattering and timeless, that's all that really matters to me.

Happens all the time. I think you did right by going back with less people. so happy you found THE dress! it's great!

changed my mind after buying a dress? no. change my mind while designing my dress? you bet! I finally gave up on the plan of cutting the dress 6 months in advance. I cut it a week ago just like I planned. big reason was I was loosing a lot of weight, had I cut the dress back then I'd have to do major alterations anyway. worse than making a new dress.

break over, back to the dress!

Btw- whose the designer???

I hear you @Riki. I do feel like I went to too many stores and tried on way too many dresses because it started to cloud my judgment! In the end, I'm glad I kept searching because in my heart I knew I wasn't genuinely happy with my decision.

@StitchingBride the designer is Pnina Tornai

Love your pick @Lawmom
