Do all brides cry when they find their wedding dress?

So I am second guessing the dress that I chose because I did NOT cry when I put it on. I think maybe I watched one too many episodes of ‘Say Yes To The Dress’ lol. I always cried with the brides on the show but didn’t when it was my turn. I love the dress I chose and I can’t wait to wear it but I...

I love the dress I chose and I can’t wait to wear it but I just can’t help but wonder why I didn’t have that emotional moment. Perhaps what I see on tv is not what really happens in real life?

    Nope! I didn't cry at all! My mum sure did though!! LOL I think once you pick it up and really get into it I think you may have that emotional reaction to it but even if you don't as long as you love the dress and can't imagine being without it on your special day I think that's what matters!

    I’ve been to two different dress places and although I found some pretty dresses I’m worried I won’t get that crying moment. I’m not easy to impress so this dress is going to be difficult to find

    Not everyone has that emotional response to their wedding dress. If you love it and can't wait to wear it, then it's the dress for you. Some people just don't respond like they do on TV and that's ok.

    I think I will cry too when I actually pick it up and picture myself in it as well. I don’t think your husband would have cared what kind of dress you had on lol but I am sure seeing you in a dress made his day!!!!

    I think I am not easy to impress either that’s why I didn’t have an emotional moment. Good luck with finding your dress and if you don’t cry at the fitting, you will probably cry once you but it on on your wedding day.

    Perhaps it only happens like that mostly on tv based on these responses. Thank you!

    Yea, he didn't care about the dress as much as I did during the planning process. At that point he said he wanted me to be surprised. We joke that he married me in a burlap sack and I could rock a burlap sack. He said I could but please don't wear a burlap sack.
    He was surprised and held back tears. He said I looked beautiful and he can't get over it.

    Nope no tears here either. Just a big grin and how I felt pleased with the look. The other dresses I tried were nice, but I I noticed aspects of the dress versus seeing myself in the mirror.

    I'm not a crier and I didn't cry when I found my dress. It's amazing, I LOVE it, I didn't want to take it off. But I could try on every dress in the world and would only end up crying out of sheer exhaustion.

    I didn't cry. I didn't really love it. I just bought it because it was good enough, and it wasn't heavy at all!

    I didn't cry when I said Yes to the Dress. I definitely got the feeling of this is it but I didn't cry. I do however think that I may cry once the final fitting is complete and I am all dolled up lol

    I am a VERY sappy, emotional person and i maybe shed 2 tears. I was happy and I love my dress, but it didn't make me really cry. That doesn't mean we picked the wrong dresses!
