Doubts about my dress

Alycia , on October 30, 2017 at 10:21 PM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 19

I went dress shopping with my mom and sisters. 3 most opinionated people I know so they were going to tell me when something doesn't look well. I ended up picking the 1st one I tried on and I loved it, but I sometimes I have doubts about it. I want a little more bling on it. Do any of you have doubts about your dress after you buy it?

    Ooo that dress is so pretty! You can always add some bling with jewelry or a headband or something like that

    ETA: answering the actual question...no I haven't doubted my dress but I think it's helped that I didn't look at more dresses after picking out mine

    I had doubts when I bought my dress....I had settled for it because the price was right. No matter what, I my heart kept telling me I wasn't happy....so today I went and exchanged my dress for the one I originally wanted. A dress that has fluff and sparkle! I feel like switching dress3s is the best decision and I'm so in love

    I was feeling the same way and had similar opinionated people at mine! But every time I doubt myself I look at pictures and fall right back in love!! I have been learning once you make a decision you can't go back and look more! Even things on Pinterest or wedding magazine. If I am looking for ideas or inspiration I ignore the dress completely! That way I don't start to play a weird game in my head that could could around and around!

    Your dress is absolutely gorgeous!

    I don't have a dress yet, I won't have one for a while, but I'm sure at some point I might encounter doubts.

    Oh, that's beautiful. Yeah, I've second thought my dress. I'm trying not to think about it, though.

    I still have doubts because I was torn between two dresses. The one I picked is great though. Yours is beautiful! I think it's totally normal to have all kinds of doubts.

    I work in the industry - and I got dress regret. I will say your gown looks incredible on you!

    I think dress regret is normal because we are presented with so many choices, how do we pick just one? Bling can be added, add a belt, a tiara, nice jewelry. Or, you can ask the seamstress how much it would cost to sew some bling on the bodice perhaps.

    I doubt mine all the time but then I think I picked it for a reason and once alterations are done I should feel better.

    I agree bling can be added in so many ways! A belt, jewelry, if you're crafty or know a seamstress you could hand place swarovski crystals here and there on the dress - the pattern lends itself to that .

    But even without the bling I think it's beautiful and you look great in it!

    It's gorgeous! Try it back on, delete pics of you in other dresses, and start adding sparkle with your jewelry and veil. You look gorgeous!

    Alycia, I tried that dress on and it is gorgeous! It was actually one of my top picks. The details in that dress were so beautiful and unique compared to the other dresses I tried on that day. Some bridal shops (and depending on the seamstress) will add some beading throughout on some dresses! That may be an option you can ask the shop about!

    It's a very pretty dress but could definitely use a little "oomph." Agree with the other posters, add a sparkly belt, as well as a blingy necklace OR sparkly drop earrings and add some sparkle to your hair with a headband or hairpiece.
