    You look beautiful. I’m not seeing what you’re seeing. Once you’re all done up, I bet you’ll love it again!

    I agree with PP! You look gorgeous and I love your dress. I think once you are all done up, you will love it like you did at first!

    Do you have your shoes, jewelry, veil (if your wearing one)? If so, bring that all with you so you can see it all together! When I went to pick up my dress I tried it on and kinda felt the same way you are feeling, but I know I love it and I am just trying to remember how I felt when I first bought it! When I have my first fitting next month, I am going to bring all of my accessories so I can envision the full look!

    I can not find shoes Smiley sad and I do have the jewelry and headband I got after my fitting! My veil is being made for me by my moms friends with lace from my moms wedding dress so I am not sure I will have it in time Smiley sad

    I am not seeing what you are seeing either. You look beautiful. I agree with pp's once you have your hair and makeup done up and your shoes and veil it will bring the whole look together.

    The only difference in pics I see is that it's bustled in the 2nd photo, which makes the shape look a tad different from the first of course. You look beautiful- don't even worry about it!

    I would suggest, if you are wearing heels, to definitely bring them, or something in similar height, because if they are hemming the dress at all you want to be sure it is the correct length! I think second guessing your dress is completely normal, so I would just try to focus on the other aspects of the wedding and try your best not to stress about it! I know that is easier said then done, but again you fell in love with your dress for a reason, and you will look amazing on your wedding day Smiley heart

    I don't notice a difference, I bet you're just being more picky! I loved my dress when I first ordered it, when it came in I wasn't as in to it. The following fitting, I was much happier!

    I personally thing it's stunning and you look gorgeous! I agree with PPs as well. Once you have all your hair and makeup done you'll feel the same way.

    I think you look fabulous as well- you're rocking that dress! I had my own wobble with the dress, but I honestly just think its because there is so much pressure on us to find the "perfect" dress, that we're bound to second guess our choice. It's a big decision. I fell back in love with my dress at my fitting, and I'm sure you will do too once you see the final look. Not that I think you need to at all, but if it will make you feel better for the big day, you could totally commit to a health kick until your wedding- though honestly, the only change you need to achieve is one in your head.


    You look great! xxxxxxxxx
