How many did you try on before you said “yes” to the dress?

    I easily tried on 30 dresses. This helped me find the different components to them that I loved, but nothing had everything I wanted, so I ended up going with custom made by Anomalie.

    I probably tried on 30 dresses. Didn’t keep count... but found the one. The dress assistant picked it and I was like ugh I’m not going to like this. But it was the one

    When my mom and I went to look at dresses, I had printed out the ones I liked the best from looking online and knew I wanted to see in person. It was about 7 and I did get to try all except for 1 they didn't have in stock at the time. But I did try 1 that wasn't on the list so 7 in all. The one I picked was much prettier in person and went the best with the theme of the wedding so I'm glad I was able to try it on. And it didn't need any alterations!

    Visited one shop and it was the second one I tried on. I credit the many episodes of “Say Yes to the Dress” for helping me be able to verbalize my vision haha!

    I believe it's a total of around 20 before I decided on a custom made dress

    I'm going next month, so zero for now. I'm a little anxious about buying one too soon and then loosing weight and it being too big

    I went to one store. My dress was the second one I tried on, although I did try about 5 more after it. I ended up putting my dress back on and realizing it was THE ONE.
