    I would say I tried on about 40 to 50 dresses. I went to about 4 different stores. At the first store about I was stuck in between two different dresses (loved pieces of both). I was so indecisive at that moment and a bit overwhelmed. And since I couldn't decide, I thought it would be best to go elsewhere and try others. It didn't work and I couldn't stop thinking about one dress I tried. I went back to the first store and tried the two I was debating between on. I had no doubt that the one dress I kept thinking about was the dress!

    I went to 3 dress boutiques and loved every one I tried on in the first boutique (6), did not like every dress in the second (5) and liked some of the dresses in the third (6) - I tried on the same dress at boutique one and three and went back to the first place to buy it - it was the third dress I tried on and completely different than I thought I would go with but I just loved everything about it - can’t wait for August!

    About 8 but I bought number 4. I cried when I saw myself in it. I just wanted to make sure I covered all my bases before buying it!

    None yet! I want to wait until closer (I have 20 months), but I can't help but to look online constantly.

    Did you try on a variety of dress styles or did you have the styles you liked already narrowed down?

    I totally understand wanting to make sure it was absolutely the dress for you! Were the rest of the dresses you tried similar styles?

    Are you taking a break from dress shopping for a while or are you going again soon?

    Did my first "trial fitting" at the start of January. I tried on 8 during that appointment to get a feel for what I wanted, I thought originally a more poofy dress but turns out I liked the fitted styles more! Thank goodness for professionals to nudge you in different directions. I have appointments at 3 salons to hopefully pick my dress in April for real (and a few -lbs won't hurt my dream of a fitted dress either)
