So I went wedding dress shopping for the first time Saturday, and when I put the 3rd dress on I got “the feels”. My MOH and consultant didn’t even want me to try on anymore bc they said that that one was the one, and I agree! But I still went home to think it over. Could I have possibly found “the one” on the 3rd dress tried on ? How many dresses did you try on before you found the one ?
I personally just want to try on more dresses before I commit, entirely because I'm rather self-conscious and I don't want to be on my wedding day. I feel like I will be more confident in my choice if I know other dresses arent it. However, on my first trip, I did find a dress I could have said yes to, so it is entirely possible that you found yours! If you're still questioning just try a few more, if you're still thinking about the other one then you know the answer!
I'm almost embarrassed to say 10. Three bridal stores and on the third Shoppe omg I found it. The one, the style was a dress I never imaged would work since I have curves. It doesn't ride when I walk, raise my arms or anything. No alterations needed

That’s awesome!! It is totally possible you found the one! 😊 I fell In love with this dress I tried on, on my first try on trip!! Although I loved it I knew I needed to keep looking to see if I could find one to top it bc I too felt like you. Uncertain if it was too early to pick one yet.... long story short I went to 4 boutiques in total and I don’t regret waiting. Because I found ‘the one’ at the 3rd boutique 😍
On the official dress picking day, 2. Dress #1 was chosen. Before that maybe 10-12 from places I’d pop into here and there. I love my dress but also don’t have emotional feels about this part of the wedding which is a good and a bad.

Don’t be embarrassed! I was 10-15. I had a very casual experience in that I popped into our local bridal shop on weekdays for new trunk show dresses they got in. Annnnd I wanted an experience by myself.

I bought the very first dress I tried on. It was under budget and had everything I wanted. I can't WAIT to wear it!
I tried on about 14 dresses after it, but seriously that first one took the cake. Just like with your betrothed... trust your gut...
My 3rd dress was the one as well. tried on the rest. and was kinda stuck between the 2nd and 3rd. but ultimately went with the 3rd. first appointment and only one shop
I tried on around 10 dresses until I found the one! Tbh, even after buying the dress I still went online browsing for other dresses, but I still kept coming back to the one I fell in love with!!
Hi Elizabeth. My FH was in the Navy. I’m retired Philly Police. They had over 500 dresses. I think they had 300 left after the giveaway. They then move to the next county to do it all over again until the dresses are gone. They were from an Italian designer. His business folded after decades of designing. Go Army! Go Navy! ☺️
I think less than 10. My initial appointment I was just trying on to see what styles I liked the most, and the second appointment my mom wasn't there so it was really hard to make a decision. My third and final appointment the first dress I tried on was it. I could find anything wrong, and when they put a veil on I cried. My mom cried because I cried. I did try on a few after that, and I had major dress regret initially (indecisiveness strikes again!), but the more I think about it the more excited I am!
My dress will be shipping in May I'm so super excited.
thanks. I also was not trying to spend thousands for a dress that I knew it was ONLY going to be worn once. I don't have scoops like that

I went to more than 3 shops within these last three years. Our wedding is next year. Funny story, last year saw this dressed loved it, but did not want to buy it, in fear I would find something else.
Well would you know a year later went back to the same bridal shop and there was my dress still there. What happened, I put it in layaway...

First dress but then i tried on the rest and then retried the first one just to be sure.
First dress! I ordered sample dress styles from Azazie, and tried them on at home during a little party with my mom, step mom, FMIL, and MOH/ sister. I tried on my favorite first, and it was at least a size too big, so I knew that was it but I was still a little reluctant. I tried on the rest of the sample styles, and reordered my favorite in a smaller size to confirm!

I was sorta upset. ❤ We had a private showing that I paid $275.00 so it'd just be us. The boutique had mimosas and great finger foods. My group munched out and enjoyed while I was given a BOTTLE OF WATER!! 😂
I tried on 3 and got feels for the 3rd, I tried on a few more afterwards just to make sure but I was comparing each one to the 3rd dress. Better believe that is the ONE! 🥰
