I love the first wedding dress I tried on? BUY IT?

Danielle, on August 12, 2012 at 9:42 AM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 14

Is this common>? I loved it! I keep thinking about and seeing myself wearing it on that day. I dont know if I should look around more (magazines, pintrest) or go to other shops. I never even looked at wedding dresses for myself until this day when we went just for an idea. Should I just buy that one?

    Extremely common. I used to be a bridal stylist. 70% of brides buy the first dress they try on.

    I bought the first dress I tried on, for each of my two weddings. But it really depends on how decisive you are generally. If you're likely to second guess yourself, you might try on some more just to confirm your choice.

    I'll also add. . .I bought the first dress I tried on, but between trying the first time (late one night at work, on a dare) and buying I tried on about 8 others.

    I didn't buy my first dress I tried on because it was ugly.

    I think if you daydream about that dress and can't get it out of your mind, it very well could be the one. I also did not buy the first dress I tried on, but I did buy one of the dresses I tried on at the first shop I ever went to!

    Mine was the 3rd one. First two ivory looked ugly. Tried on a 4th just to be sure I wanted charcoal gray and not same dress in ivory. I stuck with 3rd in charcoal gray.

    It's very common for a Bride to be to buy the first wedding dress you have tried on!

    I did...40 years ago...and I didn't want to try on another because I love it so much and it was exactly what I had in mind.

    If the dress fits..and you love it ..go and buy it..what are you waiting for girl! You don't have to try on 20 dresses to be sure..I think you found the one you want and you have already said yes to it with your mind and heart!

    I bought the 12th dress if you love it and know it's YOU, then it's definitely the one.
