Said yes to the dress. Now i have dress stress. 1

After trying on countless gowns at 7 different places everything was starting to look the same. The second I put this dress on, I felt amazing, wore it around the shop for a while and said yes. It’s totally my style. Now I’m wondering if I’ve made a mistake 😣 anyone else have doubts after they paid for their dress. Now I feel like it’s not bridal enough? I might adding lining to the bodice and I will have the tailor make beaded straps to match the beading on the dress. My hair will be mostly down. Suggestions? Am I just being crazy? I think maybe the stress of throwing together a wedding in six months is getting to me.

Girl I feel you!!! I think everyone starts feeling some dress regret because there are so many dresses and they're all gorgeous!!! Remember you picked this dress for a reason - it looks plenty bridal and looke amazing to you. I threw my wedding together in seven months, so I get that stress! Breathe and trust your gut that it's still your dress.

I think it's very bridal! It's gorgeous! I understand dress stress, but you have to remember that first feeling you had when you first tried it on, how amazing you felt in it and that it's your style. That's what kept me from feeling too much dress regret. Also, I'd recommend stop looking at dresses and comparing them to yours. Congratulations!!

You dress is gorgeous! I exchanged my dress because I tried on my original dress and I hated everything about it and I felt like I looked absolutely terrible in it, It drew my attention to all the areas I'm not fond of. I tried on my new dress when it came in on Friday and I felt just as beautiful as the first time I tried it on. If you were walking around the store in it for a while, head over heels in love with it, at least give yourself until the dress comes in, or see if you can go to the store and put it back on, see how that makes you feel.

The dress is absolutely gorgeous and it looks amazing on you.

This dress literally looks like it was made for you.

I have ill thoughts about my dress. I panicked because I thought I was taking too much of everyone's time. Background is that I'm an overly nervous person and it took 1.5 hours and 8 dresses for me to pick one. So that's on me.

However, it's just a dress. I know a lot of people will disagree with me but I don't mind my dress and it will work fine. Just know that you look amazing in that dress and that they day isn't really about the dress.

Your dress is gorgeous and maybe it doesn't feel as bridal because you don't have a veil on! That really makes the difference for some people.

The dress looks super bridal to me! It's a beautiful dress, but it's also a very important dress. It's the one you're marrying the love of your life in, so it's normal to question and look at other dresses!

Your dress is beautiful! I'm havingstress because of price I paid for mine (definitely way more than I budgeted for a dress) and because of the size (Im still losing weight and think its going to be too big )

This dress is GORGEOUS! I agree with the other posted who mentioned a veil. I think that will make a world of difference in making you feel more like a bride

First of all, this dress is gorgeous on you! I think you made the right decision. I also had doubts after buying my dress considering there are so many beautiful dresses out there. But after a month of buying my dress, I went back to the store to try it on again and fell in love all over again. I then remembered why I chose my dress in the first place. Please don't change your mind, the dress is beautiful on you

First of all you look gorgeous and plenty bridal. But I know what you mean. But I keep looking at the pictures and remembering the moment I knew it was the one and it calms my doubts.

I haven’t committed to a dress yet but the one I am closest to committing to is considered platinum and it’s majorly throwing me off...I feel the need to see it in ivory because I feel like that’ll seal the deal for me. With that being said, our dress styles are very similar and I think that dress looks AMAZING on you!! And the color looks very bridal. What one consultant said to me was if I want typical bridal...she can find me a dress from the 80’s...after she said that I felt better lol!

I bet it’s beautiful! I don’t think I’ve seen anything that’s considered platinum but I like the sound of it! And that’s so true I walked into first appointment with my heart set on a true white dress and was shocked that the bridal salon didn’t carry a single white dress!
