My wedding is October 19th of this year and I purchased a dress back in November/ December. I purchased the old dress as a sample sale and it was beautiful but it was not me, I rushed to find it because we believed we would be having the wedding much sooner due to very poor health circumstances in the family.. but now flash forward and we were able to pick a gorgeous venue, with a date of our choice! I couldn’t be happier... except for my dress, I have been having nightmares over my dress and terrible anxiety. Which is crazy because I’m typically one of those “eh whatever, it’s a dress” type people. But for whatever reason it was making me sick to my stomach, and you could see the difference between the pictures of how confident and beautiful I felt in the new dress! So last Saturday I did it, I found the dress or my freaking dreams and I wanted to show the world because I am so beyond happy, and it was another sample dress, so huge savings!! I knew this was the dress I was supposed to wear. The dress of my dreams to marry the man of my dreams. Please let me know what you think, and I hope this helps anyone who was having dress regret! I say follow your heart, money is of course always in the back of our minds, I am a Pre-School teacher so I am a strict budgeter, but I realized that I can always make more money; I can’t make more pictures and I can’t Go back and remake time. Here are pictures of the new dress!!! Now to start alterations!
That’s pretty! I love those sleeves. What did your old dress look like? I picked my dress in a hurry too because of failing health in the family, we still have to stick to the schedule but luckily I picked the right dress, no dress regret! I agree with you completely. I absolutely would’ve changed my dress if I was feeling bad about it.

Hi yam! I will attach pictures of my original dress to this message for you. Thank you for the kind words 💜 I felt very scared in this dress, I have always been very busty, with broad shoulders and big arms, I played college softball and lacrosse so I was very self conscious of how my arms and chest looked.. I always felt the need to cover up or hide my arms..
Your new dress is beautiful. Your old dress was lovely too but you can see it in your body language that you feel so much better in the new one. I’m working through some dress doubts myself, but Getting a new dress is out of the question, so here’s to hoping I fall back in love with it xD.
Date twins! Your dress is gorgeous! I did the same thing. I bought a dress on a whim and wasn’t happy with it. I finally found the perfect dress and couldn’t be happier!!
