Hi I just wanted to see if anyone is or has been in my situation. My first dress fitting is this weekend and since I said yes to this dress (in September) all this time I’ve been worried if I got the right one. I was already self conscious about my body and now even more so with my weight gain. My wedding is in March of this year. cfb_1450265.jpg

Do y’all have any tips to remind myself I’ll love this dress and to not feel like I settled with it? I’m just so worried that when I see myself on my wedding day I’ll think “I could’ve looked better”. I don’t mean to put so much negativity I just need some advice. cfb_1450267.jpg

    Thank you! 💕 I’m now excited with all the advice and nice comments. I’m the only one getting married right now so I don’t really have anyone to chat too about my concerns that are in the same boat.

    You are a beautiful woman and you have a beautiful body and a beautiful dress! I totally understand where you're at. I think too many of us do, but remember that when people look at you, they will see your joy and your future and your excitement. They will not think "gosh is she heavier than she was last March?" No one scrutinizes us like we scrutinize ourselves (and frankly, you don't have anything to scrutinize to begin with!)

    I love the dress on you and if you wouldn’t have mentioned the weight gain, I would have never guessed. It looks amazing. I’m a fellow March bride - exciting times ☺️
