Wedding dress shopping for the first time!

OMG TOO funny, we're both brides named Jess who fell in love with a dress at Kleinfelds!

Thanks for the advice! I'm excited to try on different shapes.

This is my dream situation!! LOL I'm so glad you had such an easy experience. I'm hoping that my consultant is in-tune like yours was! I think Pinterest will be my sidekick throughout all of this planning. Thanks for your message!! xo

View Quoted Comment Good luck!

I agree with a lot of the other girls!
I personally would try it on first! I did with mine and I got lucky it was perfect, but it it wasn’t I would have gotten it out of my head earlier and been able to actually look the other dresses rather than saying “oh I like this but I might like my ‘dream’ dress more” and nixing other too soon. Try it on, either love it or get it out of your head! THEN triple yes try one every single shape and style you can! (If for no other reason than how fun it is! When will you ever be trying in so many expensive and giant dresses?!) but also, I was surprised by how much I loved this one that was opposite of my original love, so much that I decided to add a top skirt for part of the wedding so I could have both styles!

My consultant at Kleinfeld said “you know it’s your dress when you don’t want to take it off”. I fell in love with my dress on the hanger and definitely didn’t want to take it off after they put the veil on!

Beautiful dress. I'm so happy for you and your mom, hope you guys find THE ONE.

Ahhh thank you for your message. I'm feeling really hopeful and am definitely leaning towards ripping off the band-aid and trying it on first. As much of a girly-girl as I am, I'm absolutely shocked I've never put a white dress on before LOL ITt makes this all the more special - I can't wait!

So sweet of you, thank you! Saturday can't come soon enough!

Beautiful dress. I went wedding dress shopping with my mother, cousin, and friends. It was a great time and I found a dress that I loved but, I ended up finding something even better which is Anomile.com. I have been getting my dress custom designed with veil and everything. I have my own designer and met with her regarding my design. I just picked out my fabrics and am very excited! They get their dresses made by the same vendor as Vera Wang and charge a fraction of the price. I am not sponsored by them by love helping fellow brides that may want a custom dress.

I would try it on first. Looking at my experiences with friends liking the same silhouette I recommend you Rey sitting down and other actions of the like to make sure it doesn't fit too tight. Make sure you are comfortable. And bring Kleenex! U and your mom will surely need some. 🙂 Congrats!

Yes, great advice, thanks Maria! I'm 90% sure I will request to put it on first. I CAN'T freaking wait.

View Quoted Comment Right!? That's really going to be exciting! I just think if u leave it for last u might not enjoy the others fully cause that will be the one on ur mind. Once y try it on u can decide if it's what u wanted and then look at the others more critically to see if they match, surpass, or just fall well below how u thought the Glorietta looked on you. Either way have fun and enjoy ur mother daughter time♡!
