Wedding Dress Try Ons

Monique, on June 13, 2019 at 11:56 PM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 14
How often do you try on your wedding dress before the big day? I have mine hanging currently and have been debating trying it on for the first time since it came in...(truth is I am a little terrified to try it on in the event that maybe it won’t fit)

    I have yet to get mine and it's killing me cause I already want to have it lol. I'm just waiting to put a deposit down so we can continue the process. I'm getting it custom made and I'm super excited. I feel if I was allowed, I'd probably sleep in it lol

    I took a sample dress home. I didn't try it on again until the fitting. To be honest, I can't get it on myself lol.

    I think I must have tried mine on like five times in total before my wedding

    I’ve had mine since May 8 and, not including the day I bought it, have tried it on three times in an alterations appointment and I think twice at home? I don’t get married until august 8, and plan on wearing it possibly in the boudoir shoot I’m doing at the end of the month, but we’ll see

    I tried my dress on when it arrived at the bridal store (beginning of January) and that's it. I'm going to my first fitting on July 5th and can't wait to put it on again!

    I've been doing my own alterations, so I've tried it on a bunch. But I've also tried it on about three times just for the heck of it. Definitely going to do that one or two more times before the wedding.

    I tried mine on maybe once after the final alterations - it lived at my mom's house, so I didn't have the opportunity to try it on more than once or twice. I tried it on one day when I went to her house for something - like a week before the wedding just to make sure I didn't stress eat my way right out of my alterations! HA!

    I rented a bunch of bridesmaid dresses for my moh to try on and I put my wedding dress on while she tried the dresses to see what style looked best with it. I also want to just put mine on all the time but I'm scared it won't feel as special if I try it on often hahaaha.

    I’ve tried my dress on twice since I got it. The first time was with my sisters and they zipped me into it and I could not sit down, I’m in process of losing weight so I ordered it two sizes down. Anyways the following weekend I tried it on with out anyone there cuz I wanted to be realistic about how many inches I have to lose to wear it comfortably. I was not happy 🙄😩. I haven’t tried it on since cuz I don’t wanna get depressed, but I know I will be able to lose that weight on time👍

    I took my dress home with me since it was on clearance. I didn't even see it for 7 months and had gained a little weight so I was nervous it wouldn't fit. My mom was keeping it at her house so I just showed up one day and I put it on and she somewhat got it laced up. Since then, I've had 2 alterations appointments, with another one in a couple of weeks. So I've had it on 4 times so far, and my wedding is in 5 weeks.

    I have gained weight since I bought mine. I recently lost some weight but I’m still slightly worried to put it on 😩

    That’s so cool that you are doing your own! It’s probably saving you a ton of money too!
