Wedding Dress
UN-check :(

(I'm not sure who I stole this picture from :( sorry but I LOVE this dress, sort of)

Ok ladies......................AAAAAHHHHHHHH (screaming)

I am 150 days out and I instantly have no dress! I bought my dress on ebay in August of last year for $131. It is exactly what I wanted with a halter top, pick ups, medium train and pink accents. It's beautiful! But I have come to realize, it's not my dress. I have read about a lot of you girls talking about "the one" and I think I need that feeling.

So now, I have to find THE dress and hope that it is not too costly and I can get it here in time. I also ordered the BM dresses 2 weeks ago. BM's were pink and MOH was silver. Well now I think I want a pink dress so I definitely don't want the BM dresses to be pink. C'mon! it's a little late to become indecisive! Well maybe not, I called the dress shop, she made some calls and got them all switched to silver. Woohoo!! Ok, but that still leaves me with no dress!

I am a girl that knows what I want and I know how to get it. So why now, on one of the biggest days of my life, am I going back on a decision that I made 6 months ago???

I guess I just want to have that "feeling"

I know *exactly* what you mean.  I went to a bridal show & bought a gorgeous dress...but somehow I don't have that feeling about it either.  I got an incredible deal on it, but I'm just not sure.  The rational side of my brain is saying...it's just one day so you should be happy with the deal you got & stick with the dress you have.  My heart is saying... I want butterflies when I put on that dress...I want to feel complete...in turn, I'm torn...what are we to do?

That's the same thing that happend to my BFF/MOH. she bought her dress last november when she's getting married this sept. as she got it off the rack it's been sitting in her closet since november. now's she's second guessing it. i think when ppl get their dresses to early the novelity wears off. When i got my dress I wasn't to happy with it. actually none of the dresses i tried on had that "the one" feeling and the more and more dresses i tired on the more i felt they are all the same. you gonna wear this dress once (hopefully) for one day then it sits in your closet for the rest of you life and c'mon now be honest.. u think u really gonna check on it every week ..every month (well maybe at first) but what after 6 months after the wedding. I know you want the "the one" feeling and you are second guessing cause you are seeing everyone's dress and you are hmmming and haaaaing but would your FH care if he sees ur in jeans or in a $25000 dress? i'm not trying to be mean dont' get me wrong the dress i wanted was $3000 but then i spoke with a lady at work who has been married for over $40 years and she got the expensive dress when i was talking to her she just laughed and said if I had to do it all over again I would of gone with a cheaper dress... anyway what i'm trying to say itsmedmh is that no matter what you wear i bet you will be beautiful no need stressing about a dress. the get the best thing ever..ur husband!

i really love this dress too! it's beautiful, unique and i've never seen anything like it and the detailing and colouring is gorgeous.  I know what you mean about "the feeling" you get when u put on the dress.  I found the dress in the first store i tried it on and didn't want to take it off. it felt like it was made for me and no matter how many dresses i tried on i kept coming back to the "the one" i would compare details and everything to "the dress" on all other dresses i tried on.  and every time I put on that dress it took my breath away so i knew in my heart that was it. it was that "feeling"

WOW this is ADHD at its best.  I read your post and basically wrote a comment that said go for it...then i re-read and only read the part about you already ordeirng your bridesmaids in pink and started writing a comment about contacting the bridal shop....then I re-read it and saw the bridal shop could switch it....so after paying full attention to the post my vote is to go for it!  THis dress you posted is so pretty and unconventional!  I love it when brides step outside the norm!  :-)  Good luck!

thanks for your thoughts girls! julybride, i didn't think you were saying anything mean at all. i have actually had the same thoughts but i also want that feeling that everyone talks about. i may never find it and that's ok because i have a dress if not. my aunt is paying for the replacement if there is one so i promised her i would at least try some on. she is in the process of looking for the one in the picture.

tiggre, you crack me up! i once read somebody's so fast, i thought they were saying flowers would kill them within a week! thanks for taking the time to re-read ;)
