Wedding Dress
should I just get another one....

I've had my dress since March of last year because we were previously engaged but pushed the date back due to change in jobs. It was tight then and its still tight now. I'm 5'2" 140. I really don't think I'm big and most people don't either, I'm just very thick in the middle. My dress was on sale the store was going out of business and that's one of the main reasons I got it but I do like it. It was a $1200 dollar dress on sale at a boutique for 75% off cause the store was going out of business. It was the second store I went in and I went alone although I had my mom and aunt(planner/coordinator) when I went to finally purchase the dress.
I didn't cry or have that moment everyone says you should feel. I do like the dress but I kinda wonder if I should look a lil more or if its just me. It does fall into the "old hollywood" theme though. Then another thing is I don't want to go on a diet to lose weight and lose too much and the dress not fit right. I'm the biggest now that I've ever been and its really not a problem for me just a problem for me to fit in my dress. I know I have a while to get the mid section right but I'm not a fan of sit ups however I'm trying to eat healthier now.

That dress looks so beutiful on you!! I just got engaged and have not gone dress shopping but i heard that once u have "the" dress you will feel it.  If your not feeling it u should look around just to be sure but it really looks beautiful.  Congrats!

You look absolutely amazing.  When is your wedding?  Even if you loved your dress, if you kept looking you would confuse yourself because you would find something else you liked too.

You have two choices, stop looking and start falling in love with your dress, or get that dress out of your head and start from scratch.

The dress looks beautiful on you but if you aren't loving it, I think you should go dress hunting. Good luck! :)

thanks! everyone @ feelslikeadream, I feel like that's what I'm doing confusing myself because I really feel like there's nothing wrong with my dress I just didn't get a "feeling" like everyone say you're supposed to

I agree that you look really good in your dress. There's all kind of body-shapers out there, so I wouldn't really worry about the tummy. However, do continue to eat right...you don't want to gain any weight. You should definitely love your dress, and feel good in it...if that's not the case...I would suggest you go on the hunt.

The dress looks lovely on you, and fits your theme to a tee.  Maybe once you have a complete look. you might feel different.  I wasn't feeling my dress when I first put it on.  I bought because it was cheap ($300).  But once I put my cathedral veil on, the tears started flowing and I new that was my dress.

@lynnie11276 that's how much my dress was.  I was just thinking that in my mind that once I got the accessories I would fall in love.

The dress looks amazing in these pics. Girl throw on some spanx and rock it. I didnt have a "feeling" with my dress. I just know what I do and dont like and found one that fit me. There was no light shining sent from God moment that I remember.

FYI....Im selling mine super cheap! Check out my blog if you want!
