I must say, finding the perfect dress can be a lot of fun but also seems to get the bride very confused!
Going gown shopping is probably the most exiting part of preparing for a wedding!!!
lace of my wedding dress
My
first try on was about 5 months ago. Me and a friend Maria were driving
around town on a Saturday when all of a sudden i see a large SALE sign
on the window of this bridal gown store.
My friend and i decided to pop in even though i was planning on waiting a few months longer before starting to look for my dress.
We quickly paged through the dresses the same way i usually page through a magazine taking a quick note of the pictures (dresses) i liked the most.
I must say the dresses were pretty but not quite the dress that WOWED me!
I decided to book an appointment to try on a few dresses while they were still within the sale period.
A few days latter i picked my mother and big sister up and the three of us went to the bridal store.
When we got there the lady at the store Ms. Christala was very welcoming and sweet. She let us look through the dresses and pull out the ones we thought had most potential.
I pulled out a white simple flowy gown,
My mother pulled out a couple of princess ball gowns while my sister paged through the dresses amazed!
Ms. Christala also pulled out a gown for me to try on. As she held the dress by the hanger, i must admit that i was not blown away. But i was exited to try on as many dresses as possible so i started off with Ms. Christalas selection...
As soon as i popped my head out of the dress and took a first glance of my self in the mirror, i was enchanted by the breathtaking gown made from lace.
It shimmered and sparkled in a subtle way that made me feel like a bride should feel straight away.
I knew at that moment that that was my dress!!!
My mother and sister also seemed exited and had a pinned smile that would not wipe off their faces.
Yes, i did continue to try on the other gowns we pulled out but by mind was made and i had fallen in love with the first dress.
A week latter i went by the store and handed a deposit for the dress i fell in love with.
During these months i must admit that i still look through pictures of wedding gowns to make sure i am making the right choice.
I have even fallen in to the temptation of showing a picture of my dress to a few friends to get their opinion. I must say that some have said they love it and others not so much.
This got me a bit nervous and made me second guess my self.
So i booked an appointment to go try on a few more dressed at a few other bridal stores.
And even though i did find a second dress which i think that my sister and mother like even more then the original dress i liked... my mind still keeps on going back to that first dress.
So, i have decided that i am going to get the dress that i originally fell in love with. The one that makes me exited for the wedding day when i think about it.
Here's a tip for the brides to be that are looking for their dress... When you find that one dress that makes you feel extra special, do not let other peoples opinion change your mind, Listen to your heart and Follow your gut Instinct.
You get one chance to be a bride and you should wear what ever makes you happy!
