But, I did go to two other stores before making an official decision.</p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/how-many-trips#post-451452 Thu, 05 Nov 2009 17:30:56 +0000 naangel55 451452@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>I went to 3 different bridal stores and 2 of those I went back to twice before I ended up ordering my dress. I probably tried on about 20-30 dresses</p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/how-many-trips#post-451231 Thu, 05 Nov 2009 15:48:24 +0000 DecemberBride 451231@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>@Mrs.Louboutin: I did the exact same thing! No crying, no gushing... I was just staring. Which is funny because I'm a total crier, but at that moment I just wanted to stare. Yep, I totally get it. :-)</p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/how-many-trips#post-451227 Thu, 05 Nov 2009 15:45:49 +0000 DecemberBride 451227@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>First store, third dress I tried on.</p> <p>I did a ton of searching on-line before I went dress shopping, though, and I knew which dress I wanted before ever trying it on. I went to a boutique that carried the dress I wanted to try on, I tried it on third, and that's the dress I bought. :-)</p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/how-many-trips#post-451221 Thu, 05 Nov 2009 15:41:40 +0000 Mrs. Louboutin 451221@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>I also don't think everyone has that gushing crying moment.&nbsp; I sure didn't.&nbsp; I knew when I found the dress that I just wanted to stare at myself in and not want to take off.</p> <p>I also went wedding dress shopping alone and purchased my dress without anyone there.&nbsp; I didn't want anyone elses opinion and fortunately my mom loved it (she should since she paid for it!) But, she left the decision up to me and everything turned out really well.&nbsp;</p> <p>I had the bridal consultant at Sak's take a picture of me with my blackberry in the dress so that if I ever start second guesing my dress decision or wanting to go online and browse, I look at myself in it and fall in love with the dress all over again.</p> <p>I am now re-reading this and seeing how narcissistic this sounds, but I think you need to be when it comes to your wedding dress.</p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/how-many-trips#post-451215 Thu, 05 Nov 2009 15:37:33 +0000 formerlybuttons 451215@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>I went to about 7 different stores and tried on close to 100 dresses.&nbsp; I know, it sounds kinda crazy and believe me, I was getting STRESSED!&nbsp; The dress I ended up with is nothing like what I thought I wanted and had been trying on, but it's the one!&nbsp; Everyone has their own timeline -- don't worry if it's taking a little longer.</p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/how-many-trips#post-451210 Thu, 05 Nov 2009 15:31:02 +0000 Future Mrs. Martin 451210@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>1 day - 2 stores - 11th dress was the one!</p> <p>Went to 2 other stores after finding the one and tried on 4 more but nothing compared!</p> <p>Don't worry it will happen!</p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/how-many-trips#post-451208 Thu, 05 Nov 2009 15:30:38 +0000 Mrs. Louboutin 451208@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>I went to one bridal shop, found out that I wanted a Kenneth Pool for sure, and then went to Saks and only tried on Kenneth Pool dresses.&nbsp; I bought it on my second trip and after trying on 1 Melissa Sweet and 6 Kenneth Pools.&nbsp; I don't regret it for a second.</p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/how-many-trips#post-451204 Thu, 05 Nov 2009 15:29:06 +0000 zippylef 451204@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>I've been to about 7-8 stores and tried on over 100 dresses. I've found one that I think is the one, but I'm going to a trunk show and a rush for the dress sale this weekend. If I strike out there, I'm buying the one I found.</p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/how-many-trips#post-449489 Wed, 04 Nov 2009 23:44:20 +0000 melv0802 449489@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>1st trip...1st dress..but i tried on maybe 5 more after, then decided that i looved the first one..and to this day, i am still drooling over it=) funny thing is, my mom picked it out! and i didnt think it looked all that great on the hanger, but once i tried it, i definitely knew...good luck with the search, i'm sure you'll find "the one"</p>
