I ordered my "dream" dress online , and it arrived 6 weeks before the wedding , it was bad REAL bad , it didn't fit and the "hand painted detail" looked like a preschooler had played with finger paints. I found  dress 4 weeks before at one of the "running of the bride" events. I had 2nd and 3rd and 4th thoughts. Day of it worked out perfect , having hubby say how nice I looked helped. Don't stress too much , i'm sure you will look stunning on your wedding day!! flamingred on "My Poor Little Dress :-(" http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/my-poor-little-dress-#post-252277 Wed, 08 Jul 2009 13:25:26 +0000 flamingred 252277@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ Luckily when I get dress envy-the objects of my desire are around $5,000 ...there is no reason to be envious at that point. fabulouslyengaged on "My Poor Little Dress :-(" http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/my-poor-little-dress-#post-248582 Sat, 04 Jul 2009 09:33:29 +0000 fabulouslyengaged 248582@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ Oh, thanks for all the kind words.  I went back to my fitting, and yet again, fell in love with my dress. I do agree though, that we all need to have multiple weddings because there are simply SO MANY lovely dresses out there! One a week! bellenga on "My Poor Little Dress :-(" http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/my-poor-little-dress-#post-242814 Mon, 29 Jun 2009 12:34:51 +0000 bellenga 242814@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ Yep.  I think I'd be the worst at this..I remember having dress remorse before I married my x and am so slow at even beginning to look at dresses now because I know how this feels. You second guess yourself all the time.  Well I did anyway.  Never fear!  What is SO AWESOME about the hive here is that when you have that wild fleeting feeling that your dress isn't right, post a pic of you IN THE DRESS and we'll talk you back down (of course we'll also tell you our opinions and the truth too).  stiletto on "My Poor Little Dress :-(" http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/my-poor-little-dress-#post-242763 Mon, 29 Jun 2009 11:58:50 +0000 stiletto 242763@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ We all cheat on our dresses from time to time. I bought mine last October and my wedding is this Septemer, so I've had plenty of time for a wandering eye. But as soon as a slipped it on again a month ago, I had to struggle to take it off, I loved it so much. I got addicted to trying it on around the house before a finally had to take it in for alterations...if it were up to me, I would've been sitting on the couch in it watching tv, with a mirror nearby to start at myself in! :) I just looked at your dress online and it's gorgeous!! You of course want to be happy with your dress, but don't second guess yourself too much..you obviously loved it when you bought it! mlkeysock on "My Poor Little Dress :-(" http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/my-poor-little-dress-#post-242746 Mon, 29 Jun 2009 11:48:39 +0000 mlkeysock 242746@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ I had some really bad dress anxiety! I wore my mom's and altered it to make it just a bit  more modern. I kept panicking thinking, "why didn't I just go dress shopping once just to see what was out there?" In the end, I couldn't imagine wearing anything else. Go with your gut...this is your dress <img src="/my-plugins/tinymce/jscripts/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/images/icon_smile.gif" /> And don't torure yourself anymore by looking at other dresses!!! pvaulter718 on "My Poor Little Dress :-(" http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/my-poor-little-dress-#post-241910 Sun, 28 Jun 2009 07:34:14 +0000 pvaulter718 241910@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ You know how when you buy a pair of shoes that you love, you can buy them in 3 colors, and wear them again and again?  I think the thing with wedding dresses is that there are So many options, but you know that you are limited to choosing one, and for most of us, one color.  Hmph.  Can I wear a different wedding dress to church every Sunday? Maybe that would help, lol Jessie516 on "My Poor Little Dress :-(" http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/my-poor-little-dress-#post-240312 Fri, 26 Jun 2009 10:25:40 +0000 Jessie516 240312@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ Like the other ladies have said, I think we all have moments of dress envy, thanks to the internet and bridal magazines.  However, I google image searched your dress and it loos gorgeous!  It's elegant and classic and you're going to look beautiful. frenchbulldog on "My Poor Little Dress :-(" http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/my-poor-little-dress-#post-240028 Fri, 26 Jun 2009 00:03:51 +0000 frenchbulldog 240028@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ I get dress envy every time I drive home. I LOVE my dress, but I still wish I was a short dress bride and I drive by a wedding dress salon that carries Priscilla of Boston and has short dresses in the window. *sigh* dorsay on "My Poor Little Dress :-(" http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/my-poor-little-dress-#post-239571 Thu, 25 Jun 2009 21:05:04 +0000 dorsay 239571@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ Yeah, I pretty much run away from dresses I see on the internet I'm scared of getting doubts!  That's really my only suggestion - HIDE!  Also, have you considered what jewelry you'd like with your current dress?  Maybe you can focus on the accessories instead of the dress?
