    I'm sure lots of brides go through this stage after buying their dress, but I'm a little nervous! After going to over a dozen stores and trying on dozens of dresses, I bought the dress today! I first tried it on about a month ago and couldn't stop thinking about it and now that I own it, I'm a little nervous. Anyone else feel this way?

    I absolutely love it! I was a little nervous when I bought my dress, but I think it was more of a 'holy crap, I finally bought my dress' feeling. I have terrible wedding anxiety lol.

    Yes totally know what you mean! It is overwhelming sometimes picking one thing and sticking to it when the wedding is soo far away! It is a beautiful dress for sure!! Just keep a picture locked away and don't keep looking at it..That is what I am doing so on the day it is still special and I am not sick of it

    yes!!  i don't know why i love it and was so excited, but it started the next day, just anxios and jittery!  i kept going into the next room to look at it, and looked up all the other ones i tried on.  out of nowhere it has started to pass, about a week later.  i think its kind of like FINALLY getting engaged, but FINALLY choosing THE dress, its a big step!  but you chose it (after allll those you tried on) for a reason, and most likely its the right reason.  your dress is gorgrous!

    the dress choice was one of the most stressful (and exciting) decisions yet so I understand how you are feeling.

    not sure if this will put your mind at ease or not but one of my best friends wore that dress to her wedding in September.  it was STUNNING.  it looked beautiful when she walked down the aisle, and beautiful when she danced.  it's so elegant and flattering.  you could not have made a better choice!

    Oh wow I love that dress!  It'll be great.  I think lots of people have those jitters but just wait til you have your make-up and hair done, jewelry on and you step into that dress... its gonna be so cool!

    YES!  Totally normal.  I did the same thing and found a new dress that I thought was "the one" each time I went shopping but never bought it because I wanted to mull it over for awhile and make sure it wasn't impulsive and I truly loved it.  When I was FINALLY sure that I loved one, I went to order it only to find that I actually didn't like it this time!!!!  Because I really needed to order a dress due to time, I found one that I never would have tried on (silver) and bought it on the spot.  I totally felt nervous that I had been too quick to order, or that maybe I could have found something better for the next 2 weeks.  Now, though, I truly LOVE it and am so excited.  That is a beautiful dress!

    What a pretty dress.  I think your feelings are totally normal.  I spent the 6 months waiting for my dress to come in wondering if I had made the right choice.  I think it's especially hard when you're online a lot and looking at so many other dresses.  However, I loved my dress when it finally came in and I know you will too! :)

    Your dress is gorgeous, and I'm sure it's the one you were meant to wear! Just give it time, stare at pictures long enough, and you'll fall in love with it all over again!

    I have the same thing going on... I bought my dress Saturday. I wouldnt call it buyer's remorse, but I've just got this 'what if it's really not THE one?!?!' thing going on...

    I love my dress, and I even had to move it to my MOH's house ((it has it's own closet at her house!)) so that I wouldnt open the bag and try it on every single day!

    Thanks everyone for easing my worries! Thanks for all the dress compliments.  Below is a picture of me in it about a month ago with a better camera and a spray tan. I loved it then. When I went to buy it, I wasn't tan and I had a chaeper camera. I like the one of me tanner a lot better! Hope it comes in soon so I can try it on all the time!

    Marlie, that's so funny that someone you know was in this dress! Glad to hear it looked good.

    beautiful!!! love the shape - it's very classy!

    i have felt the same as you (just got the dress the last weekend). A part of me is STILL tempted to look at other dresses but I remember what they told me at the store. Once you've found it, STOP LOOKING. They compared it to, "Once you're engaged and found the guy you are marrying... do you still keep looking around hoping for something better?" :-)

    i love the dress.  it was crazy.  i had my moh take pics of me in various dresses and i thought i liked one.  then when i got home and looked at it, the other just flattered me and photographed better.  i think you made a beautiful choice.
