    I have been having trouble figuring out what wedding dress I want.  I bought a dress last Saturday, had second thoughts, and cancelled the order on Monday.  I went dress shopping yesterday and have now narrowed down my selection to the dress I had previously bought and one other.  Apparently this is stressing me out more than I had thought.  I have had hives 3 times in the last 12 hours.  I kept dreaming about dress shopping last night and would wake up super itchy with hives.  :(  I feel like it's so pathetic that I am letting this bother me so much.  I don't want to keep causing myself to get hives... My luck, I'll end up with them on my wedding day if I can't calm myself down now.  I'm not even getting married until September 24, 2011!!  How frustrating...

    I'm sorry you are getting so stressed out.  Just realize that it's just a dress, if you pick the 'wrong' one, it's not going to ruin your wedding.  You will still have a beautiful wedding where you marry a wonderful man.

    BREATHE!!! im having dress commitment issues too!! found many i liked alot but after i got home i waited for a few days and the feeling faded. if you are not snapping that dress up right there it may not be the right one. take your time, you have tons of it and keep looking. if you want you can even design your own with pieces you like from a ton of random dresses and find a dressmaker. rush rush decisions can sometimes be the wrong one. take pics, come back to it later, you can always order it if its not in the store. happy hunting!!

    Hey, at least you got to cancel your dress order!  I ordered mine on a Friday (they weren't going to put the order in until the following Monday), called that next Thursday to change the length to petite... then Friday I had a freakout and wanted to cancel/put the order on hold, but they said all sales are final and I wouldn't be able to cancel the order.  I think it's BS considering the manufacturer probably hadn't even received my order yet, let alone starting making it.  They said it will take 7 months to get the dress.  Thankfully, I have decided I want to keep the dress.... but it still upsets me!  Hope I LOVE it when it comes in :)
