    I just ordered this dress a few weeks ago. I absolutely loved it when I tried it on. I have aways known that I wanted a ball gown wedding dress with lots os sparkle. I tried on other styles like mermaid and fit n flare as well.  they falttered my body, but Its no what I imagine myself in when I imagine my wedding dress. The more I look at this dress the more I think it doesnt look good on me and Im freaking out that I made the wrong decision. Please tell me your opinions on my dress! Thanks!

    AMAZING!!! sometimes I stilllll do... Like I should have gone with a ballgown and strapless but imagine how you want to feel on your wedding day:)) Just close your eyes and envision it all and your hair,makeup,bouquet and your FI staring at you. Your first dance all that good stuff then remember why you chose it!:) I have been alot lol!

    That is a fabulous dress-you look awesome!  Once you get it in and tweak the fit to show off your great figure and tiny waist you will love it.  Seriously, I have dress envy.

    Your dress is beautiful and your waist looks tiny!!! Once it's altered to fit perfectly and you've got your accessories I am sure you will love it again.

    Thanks Everyone! I know I loved it so I dont know why I keep freaking out. I need to quit worrying and just relaize why I loved it in the first place. I think this picture doesnt help because the bad quality of it, plus this dress isnt as beautiful in the picture as it was in real life! Thanks again for all your comments. It def gives me reassurance of why I picked this dress in the first place!

    I LOVE that dress.  And it looks great on you!! Honestly.  The satin gown with the beading on top makes it elegant and luxurious.

    I experienced dress doubt too.  Fell in love with my dress last fall, ordered it, then started having major dress doubt.  It was seriously bothering me.  Sometimes I even convinced myself that I had made the wrong choice.  Well, my dress came in last week and I went to try it on with my veil, and it was fabulous.  I loved it just as much!  So all that to say that dress doubt is normal.

    Op you and I share the same dress and the same battle with dress regret. I remember the feeling of finding Loretta, I was overwhelmed.

    I think the key thing to remember is that this dress is waaaay more gorgeous in person. I can't help but notice that in photos all you see are the obvious details but in person it is very delicate, intricate and beautiful. It is a gorgeous dress and we are going to look gorgeous on our wedding day.

    Here is me in the sample dress as well, can't wait for my first fitting in MY dress. :)

    We're all guilty of continuing to shop after we've purchased. That's why people (like me) who are already married still play on this site, because we just love to look and sometimes you can make yourself envious for no reason.
