    Anyone else have a bad case of the nerves before your first fitting? What if I don't love the dress anymore? What if it doesn't fit?

    oops, nearly forgot to mention: my first fitting is today.

    I'm a bit nervous but mine isn't until after your wedding!  Lol.  I'm nervous that I'm totally over my dress, but I'm hopeful that I can get past it, and maybe the seamstress can make it perfect! 

    Good luck today, tell us how it goes!

    I was so afraid that I wouldn't like my dress anymore. When I look at pictures with me in the sample I hate it, but when I put the dress on I feel like I'm on top of the world.

    Have fun today, everything will be perfect.

    My first fitting is one month from today! I'm definitely nervous about it, but I am trying to not worry unless I get there and see that there is legitimately something to be worried about! My logical side is telling me it's all going to be fine...

    I am picking up and trying on my dress tomorrow!  Worst part is that I have to go alone!

    Oh my gosh, I'm nervous pretty much all the time that I'm not wearing my dress.  It's not really right, it's not exciting enough, I should have looked longer, I should have tried on other things, what was I thinking, everyone's dress is better than mine.  And then I put it on.  And I'm in love all over again.  And I remember why I bought the second dress I tried on.  And I can't believe how small it makes my waist look.  And how gorgeous the back is.  But then I take it off and go home and I'm nervous until I see it again.  It's totally normal!  But you bought your dress for a reason, and you're going to love it when you see it on again--and you'll love it more each fitting you go to because it will be fitting you better and better each time!  Good luck, and enjoy!

    I was so nervous, I could barely sleep the night before!  I had the same experience as mrsmdphd -- once I had the dress on, I felt great and comfortable again with my choice.  There's so much pressure to look perfect on your wedding day, it's hard to let go of all the anxiety tied up in the day and just relax...
