I loved my dress, but I didn't have "the moment".  I am not a sentimental person and I tend not to wear my emotions on my sleeve.  I was torn between two dresses, and I chose the one that felt more me.  But, I also stopped looking at dresses.  I think that is the key to not having dress-regret!

I didn't cry - I was with a group of my friends and I tried on a million - I felt like a fat puff ball and all I could think about was the Stay Puffed guy from Ghostbusters and so maybe I did cry a little at that thought.  But after trying on a million different dresses - ok, so maybe it was more like 30 - I kept coming back to mine.  I just loved the way I felt in it and how it was "me" - very simple.  I wasn't even "officially" engaged when we went, but my guy was out of town for 3 months and told me to get it if I wanted to and so it's been hanging in it's bag for going on a year! I put it on when my best friend from out of town was visiting and I still loved it in August so hopefully in March when I put it back on to get it altered, I will love it still.

i was positive that i wouldn't cry, but i did. the dress i bought, i actually didn't even pick out. my bridesmaids, my mom, my mom's friends and i each picked out about 3 dresses and none of them really worked for me. then our consultant picked one which i wasn't crazy about on the hanger. i put it on, and as soon as i saw myself in the mirror (and one of my bridesmaids crying), i knew that i'd found it. it's funny because i'm usually not that super emotional, but whatever works, right?

I don't really cry, but when I tried on "my dress" I broke out into hives. I have tried on a few dresses since and there have been no reaction. I went into to try on my dress again for a fitting and I broke out into hives AGAIN.

I do not think it is a myth, it certainly could happen.

I will have to get a fan and some champagne to calm my hives down before the wedding!!

I found my dress on my very first dress-hunting experience.  However, I didn't want to limit my pool of choices to the 4 dresses I tried on that day, so I passed on it.  We took a few other trips, but somewhere along the line "that dress" started being referred to as "my dress".  I realized, standing in the middle of David's Bridal, in a gorgeous buy-now-or-that's-it sample, that the first dress was the one.  When we went back to revisit it, my mom burst into tears.  She said she had known all along but she was waiting for me to come around!

I had the BIG moment but it was with out crying. My expression changed to giddy and all that and I knew it was the one but it didn't make me cry and I didn't expect to cry.

I may tear at some point in the wedding, but when it comes to things like dress - no.  My MOH was happier than I was just to go shopping.  Don't get me wrong, I am glad I picked the dress I did, and maybe on the day all dressed up, I'll be a bit misty (doubtful), but that stuff just doesn't do it to me.

I thought I was a crier, but didn't.  When the consultant zipped me up, but before I saw the dress on me, I had the biggest smile and imagined myself marrying my FI.  Then, as soon as I walked out to show my MOH & mom, the expression of my MOH's face sealed the deal.  I was SO HAPPY, that I skipped back to the dressing room! :)

i didn't cry and i'm a crier.  it's making me feel slightly insecure about my dress too.  

for me the problem was that i LOVED every dress i tried on (and there were lots).  i hated having to pick just one.  my dress was the one i kept coming back to so i went with it.  i do have a picture of me in it, the day i bought it, with a smile so big it actually looks painful.  when i second guess my dress, i try to look at that pic and remember the feeling.

i didn't cry. i just got REALLY REALLY happy!! i couldn't quit smiling and my face just lit up! im absolutely in love with my dress and i didn't shed a single tear! i definitly know its the one because now im very biased when i see other dresses. im always comparing them to mine and nothing is ever better than mine. lol.
