    Did anyone else go to the same dress shop more then 2x?

    I really want to go back to this store where I tired on a beautiful maggie dress over the summer, but I have already been there two times. Would it be rude to take my Grandma there and let her look with me, or should I just go to another store? I am not ready to buy a dress yet but I am looking for the one!

    :) I went back to two different boutiques at least three times. Keep going until you feel confident about your decision.

    I revisited certain stores a number of times.  I don't care if they got sick of seeing me, I needed to know that I was making the right choice!

    I think you need to go as many times as you need to in order to feel comfortable with your decision, be it once or twenty.

    I went to the same shop 3 times before I bought my dress. As long as you are serious about buying a dress and finding the perfect one, it's totally fine.. But if you are for sure not buying right now.. don't waste the lady's time. Wait to go back until you are ready to buy - even if you don't end up buying from them.

    It's just business at the end of the day, so I wouldn't be worried about going back several times. If you don't like the people working there or feel too uncomfortable going to the same store again, just go to a different store in the meanwhile that you know carries your dress. I went to a lot of different dress stores to try on differerent types of dresses, but one nice side effect was getting to work with a lot of different consultants who gave different and good tips and advice.

    I went to my dress place 2 times before I got it - go again!  If they really want your businsess they wont mind that you keep going.

    Yes, definitely!  I thought I wanted a Jim Hjelm dress and went to the bridal shop twice -- the second time I realized that I definitely did NOT want it.  As others have said, go as many times as it takes for you to feel completely confident and comfortable in your decision!

    I went to stores and tried on dresses even though I was 99.99999% sure I was getting the dress I wore. It doesn't hurt to look and I think your grandma would love to go!

    Go as many times as you like. They will know you are trying to be loyal and may help you get a deal. Also, there are probably some new dresses since the summer.

    I agree that you should definitely go back as many times as you need! I went back to 2 different stores 3 times before I made my final decision. I don't think that it is wierd at all to go in multiple times!

    Yes, go back!  It's not like you are just buying a pair of jeans.  You have the right to check and double check to make sure you get what you want. I went to a dress store twice--once with a friend, next with family.  I did not end up buying a dress there, but they were very nice about it.

    Yes, it's def. ok!  I went to the same shop several times before buying mine.  When these girls on SYTTD are expected to purchase a dress on their first trip there, and after only trying on a few dresses, I mean that just baffles my mind! haha  I tried on like every dress in the place, every time I went!!

    I went a few times- just to see how different dresses fit and what styles I liked the best!

    I wish I had gone back more, especially after I bought the dress but before it arrived!
