How many till you found “the One”

So I went wedding dress shopping for the first time Saturday, and when I put the 3rd dress on I got “the feels”.

So I went wedding dress shopping for the first time Saturday, and when I put the 3rd dress on I got “the feels”. My MOH and consultant didn’t even want me to try on anymore bc they said that that one was the one, and I agree! But I still went home to think it over. Could I have possibly found “the one” on the 3rd dress tried on ? How many dresses did you try on before you found the one ?

    I went to 5 different stores and tried on probably 20 dresses! honestly, there were so many that looked beautiful on me, and there were a lot that my family and friends LOVED but i could feel that it wasn't my dress. Once i found the one, you can just tell, it feels like the one and you should feel comfortable in it. don't let the consultants rush you or make you feel uncomfortable. if that's happening then go somewhere else. most of my consultants gave me as much time as I wanted and the one who found my dress was extraordinary - i told her what i was looking for and she came back with exactly what i described.

    I ordered my dress online in pieces from two different retailers and tried it on when it arrived and it was perfect! I was lucky.

    I tried on I think 6 dresses in my price range. I teared up on the 3rd but my fam and besties were hesitant. They made me try one more which I put back because it was out of my price range and everyone cried (including me) when I came out the dressing room. My mom helped me pay for it that day and I can't wait to wear it!!! One afternoon was all I neededSmiley smile

    Too many to count!! After 2.5 months of trying on wedding dresses I found one I loved, but since I knew the wedding was still far away, I decided to keep looking. Wedding dress marathon continued for a year. I believe AT LEAST 30 dresses from 10 stores throughout 3 states--even considered getting one custom made--, but I kept thinking back to that dress, and after they almost discontinued the dress, I ended up buying it a year later. I thought I wasn't going to go with a train or at least a very small one, but this dress convinced me otherwise. =)

    I tried on 3, and found the one. Then I wasn't sure and went on to try on 30 more dresses. I went right back to the 3rd dress I tried on. I realized I was comparing all the other dresses to the one I really wanted.

    There is truly no right or wrong number for which dress is the one. i tried on tons and ended up going back to one of the first i ever put on. its different for everyone. if its your dress, its your dress regardless of whether its the first or the tenth. go with your gut!

    I tried on about 10 dresses at 1 boutique and didn't like them. I went to another and tried on one dress. It was the first dress i fell in love with. I mean i cried and i thought i def wouldn't because I'm so tough. Here is a picture of one of the dresses i didn't like.
