how many times have you tried on your wedding dress or wish you can try on it again?

mrsrobinvalentine, on November 18, 2013 at 3:31 PM Posted in Community Conversations 0 28

I've tried mines on only one time. Believe it or not; I think about driving by the bridal salon to do it again. Some times I searched the web, just to get another look at it. Am I obsessed? I know some brides buy a dress, fall in love with it & then see another one that makes her 2nd guess. Well, I'm not feeling any buyer's remorse nor am I wishing for another dress. I just want to wear mines one more time. I dream about how my FH will respond when he 1st see me in it. What is your take?

    Considering I just found my gown a month ago, I've only had to wait a month. I pick it up from David's on the 22nd - final fitting.

    Calm. I am really really calm.

    It hasn't hit me yet.

    I have only tried on my dress twice, both times on the same day. I tried it on at the boutique, and then we drove to my mom's and I tried it on at her house. I probably have only been in it for about 3 minutes total.

    I am so excited about having it that I am pestering my friend to come over so I can try it on again. (Can't zip it up without help.)

    I have been in my dress 4 times. The first time I was alone, went back with my cousin and then my mom to be sure. After ordering it and getting my actual dress, they had me try it on to make sure everything was ok. I won't be back in it until March/April. I still loved it the last time I tried it on!

    I've tried mine on 4 times. when i first saw it at bridal shop A, when i tried it on and ultimately purchased it at bridal shop B; when it arrived at bridal shop B; and last week at the tailor's for my first fitting!

    i just love it and can't wait to try it on again and wear it all day in february! no remorse or 2nd guessing here.

    I got my dress pre-owned, so it's been with me at home for a few months. I've put it on twice, but I can't wait to get it fitted properly and see how it is actually going to look on the big day (the bodice is way too loose right now Smiley tongue)

    I only tried it on once, which was when I purchased it. I have to wait 4-6 months before mine comes in and I am so excited for that day when I get to put it on again! And yes, I totally have googled it to see it again. I also look at the pic my sister took of me in it. Obsessed.. maybe Smiley winking

    I tried mine on twice. Once in December, and once in August when I ordered it.

    I just got the call last week that it's in and I CANNOT WAIT to try it on again... this time in a size much closer to mine, without having to use clamps to tighten it. Smiley smile

    Before I got married I tried my dress on a total of 4 times (ouside of my fittings). In a week I will have been married 3 months and so I have had the day to wear the dress with all the bells and whistles and I STILL find myself wanting to take it out of it's wrapping to put it on again. I think the feeling never goes away if you have a wonderful experience while in it, at least for me.

    Three times, I think-- when I picked it out, for the first fitting, at the wedding (missed the second fitting, and picked it up at closing time the night before the wedding, so didn't bother trying it on then-- it would either fit or not!). Now it's all clean, in a box, and I would LOVE to wear it again, but I worry about getting it dirty, so I'm trying to wait for our 25th anniversary (only 10 more years!) when DH promised to have a big party and I could wear it again.

    I've only tried mine on once, and it was the sample and way too small for me. I look at my dress online daily. I called the shop, and they said my dress will be here by late Feb. I am MOST DEF going to be swinging by the shop before then to squeeze myself back into that sample!!!

    I tried it on the day we bought it, then I tried it on at the alterations appointment. It's in my mom's closet and I can't wait to put it on again for the bridal portraits. I don't want to put it on too much because I don't want to get used to it. lol.

    I have tried "my dress"on 2 times. The first time when I went to look for dresses with my BMs and Mom, and the second time when I came back the next weekend to try it on for my grandmother. Friday will be the third time for me, my dress came in two weeks ago and I will be trying on my ACTUAL dress for the first time.
