Shopping for a bridal gown, veil, and wedding jewelry is one of the highlights of planning a wedding. In fact, many brides have been dreaming about their wedding gown since they were little girls. But what happens if you buy a wedding gown and start having second thoughts about it? These are some tips on how to handle wedding dress regrets.
If there is one piece of advice every bridal consultant wishes engaged women would listen to, it is stop looking at wedding gowns once you have picked yours! There will always, always be another beautiful gown to admire, and you could shop forever, but then you would have nothing to wear on your wedding day. After you have placed a deposit on your bridal gown, the best thing you can do for yourself is to close the dress shopping chapter of your wedding planning. And besides, you will still get to shop for wedding jewelry, a veil, a headpiece, shoes, and lots of other gorgeous accessories.
But what if you just can not shake the feeling that you have made a bad choice and ordered the wrong gown for your wedding? 99% of the time, this second guessing is simply pre-wedding jitters. Call up the bridal salon and make an appointment to try on the sample gown again. The chances are very strong that as soon as you put it on you will remember exactly what you loved about it. If you still are not sure, try on a few other dresses, and you will probably be reminded that your original dress is still the one for you.
Sometimes brides love their wedding gowns, but others plant seeds of doubt in their minds. A common scenario is that the bride goes with her mom to pick out a dress. After she orders her gown, she takes a few pictures of herself in the sample to show her friends. Not having seen the gown in person, the bride's friends start saying that they do not love it. Why? Because pictures taken when you are wearing an ill-fitting sample gown when your hair and makeup are not done just never look that good. Or you show your friends pictures of your dress online and it looks weird on the model, even though it is spectacular on you. A good way to save yourself a ton of anxiety is not to show a lot of people photos of your dress. Share it only with your best friends who you know will be supportive, and let everyone else be surprised at your grand entrance on your wedding day.
With all these tips in mind, there may still be occasions when brides come to realize that they have definitely chosen a wedding gown that they no longer love. At that point, it is time to re-select. You only have one wedding day (hopefully!), And you deserve to feel incredible for it. You will also be living with your wedding photos for the rest of your life, and it would be a terrible shame to hate the way you look in your pictures. Some salons may allow you to transfer a deposit from one gown to another, but most will not. In that case, you can sell the first gown online and treat yourself to the wedding dress that you really love. Just promise yourself that you will really stop shopping after that!
Choosing a wedding gown is an emotional decision. In most cases, regrets are unfounded, and when you take another look at your dress, you will fall in love with it all over again. And just remember that your fiance is going to think that you are the most beautiful bride in the world whatever dress you choose to wear.
