Oh girls.
I went dress shopping today with mommy. It was a lot smoother than I expected. I didn’t cry or have a “this is the one” moment like the girls on Say Yes to the Dress do, but there were a couple that I fell in love with.
We started at RK bridal because they were having a sample sale, but they didn’t let us take photos of me in the dress.

The one I really loved there was a Casablanca A014. I cannot find photos of it ANYWHERE on the interweb! It’s like it doesn’t exist or something!
The next one I loved at RK was this one by Mori Lee:
We then went to Davids Bridal and I tried on one I saw in a magazine and loved.
(if you look in the mirror behind me, you can see mommy in her orange shirt taking the pic hehe)
When I was at davids I loved the dress above the most. It was slim and not too heavy and felt great, I felt beautiful in it.
I also loved this one below, and in the store, not as much as the one above, but now looking at the picture I feel like this one looks best on me:
The only thing is this dress feels/seems so much bigger than I originally wanted. It’s got sooo many layers and all this material all over the place! And I would have to bustle the back and I’m not sure I like that look.
In the end it was a great day, productive, I learned what does and doesn’t look good on me, and I was surprised by what I ended up loving.
I didn’t know it takes so long for dresses to be ordered and that the alteration process was so long either, so I’m glad we started looking today since we’re 8 months out. EEP!
What do you think of the dresses?
How long did it take you to find your wedding dress?
And, did you have the OHMYGOD THIS IS THE ONE moment?

I think the dress ordering time is like so lame!! I mean, some people dont have that much time to plan…I think the industry made it all up…I swear! haha
Glad you had fun and it wasnt as bad as you thought…things will come together and you will find the right dress ^_^
I wasnt even looking for my dress when I found mine. I had one at DB that i wanted so badly, but it was a bit more than I wanted to spend.
I totally had an OMG this is THE dress moment, but I didn't cry or anything.
I love the last dress pic you posted!
AHHH you are just so gorgeous! You look just likea little model!
I think you should wait until you "know"! but you'll be a beauty no matter what!~
I like the second dress (the one with the sash around the middle) I think you could pull off one of those gorgeous figure-skimming gowns though!
I like the 3rd the best! If it makes you feel better I did have a "this is the dress moment" until the consultant brought out another dress that I loved just as much. I tried to go with the cheaper one but they were priced the exact same! I slept on it for 2 months and went back.. I ended up going with the first dress!
Also, at David's Bridal it took them 3 weeks to get my dress in. They say 6-8 weeks just so they have time in case something comes up!
Wow, you looks gorgeous!! And I love that first one with the beaded straps… looks like you are off to a fantastic start! 🙂
I think that they purposely over state the dress times with David's Bridal to avoid having a crisis if something comes in wrong or needs to be changed. When we did mine (and my bridesmaids' dresses), everything came back weeks sooner than they told me to expect…I consider that to be a good thing.
Thanks for all the input ladies!
The timing is real screwy, I guess it makes sense that they over stat the time for safety on their end.
Hopfully I'll have my THISISIT moment (and soon!)
I really like the 1st dress from DB that you tried on – with the sash & the brooch. It looks like a boutique dress.
I hate to admit, I'm one of those girls who says "it was the 1st one I tried on". I tried on a TON after, but I kept coming back to that.one.dress. Nothing compared and I did have "that" feeling. I just couldn't shake it.
i love love love the Second Dress. once its altered it will be more fitted etc. its similar to my own apart from the neckline.. so maybe I am biased?! 😛
Girl, that's my dress!!! The 2nd DB one, that you think is too big! It looks so different on you! I like that first dress, I'd love to see it on you 😀
Look what I missed! My wedding dress was much heavier than the sample I tried on. It turns out that sometimes sample dresses do not have all the petticoats that the final dress has.
