Not quite what I imagined but I love it....Justin Alexander 8609

Katianne, 9 April, 2013 at 21:20 Posted on Planning 0 9

I had my first appointment today at a bridal shop. I tried on lots of different dresses to see what styles suited me. When I arrived the owner asked me what I had in mind....

My response was.....

Straps

Empire line

Lace

Nothing 'big'

And this is the one I ended up loving (lol)....

    I did the same thing! I wanted tea length with straps. Ended up buying full length, big, with no straps!.

    That is a beautiful dress!! Mine is Justin Alexander as well. They are gorgeous dresses ?

    Thank you! I can't get it out of my head now...is that a good sign? It was my first bridal shop so I didn't want to make a decision there and then, as I want to go to a few others and try on some other designs. We get married next February and I've been told I need to get a move on (in a polite way ?). Loved the experience, felt amazing!

    I was the same, first shop wanted to make sure I wasn't just picking the first dress I liked! Cannot stop looking at it online tho!

    When are you next trying dresses on? I think for me that's when I'll know as if I don't find anything to stop me thinking about this one it'll be a good sign!

    It's lovely, my dress is totally different to what I had imagined too.

    Beautiful dress! I ended up going for the complete opposite of what I thought I wanted too! I would go and try on a few more dresses, if you can't get that one out of your head that is a pretty good sign it is the one!
