Really not loving my dress and only 39 days to go :(

I think most people have dress wobbles at some point...just think how beautiful you will look once you have all your hair and make up done with all your accessories on, you will look amazing!! try and remember why you loved it in the first place and don't let the situation with the shop closing etc bother you! obviously thats not you in the pic but the dress is lovely...if you are feeling rubbish could you treat yourself to some special jewellery or something? if you haven't already got that? you will feel very different once you are all made up and ready to go! x

I think its lovely.

But it doesnt matter what i think.

why do you feel like this about it? Is it the dress itself or the circumstances you bought it in? You could always hut preloved or ebay and see what brides are selling second hand to get yourself a bargain.

Is it something specific you don't like about it? Or are you just having a wobble as the wedding is getting nearer? I honestly thnk the dress itself is beautiful! Have you been put off it because of it being labelled a sample? If so this really makes no difference at all and only you will know anyway!

I think that your dress is beautiful. It is really simple but extremely elegant. A sweetheart neck on it will transform it completely.

My dress is also a sample dress and I had the same kind of wobbles, especially as I am altering it slightly and cant figure out what the complete version will look like.

Rest assured though, these will subside, mine are slowly! Your dress is stunning, and once you have the alerations done, and complete with your make up etc, I am sure you will feel amazing on the day.

Your other option is to try and put it up for sale and get another one? Is it worth while just going and trying others on to see if you do get a wow factor off any others? Only problem with that is that you may find one you fall in love with!

That dress is lovely. Just the right amount of sparkle and will look fabulous with a sweetheart neckline. I love the way is goes down the left hip and then across the skirt.

But if you're really really not happy, is there anything else the seamstress can do to change the dress for you? It will probably end up cheaper and less stressful than getting a new dress and some wonders can be worked by a seamstress. Just look at Vicster's dress on her report. It was so different to the dress she originally bought and it was all altered by a seamstress.

Other than that, STOP looking at other dresses. You will only torment yourself and end up feeling worse. Think about what CAN be done to the dress you already have to make it into a dress you love.x

I think it's lovely too! You bought it for a reason, you are probably just wobbling because the wedding is so close. I did the same a few weeks ago, but when I went for my fitting last week I fell in love with it all over again! When you have the neckline changed it will look different too. Hope you love your dress again soon, cos it really is very pretty!!! xxx

Dress wobbles aren't usual at all from what I've seen on here.

But I honestly think your dress is beautiful, love the way the detail is carried all the way through the dress.

Maybe it will feel different to you once it has a sweetheart neck? and you fall in love with it all over again.

Try and remind yourself exactly why you loved it in the first place, as out of 30 dresses it must have had alot going for it if you to pick it as "the one"

I think your dress is beautiful and having met you I think you will look stunning in it. When it is fitted to you and you have everything on you will feel different. Instead of thinking that the dress was a sample and the shop closed and all the negatives, look at the positives of it. Yes the shop closed but you still got your dress, yes it was a sample but what if it hadn't been and it had been ordered and you had lost your money. Think that the fact that you got it means it was meant to be.

Thank you everyone...I've just popped out to get lunch and come back to these lovely posts! I think you are all probaly right in that when I get everything on with my dress it will feel different - I seem to have a mental image of walking down the aisle and people thinking, 'don't think much to the frock!' which I know won't happen. I will stay positive - I have another fitting on Friday so will try and take some pics of me in it then.

Thanks again for your calming words! x

Just had a look at Vicsters wedding report - her dress was gorgeous - I think I'll have another word with the seamstress and see what else we could do with it.

And you are right - I really should stop looking at other dresses- I'm just tormenting myself lol x

I really like it, it's classic but beautiful and I think a sweetheart neckline will make it look prettier ?

If there is a particular aspect about the dress you want to change, just talk to the seamstress! honestly, it will all be fine. You will look beautiful in it. Its a truly lovely dress.

And yes, step away from all the other dresses. Its no good looking, you've made your choice now so stop tormenting yourself.
