♡Let’s not let Myths take over, let’s clear them up♡
Myth: I need to explore all my options when looking for THE dress!
The thing is trying on 30+ gowns at 5 different bridal shops actually makes your decision a lot harder. Out of the 30+ gowns you have tried on, you now have 1 to 2 favorites at each shop, you’ve narrowed it down to 8 or 10 favorites. Giving yourself way too many options. You are now just looking at a bunch of pretty gowns and forget you are trying to find your wedding gown. You’ve become so overwhelmed with the choices that it is going to suppress the “feeling” you’re looking for in finding THE one. You can believe me or not. I have a feeling a lot of women will not believe me and that is okay. For those who do I’ll accept a thank you later :)
Our advice is, there are always going to be better dresses, because the styles and trends change within months. There is always going to be a better house, car, or a better fiancé; because we all know Channing Tatum is better, but when you find a gown, you love and could see yourself walking down the aisle towards Channing Tatum ‘ahem’ I mean your fiancé in, you have found YOUR gown. There is always going to be pretty gowns, but don’t put too much pressure on yourself and trust your decision. I promise, you need to have fun with this one because the rest of wedding planning will have your head spinning.
Myth: I’ll know it’s the dress when I cry.
We watch this all the time on Say Yes To The Dress, when Randy puts the veil on, the water works come. Every bride is different! This is the truth! You don’t necessarily need to cry to know it’s your wedding gown, you will just know because it crosses everything off the checklist and it out does the rest. Just like your fiancé!
We’ve experienced brides that try on two gowns, and know it is the first one. We’ve seen brides come back to our shop multiple times and say yes at the third appointment. We’ve had brides cry, scream, jump up and down, ask the party to choose one, say yes all alone with no party, we’ve seen it all and I can tell you ‘Every bride is different.’ I truly mean it and we all love it!
