When Should You Buy Your Wedding Dress
Hi. I recently got engaged in November 2003 and I am planning for around an Oct. 2005 wedding. I started trying on dresses for fun and i think by now it has to be over 50 dresses that i`ve tried on. I have liked many and i found one that i really would consider. My problem is that I feel its to soon to purchase because I have so much time yet....I am so afraid that the couple that I like will get discounted. Can you please help me because I am so afraid to purchase that I will find something else that I like.....
Also, when do you really know its the ONE!!!!?? Thanks for your time.

I bought my dress in september of 2003 and im marrying in may 2004. Just depends on how soon you want to buy your dress. If you plan on losing a lot of weight and stuff many people hold off. But if you think by chance your dress will get discounted, then hold off.
As for if knowing its the right one. Have some close family and friends go with you. Try on dresses and make sure its what you love too and IF they CRY cause it looks to beautiful on you then i think it`s THE one. :) Good Luck

Jessica -- I too didn`t know when I`d know it was "the one." Yet, when I found it, I knew it. This is a pretty worthless answer, but trust me, when you try on the dress you know you should get married in, you will know. You will look at yourself in the mirror and have no doubts, you will know.
Be sure you check with the salons as to the length of time the dress takes to get shipped. Most designer dresses take from 3-9 months, some longer.
Good luck and have fun!!!
