Totally off topic and I'm sorry if this isn't in the right place but I just need to talk to like minded women. I'm getting married in December & everything is sorted/booked apart from my wedding dress. I'm going to look at dresses tomorrow with my mum but I'm full of anxiety. I'm not really a dress kind of girl anyway but I have real self esteem issues. I have no idea on what shape or colour or any idea what I want. My stepdaughter made me go and try some dresses on the other day, she helped me pick out a range of dresses but I didn't like any of them and I ended up leaving the shop in tears. She liked all the mermaid styles on me, but I felt that they highlighted the parts of my body that I don't like. When I buy new clothes I only do it when my OH is with me, so he can give me an honest opinion (like my mother will) so doing this without him is strange. I'm worried that im not going to find a dress that I like or feel beautiful in, I'm vast running out of time I feel. The women in the shop told me it was minimum of 6 months for delivery and 8 weeks for alterations which literally takes me to a few weeks before the wedding. Did anyone else feel like this trying dresses on? How did you know what you wanted? Do you really get that "this is my dress" moment?
