I bought my dress!: Posted: Jun 15, 2009 12:34 PM; I can't believe I bought my dress yesterday!

I haven't really been in the mood to plan since we got engaged in early March. My idea of "planning" has been slinking around these boards, reading posts... and watching "Bridezillas" on WEtv.

Last week we came down to my parents' house (a 20 hour drive) for a couple weeks to visit. Yesterday I went to a La Sposa trunk show (where I was treated miserably after they realized they didn't have one of the dresses I wanted), but decided to go to one more Salon before heading back. I tried on one dress and bought it!

My wedding is in MAY! I could have waited until the end of the summer... or longer... but I got it. I got a good price (from what I understand) and got the dress I've been in love with for over a year! I get it in December :)

Re: I bought my dress!: Posted: Jul 1, 2009 4:24 PM Go to message in response to: brownegirl; The dress is Madeira by La Sposa... or that's what I thought??

I'm getting very nervous...

Everyone at the salon was very polite and spent their time with me. I tried
on the dress and bought it without thinking because I was so excited about how perfect it was. As
I was signing the papers I realized I could be making a big mistake...

When
I got home, I read all these negative reviews about the vendor... and all about how they
scam brides into believing they are ordering a designer gown, when
really they are just ordering the STYLE of the gown (which these people
make there at the shop...then sew designer tags on). I'M FREAKING OUT
NOW because I already paid and I simply don't have money for another
dress.

I'm so disappointed with how irresponsible I was. Please do not make the same mistake.
