Misconceptions About Finding “The One”

“WHEN YOU KNOW, YOU KNOW”

Some try on the first gown and, “Boom! THAT’S THE ONE!” Others do not get to “The One” until dress 27. But one thing you may not know is that the dress will speak to you. Even if it’s a whisper—you’ll hear it.

MISCONCEPTION 1: “If I don’t cry, it can’t be my dress.”

Not every bride is going to cry. You may not be a super emotional person, and that is okay! It is all about how you feel when you’re in the dress. Don’t compare your reaction to anyone else’s reaction—just be yourself.

MISCONCEPTION 2: “I need my family to love the dress.”

We cannot stress enough that you are the one wearing your gown. The person waiting at the end of your glorious entrance is going to take one look at you and be blown away. They are going to love you no matter what you’re wearing. Your family is there to support you, hold your hand, and pass you tissues. At the end of the day, they will love whatever gown you choose because you love it and you look and feel beautiful in it.

MISCONCEPTION 3: “This dress won’t look good on me because of my size.”

Whether you are petite, plus size, or in between you won’t know if the dress looks good until you try it on. Your size does not matter, if you love everything about the dress(the way it looks on you, feels, design, etc.) and it speaks to you that is your dress. Size does not determine what type of dress you should get.

Dress shopping isn’t all you see on TV. Every experience is different for every person. Enjoy the moment you finally find “the one,” no matter if you laugh, cry, scream, or just smile.
