Hello all! I'm not sure if I should start looking for my dress now or wait another month or so. I feel that's it's too early to start looking. Or maybe I could start looking, but not commit to buying one yet. My wedding date is May 30th, 2010. I don't know what I should do. Can someone please advice??? Thanks much! :)

Got engaged: 12/25/08
Started hitting bridal salons for dress: 2/28/09
Spent several months looking through magazines and web sites before I started and along the way.
Took 2 months and 7 salons from Glendale to South Orange County to finally find my dream dress...and I thought I knew exactly what I wanted before heading in. Funny thing is, I did know exactly what I wanted but couldn't find all the elements in one dress. Finally did - thank God!
Ordered my gown: June 1st, 2009
It should arrive no later than mid-September which gives me plenty of time for alterations.
Wedding date is April 16, 2010
Suggestions: Have ideas but be flexible. Tell sales girls what you want and look for gowns in the store but let them also bring you things they think you'll like...saw my dress on a hanger and passed right by it, but when the sales lady brought it in and asked me to put it on I couldn't believe how much I loved it.
Depending on your size - weight may be an issue. I am super thin (5'8" and 110 lbs) and am hoping to put on a few pounds before the big day but have never been able to for most of my life. So I opted for a corset back gown...gives me the freedom to grow one way or the other.
FYI - They say you should order your gown at least 6-9 months before the big day...and you'll need some time to shop for it, so I say start now! Have fun and sending well wishes!
For me i'm pretty much the type of person, that when i see a certain dress, i just know it's the one that i'm suppose to have.. even without trying it on.. Its happened w. my sweet sixteen dress and prom dress, which both I adore..
If you feel that you have an itch to try on dresses.. go ahead and scratch it!!! it's fun! and that ring that you have on your finger gives you lots of things to do now! So enjoy!!!
I started looking around this past weekend. It felt so good, to just be there, browsing through a variety of dresses. I felt like a princess looking for her perfect dress!!!
Thanks for the big push! :)
Love,
Evy...
