When you watch all those bridal shows (Say Yes to the Dress, etc), they just KNOW, and have tears streaming down their faces. I tried on a dress that I liked the best of the 10 or so I've tried on (and the hundreds I've seen online). It's gorgeous, it flatters me, I looked great in it. It's exactly suited to our venue, and it met all the criteria I had in mind for my dress. It just didn't give me that "it's the one!" feeling.
Did you all have that feeling? Or is it a myth? Or maybe it's just not the type of person I am?
I think it depends on the bride. Whenever I accompanied someone dress shopping, there was never tears (and if there was it was the MOB crying because her daughter is getting married--not the dress). Sure there were ABSOLUTE nos and a few maybes but when she made her decision, it wasn't as dramatic as they make it on the show. For me, I tried on a few gowns, all looked awesome but when I slid into the one I chose- the first thing I noted was that it wasn't itchy on my ankles like the others and has a "ahhhhh" feeling before I saw it on. It looked pretty in the mirror and was a great price so I said "hey-what the heck, I'll buy it..." and I did. So it might be a myth or it just might be an "ah-ha!" moment for some brides, but not for me.
