I heard an interesting comment recently about deciding on a wedding gown. The person pointed out that buying a wedding gown is, and is SUPPOSED to be be, an emotional purchase. That doesn't mean everyone will cry, but what it does mean is that you are using different criteria to make the decision than you do most purchases. As you shop, you should pay as much attention to how you feel as what you think. Your brain may tell you that a gown looks good on, but if it doesn't make your heart beat a little faster, then it's probably not the one for you. It may sound a little trite, but I firmly believe that if you really listen to your own inner voice, you will know when you find "the one." Sometimes that voice isn't easy to hear amidst what can be the chaos of dress shopping, but if you narrow it down and just take some time, one dress will stand out from the crowd.
So, allow yourself some emotional space when you shop. Don't try to get in every store and include every friend and family member possible. Choose your stores carefully, and choose your shopping companion(s) even more carefully. Make it easy on yourself, so that you can find a gown that is truly "you."
