Is it normal to hate your wedding dress before the wedding?

I am really starting to freak out. I am getting married in 2 months, and all the planning and detail work is right on track, and I have had my dress for about 3 months now. I all of a sudden (over the past 2 weeks) have begun to HATE my dress. I went for the first fitting, and I just did not feel beautiful. When I first bought it, I tried on dozens of gowns, and cried when I put it on, it was that beautiful.

Is what I am feeling normal? I know I am just freaking over nothing, because I cannot name one single feature about the dress that I don't like, just overall have begun to hate the thing. Any advise or stories anyone can share with me?

Update:

I swear it is not cold feet, I have been with Dave for almost 10 years. I think I am just obsessing about details at this point. My friends all LOVE the dress on me, maybe I am just stressed.

    Hey,

    Its completely normal to be feeling doubtful about anything before your wedding. I remember i had a thing about my flowers before my wedding i just didnt want them white and gold even though id been so happy about my descision when i ordered them, i wanted them red but i thought it was too close to the wedding at that time and i left them like that and i regret it to this day!!!

    SO my advise is to change whatever you dont feel right about, even a little change could make all the difference. Do whatever you feel right with because its your wedding and its a once in a lifetime experience!

    I wish you have a lovely day enjoy yourself and im sure everything will be fine!!!!

    Take care and Good luck!

    You need to CTF down! First, if you cried when you put it on then it is the right dress. Is is hanging where you can see it every second of the day? You need to move it to another room. If you stare at something long enough you will begin to get tired of it. Hang it up and keep it covered. You are stressing about everything and if you are having a bad day then you may just be disgusted at the least little thing. This way after a couple of days or a week, take a peek at the dress and see if you don't feel excited. Good luck, take a deep breath, and chill.

    It is not normal to hate the dress. It's usually loved all around forever.

    Seems like you're really getting cold feet.

    Either way, a dress is nothing. You are getting married. The point SHOULD be that you are starting a new life with your husband.

    Unfortuntely, people obsess over such stupid pointless things, and than the wedding becomes nothing but materialistic.

    initiate finding on line at kinds which you like and decide the final shape which you truly desire. do you like a ballgown, mermaid, a-line? this could narrow it down plenty. you in addition to mght would desire to decide for what form of wedding ceremony you like. a super foofy ballgown ought to look abnormal at a coastline wedding ceremony, jointly as a attractive sheath could be irrelevant at maximum church weddings. circulate to the food market and grab some bridal magazines and tear out what you like. i does not propose in simple terms walking right into a bridal shop having no theory. the two you and the representative would finally end up very annoyed. yet once you're waiting, do not hesitate to objective on some slightly differnet kinds. particularly situations, you never understand whta seems reliable until you try.
