Wedding dresses and "Say Yes To The Dress" question..

[CKBear]

I just bought my wedding dress a couple of weeks ago, I had five people with me. The dress I ended up with neither one of my grandmother's liked, but I loved it and everyone else said it was the perfect dress for me. The most important thing is that I loved it and thought it made me look beautiful.

amyy, your dress is beautiful!

A question for you and all other recent brides - (I haven't bought a wedding dress in 19 years), when I go shopping with my DD this week for hers, can I expect that a 50% deposit is required at time of purchase or is it larger than that?

marthachick & suzannen-thanks for the compliments on my dress. I sometimes wonder when you know all these people looked at but didn't say anything

I don't know about the deposit as I paid for it in full that day. I do think this is a great time of year to go shopping as I have heard of other stores having sales on the 09 dresses.

I would think it probably depends on the store. I had to put 50% down for mine.

I bought my dress back in January, and there's no way I would have gone by myself. I always had to have opinions. I must have made at least 6-7 trips. My mom was always with me. And most of the other times my grandmother came as well as my sister and one or two friends. I definitely had to have their approval. If no one liked a dress I tried on, I wouldn't want it. I was very lucky in the fact that everyone loved the dress that I loved (except my sister). My grandmother really loved it and I think her opinion was probably most important to me.
