I tried on wedding dresses for the first time today. I was very pleasantly surprised- I looked great in all of them (I tried on about 8). The women working there kept saying how everything worked because I'm "tall and thin." And yes, I realize they suck up a little because they're trying to sell me something, but I do agree that I'm well-proportioned. There were two dresses I really liked, and both were very much in my price range, but I've got over a year and it's fun to try dresses on (especially when they all look good!), so I'm going to visit a few more shops. Also, they only had a couple mermaid & trumpet styles, which I still like the best, so I want to try more.
