To women who usually wears casual clothes (PJs, sweats and hoodies), how did you feel wearing a wedding dress?

Will tell you in five years
I loved it, for the day. I made sure the dress I picked was comfortable and I could move in it.
Most other days in my life, is a big nah to dresses.
Like a princess.
I loved the dress and I looked _awesome_ in it. Literally the only thing you have to do on your wedding day is look amazing and feel happy. It is completely different from real life, so the fact that I usually live in men’s jeans and oversized sweatshirts didn’t enter into it at all.
I felt like a princess. I made sure it was suuuper comfortable.

Didn’t bother. I wore a simple dress that wasn’t horrible and eloped. No regrets.
Nice, until people started looking at me 😅 I was fighting off a panic attack most of my wedding
Hated every second of it. I felt so awkward and out of place. I have a strong aversion to fancy things. I honesty puto zero effort into picking it out. I think it was the 3rd one I tried on and just said “that’ll do”. I looked great but whatever.
I feel sexy in anything outside of sweats/pjs/scrub pants. But also uncomfortable lol.
I felt like a princess, like I was worth celebrating, like it was my day to be celebrated rather than another day to get things done.
It was amazing.
I feel incredibly feminine when I scrub up. I’m now thinking to upgrade from always dressing like a teenage boy to more feminine stuff on the daily. I mean, why not! It makes me feel so good!
Like a burrito wrapped in anxiety and satin. Gorgeous, but also counting the minutes till I can get back in my hoodie.
I hated dress shopping but the day of I felt so beautiful. I was so excited to marry my husband and for him to see me all done up.
My wedding dress was really funky so I had fun wearing it. Got to wear it again for Halloween after that
I hated it lmao my wedding was a city hall one. My mom wanted me to wear a dress & to appease her, I did. Dont get me wrong, the dress was beautiful but I saw it as an excessive waste of money for something i can’t wear again. It was also really heavy for me because it had a long train & people kept stepping on it accidently.
Sad…because it wasn’t the dress I’d wanted or dreamed of…just the one i could afford at the time.
I’d actually walked out of several bridal boutiques in tears because the dresses I’d liked were out of my pitifully small price range. I ended up in a bridal resale shop walking out with a beaded monstrosity that I didn’t even like but it had been the least hideous gown in the shop and i could afford it, so I bought the damn thing.
I couldn’t do it, felt off for me. Ended up in a kick ass jumpsuit!
Edit: grammar
It was glorious
Weird. I’m so not a princess type so I didn’t want anything poofy, sexy or with a long train. It looks more like a normal party dress. And I had my sister in law make a black veil with a rustic look to take me further away from the princess idea. And I bought a lime green shawl too. I just looked like someone in a pretty, white dress on my way to someone else’s party.
