Re: DILEMMA lol

If you buy the Mona Lisa Royale, are you going to regret that decision and wish that you weren't concerned with price and people's opinions and wish you would have bought the ostrich dress?
Try to think if you are going to regret missing out on one dress over another in a few months, years, etc.

Also, I agree with what Colleen said earlier... about getting the Mona Lisa Royale and then the shorter ostrich dress as a second dress so you get to experience both.

Varvara.....

I absolutely LOVE dress #1 on you....it fits you perfectly!!!!!!!!!!!! Do what makes you happy and I think that is dress #1.....you look stunning!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Try not to base the decision on the cost...base it on what you love and can picture yourself walking down the aisle with!

Re: DILEMMA lol

The first dress is totally cool and looks great on you.

The Monalisa one looks amazing on you too!

They both look great and you will look absolutely stunning in both. (I think the second one makes your waist look teensy)

Which dress do you picture yourself walking down the aisle in? Which one would FH like better?

Re: DILEMMA lol

Both look perfect on you but I have to say dress #1 seems to be more you. IF thats what your looking for then get it, It looks hot on you!! Not everyone can pull that dress off (I know I couldnt) but you def. can!!!

Re: DILEMMA lol

IMO, Hmmmm u r better off with option #1. Either way it comes out to the same, however, I really love #1. #2 is beautiful, but like you said its really common. I like to stand out too, so number 1 would be my ticket.

Re: DILEMMA lol

Barbara... Number 1 is totally you!!!!! I don't know why you would even consider the second dress.. Stop vomitting and go order dress one because that is your dress!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: DILEMMA lol

DRESS #1!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

you look STUNNING! Its totally different and I feel like its more 'you' based on what you've said. I would totally go for it!

Re: DILEMMA lol

I say dress #1. Its so modern and it seems like its what you are looking for. If you are already saving on photography by not having your dream photographer then maybe you can splurge on your dress. But i would definitely take a couple of days off from the stress of dress shopping and then go back next week and see if you feel the same way. Good Luck.

You said it yourself - You love it. You keep going back to it.

So where's the dilemma? That's how I knew when I found my dress, I just couldn't stop thinking about it.

Sounds to me like you found THE ONE Barb!!!!!

I couldnt agree more!!

I LOVE the first dress (and totally wish I could rock something like that). Go with what you feel is right! From what you said, it also sounds like that dress is more 'you'. Why pick something that isn't 'you' for your wedding? jmo.

Re: DILEMMA lol

oh Barb.....
I'm with everyone else: go with the 1st one. totally YOU.

and if ur FH getting sick of ur dress anxieties I can lend u mine to bich to. he was the one who talked me off the ledge when I freaked over mine. he also can give u an honest man's opinion.
and I told u this dress business is not worth getting urself sick over.

and again go with dress #1! I love it on u!

Re: DILEMMA lol

I had a similar problem (still have it actually. but I think I made up my mind about it)... I preferred the mermaid/trumpet style lacy dress and when I put on the traditional gown (much like the 2nd dress you posted), everyone went nuts and even I thought it was classy and beautiful and started to think about changing MY idea of what I wanted.

Then I got home and did some research and soooo many brides have that SAME traditional (yet beautiful) dress. I realized then that It wasn't for me and I need to stick to my guns because otherwise I'll be sooooo unhappy.

Go with the first one. It's beautiful and you love it. So it's more expensive... what's an extra $2-3K going to get you with it comes to downpayments for a house? GET THE DRESS MAN!

Becca2010 Posted: Aug 06, 2009 09:53 AM

Re: DILEMMA lol

IMHO, I probably wouldn't go looking for a dress like the first one, but I do think it's really pretty; I DO NOT think it's ugly.
I guess what I like most about it is that it's different. Apparently, that's the most important thing to me right now.

If you looked like an ugly hooch I'd tell you, but you really don't lol

Re: DILEMMA lol

Personally I don't like the first dress for myself because its not me but it seems like it really suits you. I love the monalisa is absolutely gorgeous on you and you said you keep going back to it.

I think that what i would do is get the monalisa for the ceremony and get the second dress. Best of both worlds.
