Dress Dilemma...I don't know what to do, opinions please?!?!?! (KINDA LONG)
Original post by dancinmyazoff
Alright, so I did ALL my research for a while and last fall I bought my dress (Maggie Sottero Capri) and absolutely love it. I can look all day at dresses in magazines, online, wedding pictures, etc. and I've found NOTHING that I love more than my dress...until now The lovely Nicole (TheFutureMrsM) posted her Kenneth Pool Degas dress the other day and I was like Well I kept going on the Kenneth Pool website and staring at the dress so I decided to go try it on to get it out of my mind because it probably wouldn't look good on me....WELL last night I went by myself and tried it on and OMGoodness I can't even tell you how amazing it looked on. It's even more beautiful in person. I'm now torn and in love with two dresses (lol sounds funny but it's better than being in love with two people ). I wish I had pictures of both dresses on me....but regardless they're both soooo different...and so are their price tags. My Maggie is actually in already but I haven't gone to try on 'my' dress. Now I have no clue what to do I haven't told my mom about it yet I don't know what she'd say
Please help

That's a tough one.... Try to envision yourself walking down the aisle and which dress do you see yourself in?
both
wear one for the ceremony, one for the reception NO JK
I actually thought about that already
hahahaha, ok im being a bad influence lol...melissa you are a gorgeous girl and either one you pick you will look gorgeous in, don't you wish at times like this we could just show FH the dress...when i went dress shopping and was undecisive thats all i wanted to do, it wouldve been SOOOO EASY!!!
Ugh yes that's what I keep wanting to do just show him both then whichever he liked better, regardless of anything, I would choose.....GRRRRR but nooo why would it ever be that easy!!!!!
show him like 20-30 pics of wedding dresses and see whathis comments are in them, put these 2 in the mix

I love the Kenneth pool dress. But I would go try on your dress and see what you think. You might have forgotten what it feels and looks liek on you. and then if you are still undecided try on the KP one again.

Thats what I had to do!! I put about 15 pics of dresses in front of hi8m and made him pick which ones he liked and why he liked them. He narrowed it down to 2.. and one of them was my 1st choice.

I personally like the Maggie Dress better. Would you lose the money you already put on the Maggie dress. Which one can you see yourself in on the wedding day? I know its a tough decision, but i would try and think practically too, because the money you would spend toward the kenneth pool dress can be put toward something else for the wedding.

That is what i would say. I realy think if you picked that dress then you really loved it its just not a new thing anymore and you saw something new and went.. OH GOD. try on your other dress and try to avoid looking at any more dresses otherwise your going to drive yourself bonkers.

i am going to be evil but truthful. Did you buy your dress all ready? If so your going to make your mother buy you another dress?
Once that is answered I will deliver my comment.
Yes we bought the Maggie already...but honestly if we went for the Kenneth Pool Dress I'd sell my dress then put that money toward the KP and then 'I' would pay the rest. I wouldn't ever force my mom to pay for anything...I'm usually the one begging her and my dad to not pay for things lol.

if your paying the diff. and selling your dress then do what you feel is best. I am just down for people making another person pay for something because now you changed your mind.
Also i hope brides who haven't ordered their dress yet really read these 'i change my mind' posts and realize to wait as long as possible to order their dresses just because people do change their minds.

This may be stupid, but this is what my FH always makes me do when I am having trouble making a decision (which is often lately)...make one dress 'heads' and one dress 'tails,' then flip a coin. If one wins and you feel happy, then that was your choice all along. If one wins and you feel disapointed, then your heart wants the other and you should make that your choice.
For the record, I think both are beautiful and you can't go wrong.

that's what i did but needless to say fh knows which dress i have because he knows i went to the designer and came back with a dress and that was the only dress by that designer in the pile...oh wellllll. he doesnt know what it looks like on
anyway...im sure ure first one is still amazing on...but yeah...if something is 'missing' then i guess go for the other one. but what would u do with the first one and do u care about the $ etc. and all that no fun stuff.
