Why do I always make such hasty choices????

Why do I always make such hasty choices????

I am so stressed and a total mental case. I hate the bridesmaid dress I chose now that I know so much more about different brands. I guess since everyone has paid their deposit I really cannot do anything about it but I am sort of seriously upset.

have you seen it in person recently? maybe if you did you would see what it was in the first place that you liked so much that made you want it

1. Maybe you won't hate them once the girls get them and try them on.

2. Try getting really cool DOJ for them and/or some unique flowers that may change the look of them?

What don't you like about them? I saw the pics in your album and they look stunning and classic. You really shouldn't stress! They are beautiful. You've made a fantastic choice.

I agree- maybe go back to the store where the sample is and see why you chose it in the first place.

Thanks for the kind words and support everyone.

I am getting a monogram necklace in 14K gold as the DOJ. And the flowers will be green cymbidium orchids. That I know and they will be lovely.

My issue is that I only looked in one place, Vera Wang. I didn't even know about other designers like Lazaro and Jenny Yoo who have these more modern looking dresses in shantung and other fabrics besides the old run-of-the-mill satin. Now I see these other dresses in fabulous colors and wish I had them. The other issue I have is the style. I would have preferred another style but went with what flattered most of my maids. However, I dislike the straps and worry they are childish (my bridesmaids are 33-35 years old).

Waaah. Why didn't I look around first

this is happening to me again and again

was it a large deposit? if you seriously hate the dress maybe you can ask for a store credit and go somewhere else for the dresses. You can always use the store credit for accessories or FG dresses.

Your BM dresses are beautiful!! But if you really dont like them then I would go back ASAP and find out if you can change them!!

I bought them at Vera Wang itself and it was a 50% deposit on 10 dresses. So it's not a realistic thing to go elsewhere but I did just email my bridesmaids and my sales associate and may end up choosing another style. Probably not though, I think I am just losing it. Panicking etc.

Thank you so much!!! I may try to see if I can get another style or maybe my maids will calm me down and tell me the dress is nice. Thanks!!
