    I assume the one your bought is the 1st one?  I hope so, cause I love that one, WAY more than the others.  It's unique and beautiful!

    You're welcome!  Dresses 2 and 3 are pretty, but in my opinion, a little "forgettable" on you.  The 1st one is a winner!!!

    I love the second dress! They all look great on you, but I think the second one has a classic, elegant quality that is just amazing!

    I struggle with indecision myself when it comes to some of my own purchases, and I ALWAYS seem to have to reassure myself that I, indeed, made the right decision.  It's very difficult to ever be satisfied and to relax when you have this tendency, so I TOTALLY understand what you're experiencing! On the other hand, I never seem to have any trouble seeing the "right" choice for others, and I am able to offer facts in support of my thoughts.

    You definitely made the right decision. Although, as others have said, all three dresses are very pretty, the first dress is the right choice for you, and I'll be happy to give you a list of reasons I believe this:

    1.  The top of the gown you chose is far more elegant and stunning than the tops of the other two gowns. Although you'll have pictures of yourself from all angles, many of your photos will be close up, and the top of that gown is just gorgeous, vs. a much more average-looking wedding dress look to the tops of the other two.

    2.  The lace on the bottom of the gown you chose also is far more pronounced and stunning than the lace on the second dress.  Although the second dress is beautiful, it definitely has more of a "I've seen this so many times before" kind of look to it than does the unique, gorgeous lace on the gown you selected.

    3. The blingy "belt" that appears to be sewn into the waist of the gown you chose is elegant and beautiful. It stands out but not so much that it would compete with the ornate lace of the gown.

    4. Although you have a fabulous figure and could wear any of these three dresses, the gentle A-line of the gown you chose is going to look great from any angle in your pictures, and you're going to be more comfortable wearing it.  You indicated that your family loved the mermaid/fit-n-flare style of the third dress, but if you're not comfortable in that gown, that's going to annoy you throughout the day/evening.

    5. Most important of all -- You are absolutely adorable, and I can tell that you enjoy standing out (in a good way) vs. preferring to be more subtle and blend in. On your wedding day, you should stand out more than any other day of your life. You definitely need a gown with a "WOW" factor.  The first dress has it.  The other two, though beautiful gowns, do not.

    I hope this helps!

    I looked at all your pictures before I read the post/poll, and I thought to myself, "Gosh, I hope she bought the first dress because it's really the most stunning one on her, and I'd hate to say that if she bought a different one." Needless to say, I was relieved that you bought dress #1. It's totally stunning on you. Don't doubt it. :)

    I also did not read your post very carefully before making my decision and thought you hadn't yet bought any of these.  I think they all look great on you, but I liked the originality of the first.

    Besides the fact that you look awesome in it, the way you're standing in the first photo tells me how much you love it. You rock that dress girl, it's definitely the one. Stop worrying! Smile
