    Here is the one that gives me dress regret. Is it worth the $,1525 extra dollars for this dress?

    I am having serious dress regret. But I honestly can't justify spending $1600 on a dress for ONE day! That's a huge help on a down payment on a house.

     

    Help?!

    First off, I gasped at the first dress, it is so beautiful!

    But, the styles are very different. Is there anything in the same vein as the second one that isn't so expensive?

    PS--I'm not happy for your angst but at least I'm not the only one with dress regret...

    Hard to tell without a picture of you in the first one, but I like the first one more and think it would be stunning on your body type.

    first one is a Jasmine dress. Second one I have no clue! Our wedding is vintage/rustic so the first one does go better. And I am hand making a sash with blush and creame flowers to go on it. Thanks to all those that like the first. Makes me feel better!! I just constantly have this regret. The second one would be good for a church or hotel wedding- but ours is outdoors,etc. The second makes me feel like a princess- the first one doesn't :(

     

    Thanks Ladies!!

    I think you are one of those brides who would make a paper bag look beautiful.  It's hard to tell without seeing pics of you in the first, but I think it's very pretty and delicate and feminine!  It will show off your figure better.  Keep it!

    My personal favorite would be the second dress. I think the first dress goes better with your theme and venue...they are just so different! Stick with the first one, you cant beat the price, it's gorgeous!!

    Both beautiful dresses BUT seeing how you're small, I can imagine that the first one is just perfect for you. It's stunning and classic.

    @Lyndzo:  I completely agree! I love both dresses so I can see why the decision is hard but the first one is so classic and absolutely gorgeous (:

    Does dress 2 make you $1,525 happier when you wear it? I personally like both so it's hard to say. 

    Otherwise this dress is similar to dress 2 and it's only $750.

    I love the second one, but do you love it $1600 more?

    and, Are there other options out there like the 2nd one but cheaper?

    the first one is just amazing and we all get regret but remember back to why you bought the first one :)

    if your really not liking the first one anymore then id get it made strapless it would look even more glamorus
