Help please!! -- wedding dress dilema!!

jchamberlain, 31 August, 2012 at 16:38 Posted on Planning 0 23

Hi i need help i have stupidly taken my mum wedding dress shopping today (i already have my dress) because my mum hadnt come with me to choose my dress that i have and she was upset about missing my special moment.

i choose my dress last year fell madly deeply in love with it couldnt get it out of my mind so when we booked the wedding this year i went and got it (i tried a few others on but nothing compared) now today i have found another one that im in love with and its completely and uterly differnet from my dress!!

i now cant get that out of my head!

im also on a timescale for dresses as i have only 19 weeks left today!

    Which one do you love more? and can you afford to change the dress? which one do you feel you would be most happiest wearing all day? hope you can decide Smiley smile i can only imagine how hard it must be x

    First of all, can you flash pics of the dresses? Preferably with you in them.

    Secondly, can you afford to buy another dress, realistically.

    I prefer this one. Dresses like this don't suit everyone and if you fell in love with it, it was obviously for a reason. Can you really not remember how amazing you felt in the first one?

    No my mum has only seen me properly in the dress today she has seen photos of the dress though.

    i think i should stick to my guns as i couldnt get this dress out of my head for over a year and was over the moon to have ordered it i do love it completely as it is very different

    i think cause the size is to small im concerned as i have to loose weight to get it to fit me perfectly which i know i will do as im detemined i suppose i will feel a lot better when its on and it fits like it did last year and i always said i wanted a princess dress thats different

    thank you for both liking my dress most its made me happy x

    I much prefer the second one. I am not a fan of the neckline on the first, it looks a bit space age?

    The first one is amazing. I can see why you fell in love with it. Even though it's not the kind of dress I would personally wear, I think it's fantastic - so different with the detailing around the chest. Keep that one! And FLASHES of you in it, please!!!! ?

    A good point- Im not a fan of Ivory, satin long dresses as a whole! That negates about 90% of Hitched really. Dosnt mean anyone is right or wrong, just different!

    I absolutely love the first one! It looks amazing and that bodice is fab! The second one is so generic and looks like every other dress seen before. Stick to your guns and always follow your gut feeling. I think you'd be disappointed and might regret changing it if you did.

    Definitely the one you have. Much more original and has more of a wow factor.
