i so hate myself, i just bought my dress from Forherandforhim.com around two weeks ago, It is being made now and i loved it,  i think i still love it now. It's just when i checked their site today, i found a really lovely and special dress that takes my breath right away!  I think i love the new dress more now... I talked with their customer service just now and they said if i canceled my order now, i have to pay 25% of the dress cost (around 100 bucks) as the tailoring fee since the dress is already being made. It's understandable but i am just afraid i might have similar regrets when there's an even more beautiful dress... So what do you girls think, which dress do you prefer? Should i give the first one a real chance or just go for the new dress?? Please help me out!!!! Thanks a million!

Here's the dress i already bought:


Here's my new love;

First dress, hands down!  I don't think the 2nd one looks very "wedding".  Love the 1st one!

I like the first one.  But the real issue here is, you haven't even tried the second one on right?  So you have no idea whether you love it or not. 

Keep the first one.

The first.

The spot where the second poufs out will look awkward on most people.  So unless you're at least 5'10" and 110 pounds it won't be too flattering.

The white one for sure. The other looks more like a prom dress

Honestly and I'm not just saying this but the first one is far superior to the second one. Stick with your first choice....and stop looking!!!!

Thanks girls for your honest opinion, seems everyone likes the first dress. I seriously doubt my taste now..

The first dress is gorgeous.   The second one looks way too feathery IMO, and it makes the model look like a bird.  Keep the first one, and when it comes in you can try it on again to remind yourself why you liked it.

Stop looking, and definitely don't try on any other dresses!

My suggestion:
A) Stick with dress #1. It's beautiful!
B) Once you've found a dress you love STOP LOOKING! There will ALWAYS be a dress you think you may love more.

This happened to me, and as soon as my dress came in and I got to try it on, I knew I made the right choice.Stop second guessing yourself!!!! The first one is nicer!!

the first one is breathtaking and since it is not stark white you will make one hell of a statement. trust your first instinct, i agree with all the other posters, once you find a dress you love, you cant look anymore because new styles come out all the time. you dont wanna be stuck worrying about your dress. just remember why you fell in love with it and you will love it again on the day you marry your love.
