3 Perfect Dresses

Well the subject says it all, I found 3 completely different wedding dresses that I love and I have no clue how I am going to decide. They all come with the corset back i want, as well as the style train I want. I don't feel better in one over another. I have to order my dress at the beginning of the year. How do I decide?? I've tried pro/con lists, as well as listening to the opinion of my mother and bridesmaids. I'm desperate for help!

    If they're truly equal, go by price. If the prices are pretty much the same, roll a dice. And if you are dissapointed by the one that gives you, then you've probably figured out which one you prefer.

    That's exactly what I was going to suggest.

    Sometimes I feel like people think that brides are delicate little flower princesses who get all dressed up and pretty for one special moment of their dreams, when really they're just normal people who just happen to be getting married. Things shouldn't have to be sugar-coated for grown-ass women. -mstar284

    But lets be honest, the three dresses could never by <em>TRULY</em> equal.  There is always maybe even the smallest edge to one over the others.  Go with that one.  If they are, then go by price. 

    Or keep looking, because you didn't find the dress that spoke to you the most.

    Yeah, but making it random usually helps you realize which one you truly prefer.  Ever flipped a coin to decide something, and then realized that you actually wanted it to go the opposite way, when you hadn't really had any strong feelings before?  No one says she actually has to go with the one the dice tell her to, but it will help clear things up.

    Good point.

  • Have you tried them all on? If not, you need to do so before ordering. Though I agree with PPs that doing some sort of random choice will show you whether there's one you really want more.
