I bought my dress last November and I really like it. I bought it online and I didn't end up trying on any other dresses, but it had everything I thought I was looking for, and I got a really good deal on it, so I was happy.
But...now, seven weeks before my wedding. I've fallen in love with another dress. I walk past this bridal store frequently, and every time I do I stop and admire this one dress in the window. Finally, against my better judgment, I went and tried it on today. It's totally different than the one I bought but reallly really beautiful. I went home and called FI and he said that even though it's not in our wedding budget, if I love it that much it's okay with him if I take money out of savings to buy it (on the condition that I let him buy an expensive roof rack after we get married, lol). They offered me a nice discount to buy the sample dress, which would need only minor alterations, so getting the dress in time wouldn't be an issue.
This dress has also made me second-guess my original choice--I feel like I let my mom influence my decision too much. I had originally wanted a lace dress (which the new one is), but she convinced me that I wanted a ball gown (which I bought).
Sooo, now I'm torn. Has anyone else fallen in love with another dress after buying one they were happy with? Did you buy the new dress? Did you not buy it, and wish you had?
Please help me decide what to do!
