Love/Hate Affair with My Dress

I purchased dress A and at the time loved it.  Then I bought it home and thought it was too plain.  It doesn't have any sparkle or lace, and the last words I heard from my FI was that he's not a fan of plain material.  So I find Dress B, a  Maggie Sottero on sale at ebay and snatch that one up, thinking its everything that I wanted...

Now we are at two dresses....

This evening I tried both on, and guess what.  My DRESS is dress A.  It was always A and I don't know why I have become such a crazed lunatic over making this decision...  I have never labored over each an every detail to such an extent! 

Anyone else out there suffering from briditis?

    No dress to love or hate just yet...

    But am definitely having a real issue trusting MCB the company behind the contest...  See post under Update: Lost Dress Mojo...  I'm beginning to like Nordstorms more and more... don't mean to post jack.

    I'm glad you settled on YOUR dress again!

    MikesAngie:  I was on David's Bridal website - they are having a $99 Bridal Sale Sept. 10 - Sept. 27 - it is worth a shot!  They also have an "as-is" rack that has gowns that are marked WAY down because of a couple loose beads or whatever - if there is one near you, check it out.  You might find something!

    arv - Glad you settled on your dress finally!  Your FI will love how you look, no matter what!

    Britt - I thought the same thing this morning!  The dress is officially on sale!  I've been cynical of the "oh I found my dress" expereince, but I have got to say, it finally hit me last night.  I felt pretty.  :)  And young.  :)

    Second Weddings once had a 4 dress bride...so you are in good company.   (She also ended up wearing 3 strapless bras under that dress.  So let's just leave it at she's a gal who likes multiples.)  ~Donna
