I knew I would have this struggle. I wanted to pay 500$ for a dress. I fell in love with a 950 dress. I bought the one I could afford which is by the same desginer and is nice but now that I think back about it I am still thinking about the other dress.
I am having our ceremony in the church and the one I have is modest and needs very little alterations. It is ivory which is easy to match. I paid most of it off and feel I should move on to other aspects of the wedding.
But then, I keep thinking of other things I could try to afford the more expensive champagne colored dress and how I could possible resell it or something. I really need to learn to be content within my budget but now I feel that I am not happy with the dress I chose.
Anyoneencounter this?

For most brides, the wedding gown is one of the most costly aspects of the wedding day. This being said, I know that you are constantly cutting costs so that you can have the wedding you envisioned. Is there are sample version of your dream dress that you could perchase at a discount? Ask your bridal salon. usually they will go the extra mile too make the sale as well as make you happy.
If this affordable dress isn't what you want, you will miss out on one of the most fun aspects of your wedding day. Feeling the most beautiful you can be.
Another option is to ask a seamstress to reproduce the dress you want. It will only be a fraction of the cost and it will be near identical. Seach in your local yellow pages for a formal gown seamstress. Consider http://thedressmaker.org/ they have a high standard and the work appears flawless.

Ive decided to accept the one I have. It is very pretty in fact beautiful and will require very little alterations. Our ceremony is in a church and it is appropriate. I have started buy accesories.

I am a big fan of feather hair accessories. These retail for over $100 usually and we have them for $59 almost 50% savings. Add it to a veil and create a couture looking headpiece or wear it alone.

At $29 these crystal dangle earrings are good for you and affordable for your bridesmaids.
