Help me pick between two!

So, I actually work at a bridal store. And months and months ago, a dress that had been at the store as long as I had (a year and a half) went on clearance - it was literally the last one in the chain. I bought it. For $75. However, just to look, because my gut told me I should keep looking, I...

However, just to look, because my gut told me I should keep looking, I recently went shopping at other boutiques, and fell in love with a new dress.

(Not the best pics, my mom took them.) the new one has crystals one the belt, straps, and crystal buttons all the way down the train.
And now I’m so confused!! I’m trying them both on again soon, and am at such a loss. I love both for so many different reasons.
What are your thoughts ladies?

    The second one, 100 %.
    I also work in bridal and feel as if I should shop at other salons. I've seen our dresses all the time. I understand where you're coming from. 🖤

    I’m leaning toward the second one but they both look really great on you! You could always do one for the ceremony and one for the reception

    They're both beautiful! But look at the way you're looking at yourself in the mirror in dress #2... I think that says everything.

    Provided the second dress is in your price range, just get both. Wear one for the wedding and one for the reception.

    By looking at these photos I actually feel just as confused and lost as you LOL.

    You look incredible in both. The first one is very flattering and shows off your figure, but the second one has a bit more of a bride vibe to me.

    As corny as this sounds, try to envision yourself walking down the aisle in both dresses- is there one that gives you a *magical* feeling? Did you feel something in your gut when you tried on the poofy dress? You did say you felt like you should keep looking even after you bought the first dress. Maybe that answers your question.

    I understand completely! Buying a wedding dress is kind of a big deal! I hesitated for the longest before making a decision on my dress, because it's like hey, this is the only wedding dress I'm ever going to wear! It needs to be THE ONE!! Best of luck in finding something you really love.

    The second one looks amazing on you! But it’s whatever you feel beautiful in that matters.

    I’m a sucker for deals so if you have the funds get both or sell the first one for a profit for the 2nd.

    I love the second one! But the first one just needs some accessories maybe a belt to help spice it up some?
