Is it common to second guess your dress decision?

Finally found a dress and now I cannot help wondering if I made the right decision. 9 days and 9 bridal stores later. There is no going back, but I cannot calm my fear that I made the wrong decision.

    I second guessed my dress a little but until the day MY dress came in and I tried it on again. I haven't second guessed it since then. I fell in love all over again.

    I'm also having this problem. The first dress I bought is nonreturnable, but then I saw another one weeks later that I also really liked. I was thinking of keeping the first one (the pink one) for the reception and the other one I liked for the courthouse wedding. What do you think? I'd appreciate your help Smiley smile

    I just bought my dress today and basically a few hours later after being away from my family and friends, I started to 2nd guess the dress when I saw the photos. I remember how I felt in the dress at the store and how it looked in the mirror. But after looking at the photos, I'm starting to see it as not very flattering and making me look really wide. Then I also saw there were different options for the top but I only saw the one which was skin colour, so now I'm questioning if the have it in stock of the white would look better. I also just shopped at 1 store because of covid and all the restrictions and my schedule conflicting with my friends and family. I never got the 'thats the one!' feeling. I did get that on one of my inspo pictures I had but no where carries it (old stock). The entire experience was fun being with family, but when it came to the dresses, I had no idea what to feel. Now I'm wondering if I made a mistake that's obviously too late with the downpayment.
