Regretting Dress Color :(

I remember gasping when I tried my dress on the first time! It was beautiful! Of course I went to 4 other shops and tried on other dresses, but none of them made me gasp so I knew that was the one! The dress I tried on had ivory lace on top and underneath the lace is a blush/champagne color. Before I decided to buy it, I went through the pictures we took and it started to look too pink in some angles, so I decided I wanted to be more classical than trendy so I ordered it in all ivory. That was about 3 weeks ago, but I've been looking at it more and more and I'm starting to like the blush/champagne option again! I don't know what to do and from anyone's experience do you think it's too late to change the color IF I should? The store said it won't arrive until May, if that helps?

Here's where it's too pink to me.

    You can call to ask if you can change it. I wouldn't pay to chage it though. The dress is beautiful either way. I wanted blush at first but it didn't go with my skin tone.

    I think the dress is absolutely gorgeous! I think everything about it is amazing and doesn't look very pink to me.

    The color looks great and it's a beautiful dress. I'm sure it will be beautiful no matter which color you decide to go with Smiley smile.

    Also, I'm not sure how blush is a passing trend? Champagne or blush dresses look beautiful on fair skin. Barely anyone can pull of a bright white dress. Just my opinion.

    I agree with you, but without knowing her personality, I have given the advice that I think works, generally speaking.

    In general, if someone was asking me for advice on a wedding gown, one trendy and one not, I'd say to opt for the less trendy one.

    If it was my very best friend who was obsessed with the color purple, I'd say to get a purple dress (if that's what she wanted).

    I don't really see the pink. I think that dress is stunning just as it is!

    To me that still seems like a neutral dress. And I agree, you should wear whatever makes you feel best. However, if internally you are saying that you would prefer to look timeless/classic, then perhaps steer towards the ivory you have ordered. I don't think you can make a wrong choice because both are beautiful in my opinion.

    It doesn't look too pink to me in the first picture. More like a dark ivory. It's gorgeous.

    Definitely call them - because it might be too late to change the order.

    I think your dress is gorgeous though, and I definitely don't think that the bottom layer looks too pink! I had a lot of friends who always thought they'd wear a more ivory or white dress end up picked lace dresses that had a darker color underneath (pink or tans). The contrasting color underneath really makes the lace detailing pop!

    I think that it is up to you, both look plenty bridal to me. I prefer the off whites, blushes and champagnes because I think they are often more flattering. I would call and see if it is even an option.

    I love the color. I think the chamgane/blush underneath allows the ivory lace to really show. My dress is similar in the fact that its champagne underneath and ivory lace on top. Sometimes I think eh its not white/ivory and that's not "traditional" BUT it's so romantic and looks so great on my skin color that I'm sticking with it!
