I did it to myself

I went shopping for dresses this weekend and as if I had not enough difficulty to make up my mind, I had to complicate the whole thing:
Ann, Erin and Sarah came with me to the shop in Smiths Falls to look at the dress I saw in Montreal(Sincerity bridal #3022) and others. Results:They really like this one and the store will try to order another one (#3068) that I wanted to try in a size that would fit a little better than half my size... The store is giving a good deal on the dress(3022) a lot better than Montreal so I was pretty happy
So here the mistake, it was still early so I propose to go to another store to see if they would have a similar model to the 3068 so they can give me their opinion... So we went and I found another one that I like to complicate the story. It is in raw silk, just lovely, the color is gold, it looks great and fell great... My mind was pretty much set on the other one... why did I do that!?
The 3022 has so many good features: The detachable train, the boned corset means that I won't need to buy one to go under, in the corset there is a tread that is making flowers that I could use to make a shawl or a shrug and it is cheaper, the store made me a deal with no taxes and inexpensive altérations.
The other one(raw silk) would request a corset ($60-$80), it is more expensive... I did not ask too much though, I was there late.
I need to think about it. I am still thinking that I should have straps for comfort... I would just hate to have to pull on my dress all through the night. Especially that Mike wants to boogie for our first song, It would not look great to have a wardrobe malfunction, that would be my most embarrassing day of my life... and I am sure I don't want it to be on my wedding day.
Anyway, we went for a great dinner the 4 girls together, I had a good time and I think they did too.
