Deciding Between Offers - Regarding prestige

I was given two offers. I was hoping everyone could weigh in regarding prestige. One was extended to me by a top, rapidly growing wealth management company (think Sageview Advisroy, Hightower Advisors, Oxford Financial Group, etc.) On the flipside, I was offered an internship at a well-known international hedgefund.

Thoughts?
