Please help me pick a dress!

Hi all, I have narrowed it down to 3 dresses and am super torn about which to pick! I have asked a lot of friends and family, but opinions differ a lot between them too. I decided it might be best to get some unbiased opinions here, thanks for your help!

Re: Please help me pick a dress!

  • These are all so beautiful, I can see why you would have a hard time deciding!

    Are any one of these specifically something that you imagined yourself walking down the isle in?

    I'm favoring the first one, but you could pick any of them and look lovely :)

  • They all look great on you!  Was any one of them more comfortable?  If so, I'd go for that one.  Otherwise, my preference is the second one, but I'm a lacy wedding dress girl.  But the first one was a very close second.

  • What's the overall feel you're looking for? They're all very different. I like the first for a more modern/formal wedding, second for more romantic/classic look, third for a beach wedding.

  • I don't care for how the first one gathers at the front. I think the second one would photograph most elegantly and look plenty "bridal." The third isn't particularly bridal. Ultimately though, go with what makes you happy. Sometimes, the more opinions you get, the more confused you get. This isn't something somewhat objective, like number of chairs, canapes, or when to send invitations. This is something that you need to feel good about. Not strangers, not your mom, etc. You.
  • The first one is extremely flattering on you. Shows off your curves perfectly! The details on the second one are absolutely beautiful and that one also looks good on you. I am not a fan of the third one at all. It does nothing for you, and based on your body language you don't seem as happy with it.

  • Yeah, these are very different dresses. The only one I don't love is the first, just because that gather and drape is distracting. The second is very classic and romantic bridal. The third looks perfect for a beachy destination wedding.

  • I like the first one best.  You look stunning in it.  The criss-cross rouching is very flattering and interesting to the eye, and I love the bit of bling with the belt.

    I really like the look of the soft, fluttery overlay on #1.  The lace dress looks stiff and has no movement.  Even the edges of the lace at the bottom look really stiff.

    I also don't care for the overly done straps on #3.  The front is really pretty though.  That dress is second for me.

    Bottom line though... You look amazing in all of them.  None of them would be a bad choice.  The dress is one thing you should get what you really want, and ignore anyone who doesn't agree with you.  The most important thing is that you feel amazing in the dress.  People's opinions all come down to their individual tastes anyway.
  • Choosing a dress is so difficult! I love the first one. It think it's very flattering and elegant, and it will take everyone's breath away when they see it! The second one is also very beautiful and elegant, but I feel like it's pretty common. Lots of people have dresses like that. The third is less wedding-y if that makes sense. It would definitely be a non-traditional dress.

  • The middle dress.

  • I like the middle the best.

    I don't like the back on the 3rd.

    The first is ok, I'm not sure I like how it gathers in the front though.

  • The second dress!
  • All three are lovely, but the second one compliments your body best. Good luck!

  • I like the 3rd, but I'm a sucker for dramatic backs. You can't go wrong with any of them, though!
  • I actually think that this is a really good of choosing a dress. I did the same with mine. In the end, it's easy to ignore advice, but you'll know by whether you feel excited or disappointed by other people's choices which dress is right for you.

  • I like the second one best.  It's beautiful.  Saying that, I don't think you can go wrong with any of them.  They all look nice.  
  • #2 (lace with belt) you look amazing in it and the sweetheart neckline is perfect on you. I don't know your personality but this one looks phenomenal on you!!

    If you really want to know why I didn't choose the others... #1 reminds me of a toga and #3 looks prom-ish IMVHO

  • #2 or #3. The second is elegant while the third one is playful, festive. The first does nothing for your waist. Tough decision when you look so great!
  • In order of favorite to least (although all are nice) 3,2,1
  • Lace!  #2.

  • I like the fit of #2, but I like that #1 and #3 are both a little different. I think #2 is very popular right now, so I feel like I see it a lot.
  • first one not a fan second one i love it says bridal its different thrid one no way does nothing for you and looks more like a pagent or prom dress
  • I really love that second dress on you!

  • #2 is my fav, then the first.  I don't really like the third, reminds me of a pageant looking dress.   
  • I like the first one, it is the most flattering and the colour looks great with your skin tone. The second one is nice but the pattern of the lace makes it look like you can see the seems. The third one is a little plain for my taste.
  • I'm probably not much help - I love all three and I think you look amazing in all three. :) That being said, I love the second one a little bit more. :)

    As others said, maybe consider the overall look you want or what is more "you". I think the first one is more unique and modern, the second is very classic and romantic, and the third is a bit more glamorous. 

    Let us know what you choose!!!
