U/D : Dress Shopping - Can I have 3 Gooses?!

fishinflagrl

Sooo...I ended up not caring for the dress I liked so much online. I liked it, but not the long train. I did find 3 I like, but need some more opinions. Help!!

 Dress 1:  I LOVE the front, it is just stunning I feel so small in it! Except when I turn to the side I look a little "big". The back is pretty too. I think this will be gorgeous for the boat. It is a little simple though from the side and back. This is also in my price range.


 Dress 2: I LOVE the bling, I love lace, and I love that is "WOW" every where, front, back, and side. This is a champagne dress, I held up an ivory color (too small to try on) and I loved it more. This is a little over my price range but FI said it will be okay (if my mom doesnt want to pay). The pics dont do it justice, which im worried about b/c I dont want it to fade out in my wedding pics they are my forever memories. I did feel like a princess.


 Dress 3: I never thought I would like something like this, but I loved it. I think it is very pretty and makes me look thin. It has some bling. I will be adding straps though, security blanket thing. I believe this was a little out of my price range. This is champagne but would buy in ivory.

Let me know your thoughts or your can just vote... We might be trying another place..maybe. Im already in love with 3!!

You look gorgeous in them all!! I think 1 would be the prettiest on the boat....it's very flowy. You also look very comfortable in 1.

Ultimately, pick the one that you picture spending a whole day in. I loved a couple that were so heavy I'd be weighed down all day.

I absolutely LOVE the second one! Its gorgeous and I think it's the most flattering of the 3.

You look great in all of them but I love dress #1 on you!

Personally I love dress number three on you. I think you look beautiful.

My rankings

1st - # 3
2nd - # 1

But they all do look very nice on you. Pick which one makes you happy.

I Love 2... but I may be bias because it looks SO MUCH like my dress!!!

I think you look AMAZING in all of them, pick the one you can't take off.

I vote 3

I'm partial to the first one (probably because it reminds me of mine ). I know you said you will be getting off a boat so will everything be outside? I think #1 would look lovely for an outdoor wedding with the flowy layers. #2 is also very nice and I think in natural light your sparkle will show up so I wouldn't worry about that too much.

I LOVE the first dress, then the third, then the second. They're all very nice.

Thank you ladies...this is helping!!

I really like the way you look in dress 1 plus the skirt kind of looks like waves so it fits with the boat theme. I just read your comments over again and really, it's about how you feel in them. You're right that dress #2 picture doesn't do it justice. I think the brighter ivory would look fantastic on you. Sleep on it and pick the dress that you think of the first moment you wake up.

I love #1 the best, are you at davids?

I think #2 is gorgeous and extremely flattering on you. Switching it to the ivory color would brighten it and help it pop in photos.

I really like the first dress, I think it's definitely the most flattering :)

I like dress number 3 the best. I think it is beautiful and the most flattering. My second choice would be dress #2,

jnpfautz

I love dress #2 the best - it is gorgeous on you!!

BMBrinson

I like 2! and remember you'll have a professional taking the pics so they should be able to capture the beauty of you and the dress! Go with your heart! you'll look great in any of them!

IMO, Dress 3 flatters your body the most. But, I also really like Dress 2 on you. That would be a tough choice! Good luck!

lenergyrlah

I think dress #3 is the most flattering on you, then #1, and dress #2 is the least flattering but you seem to like it the most.  If Dress #2 could be altered to be tigher around the waist to define your figure better I think it would be my favorite.

Thanks girls.

Lenergylah - yea it did not fit me completely, it was too big. I would have to get it fitted. I dont know if it would give me the shape like the other dress though.
