Wedding dress, non-traditional HELP?!

So since it's my second wedding, I decided I didn't want to do white. Call me old fashioned, just my opinion. We're doing a really casual, laid-back day in June. The color theme is yellow and green. What do you think I should wear? 

Thanks for your help!

    I like the pale pink posies and strawberry iced tea dresses. You have a ton of choices maybe narrow it down to one. Color or 3 dresses so it will be easier to decide. They are all very pretty!! :

    I also like the walk with me dress. Have you looked in Ruche's wedding section? There are some cute things that are definitely not traditional.

    How fancy of an affair will it be?

    Even though you are having a "laid back" day, this is FI only chance to see you in a wedding gown.  I feel that you could wear all of those dresses on a sweet date. Doesn't matter if it's 2nd wedding or not, it's still a very special day <3

    My suggestion would be to go all out on a bridal gown (of any color) and maybe buy one of those dresses for your anniversary. For that I like the pale pink or walk with me.

    Many gowns come in ivory rather than white if that is a concern for you. Try jcrew or kate spade maybe?? Also, blush pink is popular now and I've seen green hues too.
    Good luck! See you on the June 2013 board :)

    <div>Thanks, you've got a point. But my fiance is a VERY laid back person, it's all I can do to get him to wear nice khakis and a button down short sleeve and loafers. He's most comfortable in jeans and sneakers. A suit is way out of the question. So I think it'd be way overshadowing him to wear something that fancy. I'm really enjoying all of the beach wedding themes, I just think those can be just as romantic. Plus my baby will be born by then and 4months old, I figure these dresses are a bit more appropriate for that. But thank you for the thought!</div>

    I also voted for the pale pink posies dress!  I liked the strawberry and walk with me dresses too.

    I think the sweet honey looked a little young to me, KWIM? 

    I also think it really depends on what style you'll be most comfortable in and will be most appropriate for your body.  They're all lovely and very much in the same vein.

    Good luck!

    That makes more sense :) I was hoping that you weren't just playing things down bc of having a child and the second wedding thing. Do what makes you two the most comfortable. You're definitely not alone w wanting a laid back wedding. Here's a vid I came across while looking for a videographer and it reminded me of your post:

    Have you narrowed down your dress choices at all?

    Out of your picks I like the Pale Pink Posies Dress the best.

    As another suggestion, how about something 'blue'....
