    The second one.  I would make some slight modifications to the front so the neckline is made a little more softer.

    You look great in both, so I'd go for comfort. I personally wouldn't be comfortable in the second one because of the plunging neckline.

    You look amazing in both dress. But I prefer the first one. It's a bit more traditional and i think it fits you better! Good luck!

    I might be somewhat biased cause I'm a "custom gown" lady.  But, you look great in the 2nd gown, the custom one.  The first looks beautiful as well; but another bride is likely wearing the same gown.  Be unique and go the custom route.

    I actually love them both equally and can see why you have the conflict!  When making a decision like this I always think about which is the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity?  With my own dress, I have a longer train than I ever thought I would, but I asked myself, when else in my life will I wear a dress with a train?

    And I just wanted to just say they are both stunning on you and you can't make a wrong decision here :-)

    i like both but voted for the second.  I agree - you look super happy in the first.  But you look unique and stunning in the 2nd - more elegant, perhaps.  Also, the first one's ruching seems a little long on your body.  If you were 5'7" i think it'd look different. You could wear your down in cool waves for the second dress, totally.

    They are both really great, but I like the second one (custom) more.

    Yay, you picked the right dress! ;)

    Definately the second, without even seeing the 2nd I thought the 1st one was boring (sorry to be blunt).  I love the detail on the 2nd and it's very original!!  but at the end of the day if you feel comfortable and happy with want you are wearing you can make anything look good.  Go with what you love. I also agree that the V in the 2nd may be a little low but other than that it's stunning!
