    I have looked at tons of dresses, and i have managed to narrow it down to just 2. I need y'all help as to which one i should get. I just need some opinions.

     Dress #1: Something a little bolder, but it goes well with my ring.

    Dress #2: Simpler but still a little something.

    Thanks!!

    I love the first dress!  Imo, it's way more interesting and unique than the second one (though that's a nice dress too).

    I would say the first dress too!  It's beautiful!  And definitely more unique than the second one.  I know Allure is a popular brand, but their dresses just don't do it for me.  Go for the Casablanca - that dress will make for GORGEOUS pictures!

    I'm also sond on the Casablanca dress despite my aversion to lace! Definitly has more personality without being overwhelming.

    Dress #1 is lovely but it seems to have the effect of making the model appear broad at the shoulders. If you have a pear-shaped figure (bigger on the bottom) this would be perfect to balance your figure. But if you are wider at the shoulders, this might make you look disproportionate.

    Maybe you've already decided but here are my 2 cents :-)  The casablanca one is gorgeous and I actually tried it on myself.  My concern with the dress (and several other gorgeous lacey ones I tried) is that all anyone would really see is the dress and not me.  Granted, I'm only 5'1" so busy designs tend to be overwhelming on me, but with a simpler dress people will tend to look at your face more.  Casablanca does have beautiful dresses though (and I'm sure either way you'll look gorgeous!)

    #1. The dropped waste is sooooo flattering! When I tried on dresses, I found that the lacey ones with details were the ones that flattered me best. Probably because I'm very shy and quiet. I think more bold-looking women (women who have very strong presence) look best with simpler designs, because their strong presence easily carries through the dress.
