    Hello!! So.. I'm having a really hard time deciding between these dresses. I don't have pics of me in these since the places I've gone haven't allowed photos...but I'm going somewhere tomorrow that does so maybe I'll update later! We're having our wedding outdoors at a Farm in the Columbia River Gorge in Oregon and the reception will also be there inside the barn. Also, I'm about 5'3" and 105lbs if that is helpful! Thanks!

    My top two dresses as of right now:

    1. Maggie Sottero Irina

    Honestly they look almost identical to me. I probably like the bottom one more because of the lace detail on the train.

    Ooo I really like the detailing on the bottom edging of the 2nd dress. But I do think seeing pictures of you in both of these dresses would make the decision easier. They're both really pretty.

    @Bean: haha yea that's partly why it's hard for me to pick...they are definitely my style but there are subtle differences

    I voted for #2 because I like the lacy train and I love the sweet bow on the back at the bottom of the corset.

    Oh I take my vote back and choose #2- I didn't notice the awesome lace detail on the train!! :o) Do you have pics of yourself in either dress?

    @AzinAugust: No pictures yet! The stores are kind of annoying with the no photo policy...I can't even sneak a pic because the salesperson is practically in my face. But I'm going to a store tomorrow that said they're more than happy to let me take pics! I know they have the Maggie one, but I don't know about the Mori one. I'll try to put up the pic of me in the Maggie tomorrow!

    I like the Maggie - and my FI threw in a vote for it as well (he likes to play "which dress is better" with me, lol)

    Irina was my second choice! I love the dress and love the price!!  It's a little more modern than the Mori Lee if that's what you're going for.

    I say the Mori Lee because it has more detail on the bottom...and I really like the scalloped look as well! Both are beautiful though!! :)

    I wish we could see a picture!  It's so much easier to decide when you can see it on the person!  However, I vote for Maggie.  I favor Maggie dresses . . . my BM's dress and my dress is a Maggie!

    I voted for the Maggie because from the pics it looks like a heavier material, which I usually prefer; but you cannot go wrong either way =)

    they both are the same. but the small difference is that there is a lace detail on the hem and train..i like that one better. but if you want a plain dress i would go for the maggie.

    I like the scalloped detail on the Mori Lee, and I think it would look much nicer outdoors against the grass for pictures.  they are both nice, but this one has that over the other one for me.

    hard to tell without seeing them on you--love the neckline on the first, but the material and bottom on the second.  couldn't go wrong with either though.
