    The first pic, sottero and migdley valentina, looks very sweet and subtle wow. The second dress is the maggie sottero jenna. It looks stunning on me and has loud wow factor. But I am getting married in a country garden setting and I am not sure it suits the atmosphere. I have included a picture of the site.  Keep in mind these are sample sizes and do not fit. The jenna is not that big in the breasts- the fabric is not against my skin. I am thinking if I go with the jenna, to soften it up I would add a dimond bow brotch to my hair and ballet flats. I like the bow brotch for my hair on the second dress as well.

    I personally like the first one better. You look lovely in both though. Add a poll to get more opinions!

    It depends on if you want to look sweet or glamorous. The first dress is pretty on you in a very sweet way, the secong one has major wow factor and you look stunning. I say go with the one that makes you feel the most beautiful.

    Tough question. Personally I like dress number 2. I think it shows off ur curves. And I think that it will look amazing in the setting for your ceremony.

    The first one does NOT flatter your shape at all. I think #2 is better for the 'wow' factor, though I'm not a fan of either and think you could find a better dress all around.

    swarsj....even though someone else might not be a fan of a specific style DOES NOT mean YOU shouldn't wear it!! #2 look sbeautiful on you and it's like it was made for you body. I hate when people come on here and judge other's dresses based on their own taste and not what others love. Anyway, DON'T LISTEN TO THE NAY SAYERS! Both look beautiful on you!!

    I like the second one on you, it looks like it was made for your body and hugs you through the hips very nicey!  I wouldn't worry about it being "over the top" for any setting, you're getting married, you should wear your WOW dress!

    i think the 1st dress fits your ceremony spot better, but the 2nd dress looks better on you and i personally love the wow factor...go with whichever one makes you feel better about wearing it and don't base your dress on venue IMO....

    @swarsj: I definitely like the ruching on you in #2... I just don't think the bottom does anything. Too much going on, you know. I had tried on the #1 as well - it's a gorgeous, flirty, girly dress (love love love it) but it doesn't flatter many people especially if you have any hips at all... which you do and it pokes out in the photo. You can find a lot of similar styles to #2 without the bottom being overwhelming like that.

    Goodluck

    And @ Pilotsgirl09 who always has something negative to say about my posts and opinions:

    It's not that I'm not a fan of style #2 at all. I'm not a fan of it on her. Because of the bottom frump, as stated above. KTHX

    I definately voted for the Jenna not b/c thats my dress too...but b/c it looks absolutely stunning on you.

    I think the first one is pretty on you but it just doesn't have that WOW factor, unless you like it to be simple...which I gather you are not since you did try on the JENNA....

    The backdrop to your ceremony venue is gorgeous and I wouldn't want your dress to sort of blend in.....YOU are the bride you and your dress should work the venue!
