This is just my personal opinion of course, but I absolutely LOVE your original dress!!! I would wear that one, although the other dress is also beautiful.
ETA: I say this under the presumption that your original dress is the second one you posted.
both are beautiful but I voted for the ivory. To me, it seems more luxe and elegant and I love that it has pockets and the button detailing on the back is gorgeous!
lvoe them both. Here is what i suggest:
wear the ivory one for your ceremony
switch to the pink dress with long skirt for reception
wear the short pink dress as your get a way dress!
If you dont need/want a get a way dress than use it for your rehearsal dress :D
Thanks guys, yes the ivory is the first dress. I like the idea of switching it up too. That could be fun! The pink is also currently 2 sizes bigger rather than 1 so depending on how it gets taken in, i think it will matter how it ends up falling on me. I will be getting it on Wed so I will have a better idea on what it looks like on. I could hate it but it was such a steal I couldn't say no.
I'm sorry, I absolutely LOVE the pink one. It's stunning! Not a huge fan of the other one, although you do wear it very well.
Love them both! The pink one is my favorite, though! Just gorgeous. I'm sure you'll look amazing in whichever dress you pick
I really like both dresses A LOT, but I voted for the blush because it's so unique.
The idea of incorporating all three looks is genius, though

I think it really just depends on which "look" you want the first one seems more romantic and the second one seems more classic.
Does wearing the three looks seem like an extravagance? Does it seem over the top? I am starting to like that idea but don't want to come off like Kim Kardashian.
uh... I made a noise... out loud, when I saw that pink dress. It is SO beautiful, SO original! I scrolled down to the second one and it's a real snooze-fest in comparison.
@bestbuddies: I was totally thinking the same thing or you could use the short one once dancing begins---> so married in the original... enter reception in the pink... and then after dinner right before dancing transition to the short one! That would totally maie a splash!
MissNoodles: I agree. I sort of feel like the white one is a bit of a bore, although I plan to spruce it up with accessories and I also think it says more than the pics show in person. But that pink, and it is SOOOO original and I think it will photograph beautifully, especially as the sun is setting. I can't get my mind off that dress, I'm seriously mezmerized.
I am though worried about how it will look though once it is taken in. It is a 10 and the other one was ordered is a 6. I'm going to have to take in quite a bit of fabric and I worry it wont lay right...but I am going to find the best seamstress around and try and make sure the layers don't get screwed up. I'm nervous about that. I guess I shouldn't be if I take it to an excellent seamstress. Uff tough decision.
They are very different looks! I like the pinky fluffy one... Way more fun if that is what you are going for. The ivory one is beautiful too of you are going for a more elegant look!

Hi all: So I did something a little crazy. I purchased a Martina Liana dress in Dec with my family which I love. Its clean, simple, looks great, has stunning Swarovski/diamante/pearl embelishment and HAS POCKETS! I ordered it in Duchesse silk. I love it. So elegant.
But I was perusing other wedding dresses and found on sale another special dress. It was such a steal I bought it. It is also another Martina Liana, but this time one that has been discontinued, pink and what I feel is another fun stunner. It essentially is two dresses in one. This one is silk and silk taffeta. It has never been used and is really fabulous.
Now I need some help figuring out which is going to make more of a splash. We're getting married in Ojai, California in late June so it will be hot but our ceremony starts at 6pm so the entire wedding will be in the evening/night and outdoors (it cools off big time at night).
Anyway, I was hoping I could get some help picking the dress. Please help!
