OK, I Can't decide on a dress already!! How many of you had this problem. I've had no crying moments, but I've actually really liked all the dresses I've tried on. I'm not the kind of person who can make a decision right away, I've got to brood over it. Advice?
it might be easier if you set up a poll for the post.
the good news is most of your dresses are fairly similar (other than straight vs. sweetheard neckline) through the hip. it's just a matter of what the bottom looks like.
i think sweetheart generally looks better on everyone. i actually like the one with the bow best - it's dramatic and unusual.
@nybride: I like the one with the bow, but FMIL said "Oh, is the bow at your THIGH?..... that's VERY different" with a weird look on her face.....I could tell she didn't like it......I KNOW i shouldn't care, but now that's all I see in my mind now.
I had a really hard time picking as well (BIG DECISION) so don't feel bad. Which gown did you have the best feeling in?? I am usually an emotional person, but I didn't cry when I found my gown...I just had a really good/peaceful feeling about it :) So don't worry that you haven't had any of the crying moments.
I voted for the gown with the ruffles because it is really flattering on your shape!! I also like the last picture with the pick-ups. Good luck deciding!!!
I really like the swirly one. I think that 3 of the 4 dresses are similar fabric and they all have similar styles. If FMIL's comment about the bow is going make you go "egh" every time your near her in it, then as much as you should get what makes you happiest, don't give yourself a stomach ache on your wedding day.
PLUS- I really like the swirly pattern, it's super dynamic and awesome and different.
There is one gown that I don't have a pic of me in. (they wouldn't let me take one) It's similar to the one with the ruffles, but cheaper! the ruffles sort of peak out on the side and I was thinking about getting it changed to a sweetheart neck. I tried it on in ivory, but the only pic shows it in orange.
I actually like all of them except the one with the bow... and I like them all enough that it's really hard to choose a favorite. The one that I remember while I'm not looking at them is the swirl one... so I think it's my favorite. :)
They are all very similar but my favorite one is the 2nd one. The one that was originally posted sideways...think it look greats as do the others but I love the material of this one!
Just a suggestion but if you like the sweatheat neckline which I think would enhance this dress you may be able to add a dip to the neckline with alterations or if the designer allows any customization.
Either way great dress and good luck with your decision! (I am in the same situation, I have 2 dresses I can not choose between...)
Wow, I don't think you can go wrong! I personally love the 3rd one the best (the one with the sweetheart neck) because that is the dress I am looking for! If you don't mind, who is the designer? I also really like the 2nd & 4th ones on you-very flattering. I'd say my least favorite is the bow just because of where it's placed.
I'm going to go against the general opinion and vote for the one with the bow...I just like it a lot and it's the one I find most memorable. The one posted sideways comes to a close second.
I love the ruffles. Seemed most flattering on you. The black bow looks like it sort of cuts you off at the knees though it is gorgeous and unusual
I was really torn between the bow and the swirl, but in the end I voted for the swirl. It's so gorgeous and dramatic without being as obviously dramatic as the bow. I love both though.
I think the ruffle dress is really pretty and voted for that one.
I love the one with the bow!!! And this is coming from someone who doesn't like bows! lol . . it is so cool! If you are really hung up on what FIL said I still like that one minus the bow.
Here are all of the designers
Dress 1 (Bow): Mon Cheri-Karina
Dress 2 (Swirl): Allure Exclusive 2257
Dress 3 (Ruffles): WTOO Maria
Dress 4 (Pickups): Emerald 9160
I like the ruffled one the best. I'm drawn to your crotch line with both the bow and the swirl. It's like, i HAVE to zone in right next to your thigh. I didn't even see your neckline until i made myself look. So basically I think they're distracting...
I voted for the ruffles - for some reason it just seemed the most flattering but they're all really pretty!
You look great in all four but I'm going to have to go with the swirl.
They're all pretty similar but I like the ruffle one the best. the only one I DON'T like is the one with the bow (even though it is my wedding dress designer!)
I love the ruffle one.. the swirl one second, the pickup third... and I really don't like the bow one.
I'm torn between the swirl and the pickup. Not a fan of the bow dress, but just my opinion.
The emerald dress was one of my last two dresses as well! I didnt get the feeling either but I kept looking. I found it today with a different dress! Its funny we narrowed down to the same dress and we have the same date!
I like the ruffles!
The ruffle dress is so beautiful and flowy! I had narrowed my dress options to 3 and brought my mom and MOH. I ended up choosing the one they had the biggest reaction to. I was a little worried, until I had my first fitting. They were right! Sometimes "The One" feeling doesn't happen. Then you pick the "Super Gorgeous and Will Totally Do" one. Good luck.
Oooh, I love the one with pickups and I don't even like pickups!! The black bow and swirl are my least fav. But you really do look amazing in all of them, you've got a lot of great options!
still haven't decided. Oh well, I'll get there soon enough I guess. I found a whole bunch of others that I like now.
Ugh
NUMBER 3!!! Ruffles ruffles ruffles!
Damn...now I want some chips. lol.
I notice that the bodice on all of these is exactly the same so at least you have made a decision about that. Personally, I am not overly fond of the big black bow...but any of the rest would be gorgeous.
I like the one with the bow, it's really special (but I would have the bow done in white...not a fan of colors on wedding dresses). The swirl is number two for me.
