Okay, I've been putting off this dress business for way too long. I posted previously about trying to choose between a few dresses and my intent was to purchase last month...but I couldn't commit to a dress! So...I need your help again! I'm either going to buy one of these four OR have my aunt and her friends (they work for Catherine Regher a Canadian designer) make a dress in a similar style to one of these. Please help me pick! 

YAY! I'm so happy you found some dresses. I remembered what you were saying in that "petite" thread. But all these dresses look great on you. And I agree, the heart shape neckline is fab for those of us that are....ahem, well, can't quite fill the top out that well. I chose the THIRD pic. It makes you look like you've got some great curves plus it gives you alot more interest. Runner up would be the last dress. Not loving the second dress though.
Thanks Wendy! Yea now that I'm looking at the pics, I think the second dress makes me look short! And being 5'3"...I don't want to look any shorter. Esp when FI is 6'1"!
The Maggie Sottero Allison Marie looks stunning on you. Look at those curves! :)
I hear you about being petite and there being quite the height difference. I'm 5'1" on a good day and my FI is 5'11". I went with an empire waisted dress because it elongated me and it's loose fitting around my hips. Unfortunately, I'm short but I've got massive hips for my height. (39")
I think the third one looks great on you. I think it elongates your torso...and you definately dont look short in it!
@Lindsay: Thanks! I'm hoping my hips will distract people from noticing I don't fill out the tops of my dresses well. LOL
@Brianne: Hips are sexy! 
@Ms.Teddy: Thanks! I was nervous that a dress that elongates my torso would make me look short since I have a long torso and my legs are soooo short!
the 3rd one in is so gorgeous on you! It makes you look so thin and pretty. PERFECT!
I love the 3rd and 4th ones as well! If I had to choose I would have to pick the 4th one I think it looks the best on you! I love the fullness on the bottom and the way the sweethheart neckline falls on you is just plain beautiful! You do not look short at all in either of these dresses! t doesn't matter which one you choose you will look absoutly stunning on your wedding day for sure!! =)
Definitely the third one... Looks awesome on you! I don't care much for the second and the last, and the first would make a good backup plan,... but I like the third one... Oh, did I say, get the third one! :)
I definitely like the third one best - it's SO flattering on you!!
I like #1 or #4. #2 is pretty, but horizontal lines will make you look shorter. I like the lines on #1, but the detail on #4. You're so petite I think the extra fabric on the third one isn't as good as the others.
Thanks ladies! It's nice to get other opinions because my mom thinks I look amazing in every dress...but that's because she's my mom. And my 4 bridesmaids each picked a different favorite. I was like...SERIOUSLY? haha
I love both Maggie Sottero but Allison Marie the most!
I like the #3 and #4, you look great in all of them. But the last 2 really show off your figure!
Thanks everyone! This is very helpful :-)
i personally love the casablanca dress, but that's because it's my style. it was hard for me to vote, because they're all so different. you could wear any one of them and look gorgeous. i'm just wondering, what's the feel of your wedding? that could help you pick one over the others.
I like 1 and 4. The first one just gives you such a great figure. The fourth one is just beautiful! Good luck.
@JanieLeigh: I'm getting married in a garden on a farm with the reception in a barn. Not too formal, but definitely not casual :-)
I remember your previous post and you had a satin Casablanca (1941?) and that's still my favorite on you. Out of these, I'd pick the 4th one.
1 and 3 are my favorite, but you will look amazing in whatever you choose - make sure to update us on your choice!
I love #4...Sweetheart neckline, clean lines, shimmer and curves...it's absolutely beautiful on you.
You ladies are SO sweet and SO helpful! Thanks!! Weddingbee really is an ego booster. LOL :-)
I like the first and third, but think that the 3rd is winning overall :)
#4 - its simple enough for someone with short stature to pull off and excentuates all the right parts :) the neckline is killer!
