    Hi bees - I am admittedly a very indecisive person, so I turn it over to the hive!  Which do you prefer?

    Dress #1:  Pronovias - Hamlet

    Dress #2: Maggie Sottero - Paigely

    My vote is for Hamlet (minus the peaking bra Wink)!  I think you wear it very well and the neckline is super flattering on you.

    I think they are both gorgeous, but on the first one, with that neck line and straps, I think honestly it makes you look a lot broader on top.

     

    the second one just fits you so well and that sweet heart neckline is so flattering on you.

    Thanks everyone!

    I love the Hamlet because it seems so different (to me at least) than a traditional wedding dress.  But I love the Paigely cause I look really skinny in it!  haha

    I like the bottom one but only because the top one looks like it's not the right fit on you at least to me? The way the straps frame you on the top dress is really delicate and pretty. But I have to say the bottom dress looks more sliming and better suited to your body. Hope that helps!

    @Cricket - yah - it totally didn't fit me as far as sizing goes, I'm about 1-2 dress sizes bigger than the sample ones in the smaller boutiques.

    Totally #1- I really like the hourglass silhouette- it gives you a great waistline.  And it just looks like so much fun to wear!

    they are both so beautiful but i love the second one on you!

    Make sure you try them both on, and regardless of our opinions see how they each make YOU feel! you should know what one is right for you.

    I like both dresses but I think Dress #2 makes your waist look teeny tiny and it really shows off your great figure!

    I vote PAIGELY!!

    I voted for the second one, you look gorgeous. Also, I think I partially like it better because your hair is down and you have the veil on--so I thought I'd throw it in there that I like your hair down with that dress. Are you planning of wearing it that way?

    I love 1.  I just think it is way more visually interesting and makes your waist so tiny.

    #2 gets my vote. You look much slimmer in it - it's just generally a lot more flattering. But it is hard to tell because of the lighting and the way you're angled in the photos. The top of #1 looks odd to me for some reason - was the sample size much larger than what you wear?

    haha this thread reads like my thoughts.  I'll prefer one, and then I'll teeter-totter back and forth and then prefer the other one.

    @thefuturemrsgibbs - I like ruffles, but most of all I just love Hamlet because its so dream-like.

    @littlemissmoo - Dress #1 was actually smaller than what I wear, which is why it doesn't look right.  I wish I took the picture in the same way that I did with the Paigely.
