    I have narrowed by wedding dress down to three options, all maggie sottero, they are coco, melissa brooch, and jenna. The Melissa is $100 more than the coco and the Jenna is $100 more than the Jenna. Not a huge deal, although I am over my budget with all three (by just a few hundred). Anyways, I will try to post pics of me in all three this weekend.. I only have pics of the Coco, which I will post when I get the other two photos...but based on the website which do yall like best? They all look great and I love them all!

    I like the first and last dresses. I think that the middle one is just... too much, personally. I'm a simple kind of girl.

    yeah I am a simple girl too..I thought that the Jenna was too much..until I tried it on. I got lots of compliments and thought it looked awesome but I still can't decide if it could be "too much" plus its the most expensive.

    I am not a simple girl.... JENNA ALL THE WAY!

    That dress is gorgeous. I love the criss-cross ruching on the corset and the ruffle skirt! It is just divine!!!!! Can't wait to see you in the dresses!

    looks like the coco is everyones favorite..once i get the pics of me in the dresses, we'll see if they opinions are the same. But, I do love the Coco, it was my first love for a dress and its cheaper (bonus!)

    I like #3 the best but if you want alot of sparkle go with #1. I agree with some of the others that #2 is too much......Unless ofcourse you want it to be too much. :)

    Go with the COCO, I am wearing coco for my wedding, it's so gorgeous and it defines all your assets. Have you tried it on?

    They are all beautiful.. I'd call 1: elegant, 2: Pizzaz & 3: Clean and Simple.

    You might think about what kind of presence you want to have.. do you want to look regal.. go with number 1, do you want to make a statement, go with number 2, do you want to be a little more understated.. so that you make a statement, rather than the dress, go with number 3.

    I agree with everything everyone has said here. 

    1) I love the material and the sparkle.  Very classy yet fun dress

    2) Is a bit much for me and not in a good way. 

    3) Simple but very pretty, people will see you and less of the dress.

    The order of my vote would probably be 1, 3, 2.

    I'm voting #3 too, although it's hard to say for sure without seeing pics of you wearing them. Think not only about how you looked in the dresses, but how you felt. You should feel confident and beaming in the right dress.

    I'm more of a simple girl so I like the third dress.  They're all beautiful though, seriously!

    thanks for the input...Number three I felt had a prettier back than coco, but I dont have a pic of it..its similar, but it had a brooch on the back rather than nothing and a slight poof. I have tried on the Coco and the Jenna, not the Melissa, but I am doing that Saturday. I will post those pics Saturday and then see if anyone has changed their mind. lol. And I plan on losing at least ten pounds before the wedding, so I will hopefully look better than the pics although one of the reasons I love the dresses is how slimming and yet curve hugging they are. thanks again

    Wow I really can't tell you. I think they are all stunning in their own ways. I think the decision would have to be based on what they look like on. Do you have any pictures of that?

    update--- here is a pic of me in the coco ( the only pic of the three I have)..the dress sample is a tad to small keep in mind..and has a slight tear in the back, which makes it have a hole at the butt. lol (and forgive the bored look of my face)

    I've always hated dresses with beading up top because it rubs my arms raw....

    Also, I'm more into clean and simple so I voted #3. I think you look awesome in #1 which is similar to #3 so... it's really more of a matter of how you feel about the beading up top? I know you said you were plain and simple too... do you like the beading?

    Oooh, the Coco at the moment, although seeing pictures of you in the other two could sway things.

    Number one or number three depending on your opinion on beading, as to whether or not you like sparkle. Of, Course I may change my mind after I see pictures of you in them.
