I like the way the allyssa wraps around your figure the best and I love the beadwork on it
I'm usually a sucker for all things Pronovias, but wow, the Allyssa is STUNNING! Def. the Allyssa!
I love how the Alyssa looks on you! So slimming and the beading is georgeous! If it were up to me that's the one I'd pick...second choice would be the first maggie...I don't like the third one at all. Good luck!
I have the Hampton! The picture online does not do it justice. I over looked the dress online, but I was in awe when I saw it in the store. I ordered it in diamond white/ pewter.
You look beautiful in all of the dresses! I suggest that you go with the Hampton since you said that you fell hard for it.
hmmm - i think it's a tricky one!! They all look lovely on you. You have a very similar shape/figure to me and I fell in love with the Hampton too!!! lol. They all look lovely on you - I had a similar problem but in the end my heart told me which dress to go for... it actually didn't matter what family and friends said - go with the one YOU love and the one that makes YOU feel amazing! Seriously! It's your day after all.
Take your time deciding though. :-)

I like them in the exact order you put them in.
Wear the one you love, he'll love you in it.
Yall are SO great!! It's SO helpful to hear people's opinions!
I have hips, but a small waist...so it gets tricky...def no mermaids or fit and flares! :)
I do love the Pronovias, but I think I like the other two better on me...*sigh*
My ONLY problem with the Allyssa is the top. You cant see in the picture but the sweetheart comes up very severely, which my girl told me was because it was too big for me, and even if it was too drastic when I got it they can alter it...but I'm nervous about that.
I think I need to go back and try on JUST the Hampton and Allyssa again? Your opinions are helping so much though!! Thanks!!
I think the allyssa looks gorgeous on you. And I love the dramatic sweetheart neckline! The hampton is very pretty too, but I feel like because of the poofiness it loses some of the detail (I had to look really closely to see the beading detail on the ruffly poofs). Ultimately it's whatever makes YOU feel gorgeous.
I personally think they all look great on you but, I am with ya, the Hampton is my fave!!
I think that all 3 are beautiful on you but heres how I like them in order
1) Allyssa
2) Hampton
3) Pronovias Nicole
The allyssa is the most flattering because of the cut of the neckline and the way the rouching is...I also think that the skirt is more romantic. The Hampton is beautiful and flattering on top but I do agree that the skirt looks a little bit like a down comforter...and I think it does in the model picture as well. The Pronovias Nicole is beautiful but it just doesnt have the WOW factor of the other 2. I would say go with the Allyssa! Honestly, the biggest difference between the alyssa and the hampton is the skirt!
I love the Alyssa - all of the detailing and rouching harmonize well together. What a lovely dress.
I really liked the Alyssa on you, it really gives you a nice shape!
you look great in all of them..i wish i could say the same thing for my self..ugh!
anyways im not CRAZY for ruffles at all.... i love the nicole and the alyssa... the alyssa is really nice on you! i would go with the maggie sottero dress, so you would have a fuller skirt and a little ruffle and you def wont look like a duvet cover! :)
The Hampton flatters your figure the best, it really excentuates your curves :)
I really like the Alyssa on you.
All of them are beautiful though!
I really like the Alyssa. It is really flattering on you. The neckline is awesome.
You have a fabulous figure, by the way. While all three dresses look great, you look stunning in the Allyssa!
The hampton is very similar to my dress, so I'm biased, it looks amazing on you! I guess mine looked like a down comforter too, I loved it!

I can see why you're having a hard time! They're all so wonderful. I picked the Allyssa. I think the deep sweetheart looks really good on your body, and the curve of the dress accentuates your body so well!!
im stuck between the first 2 but i picked the second... i think your opinion would be tainted the day of the wedding and you would be worried constantly about what people are thinking... but then again who cares what people think... and you know what you have a very feminine figure that can pull off any style.. maybe try on a few mermaid dresses.. i kept trying on ball gowns thinking thats what i wanted and then i knew i found the one in the first mermaid gown i tried on... im so in love with my dress now.. and on only 5'3'' but it works... id say if your still not sure dont just try on different ball gowns get pictures of yourself in as many different shaped dresses as you can
It's so hard to know without a picture of you in the hamtpon. I also feel like my dress just isn't the same in the stock photo. I say go with the dress you love, which it sounds like is the hampton. Based on the other two dresses, I'm sure you look stunning in it. It certianly is a beautiful dress. So my vote is for the Hampton!!!
Oh sorry! I didnt indicate as clearly that the first one was the Hampton, the second was the Allyssa, and the third was the Pronovias. I just realized the Hampton didnt get labeled, but I think most of you figured it out!
And yes! I think my biggest fear right now is that I'll be paranoid all day thinking what two people very close to me had to say about it! Namely, my handsome FH! :) He's honestly and truly the guy who would be happy to marry me in a potato sack! But regardless of how I know he'll love whatever I have on, I dont want to put on something he's already mentioned negatively...as much as I ADORE it!
I dunno! Decisions decisions! I am VERY busy this week/weekend, so I suppose that will provide some time to step back...get some perspective...then head back in to try them on again! :) OH goodness...pray for me! ha
Actually, I like the Pronovias Nicole the best, in fact, I think your waist looks smaller in that one. But they're all pretty.
I love the Pronovias ... the diagonal lines across the bust really do help in making you look thinner!
It's tough because they all look so beautiful on you and they're all so flattering!! I really love the Alyssa though.
You look great in all the dresses but I voted for the Allyssa. I think it's the most flattering of the three and I love the neckline and the beading on it. And the skirt isn't as poufy as the Hampton (and maybe not so much like a duvet as your sister says).

So i've been to 5 different places, and like 3 different dresses. I fell IN LOVE with a Maggie...the Hampton. But then my sister said the picture of me made it look like a duvet cover! UGH. Then my FH saw me looking at the picture of the model in it, and he didnt know I liked the dress (I've been looking at so many online!) and so he said he thought the bottom looked like a dust ruffle! In the picture, I suppose the bottom layer does look a bit more like it. And the pictures dont do it justice for how it actually looks I dont think!

BUT, then theres the Maggie Allyssa that I loved. And the Pronovias Nicole. But I didnt fall hard for these the way I did the Hampton. But now that I'm hearing these opinions, its changing mine. Now maybe I think it looks like a duvet? UGH!
What do you ladies think!? Which dress do you like best?? Keep in mind, the Pronovias and Allyssa are not as froofy because we took the picture before any petticoat underneath...so imagine them fuller skirted.
Maggie Sottero - Allyssa
And finally, the Pronovias - Nicole
