    Hi Bees,

    I need your opinion to help me deciding on which reception dress to wear. I originally bought a tan color silk gown (shown below) for my reception, but one of my bridesmaid suggested that I should wear a shorter dress instead for dancing. Since my wedding is outdoor and located in the tropics, I thought that's a good idea, so I bought another one (also shown below). But after I got both dresses, I'm a little torn...I love both of them! I guess I could wear both, but that would mean I have to change into reception dress a lot sooner and I do want to wear my wedding gown for as long as possible. So if I have to pick one, which one should it be?

    OOoh! They are both very pretty but I think the first one looks way more comfortable so I vote that one! Also if it is real silk, it will be so light and breathable you will not have to worry about being hot (or being hotter than you would be in a short dress) Good luck! let us know what you pick!

    I'm going to have a rehearsal dinner, but it's going to be very casual and by the beach, so I'm not sure if this will be too formal.

    Thanks Bees! I've decided to go for the pink short dress.

    I don't know what size you wear or anything, but I saw that pink one (if it's the same one) on Bluefly on sale.  Is it a bcbg?  It's really cute!

    @futuremrsmaista:  Yes! It's a BCBG. I actually did get it from Bluefly a while back. :)
