    It's hard to say b/c they are very different looks...I can say I like number 2 the least.  I like the grecian look of number 1 but it would depend on how it looks on. I think number 3 has a very classic/elegant look

    #3 is lovely. I love the sweetheart neckline and the flowy but fitted look of the skirt!

    #3 is probably my favorite personally. #2 would be my least favorite. #1 is very elegant as well but isn't as traditionally bridal. The sweetheart neckline is pretty flattering on most people. I think the first one may look extremely flattering as well depending on the body type though because of the higher, almost empire waistline and deep v-neck.

    one really can't say unless we see pictures of YOU in it girl!

    these dresses can look totally different on and it just depends on what sort of style you are going for.

    I also like #3 and #1 - it depends on what would suit you and your location best. #1 is not as "bridal" like which could be really good or bad depending on your personal style.

    Good luck with your choice! do you have any pictures of you in the dresses? I think that would help :)

    #3 is my favorite because i love the sweetheart neckline but i would choose #1 if you're going for a "goddess" look

    I think all three are beautiful and soft and romantic looking, and you really can't go wrong with any of them.  Number 3 is my favorite, though.

    Have you tried them on yet?  That's a determiner in most cases...

    [The third one is my personal favorite, but glittergrl is right: We have to see you in them to make the best case for our favorites! :) ]

    if you are doing a beach wedding, I would say do #1.  If not, do #3.

    I like #3...it looks very classy/elegant and still gives you a silouhette and shape.

    I've tried on #1 and #3 and emailed one of stores I'll be going to this weekend to see if they had #2.  I have three dresses in mind at the first store (that's where #3 is at).  But I think I've ruled one of my choices out based on the online image.  Even though I liked it on me, the sample size was so big and I think the online image is a more accurate representation of how the dress is supposed to fit and I don't like it as much...here's that one: http://www.jasminebridal.com/html/en/web1_couture_2_a.asp?id=1373

    I liked #3 on me and I think it's just so sweet, but I'm not crazy about the sweetheart neckline...again, I think it's b/c the sample size is so big I can see how the waist would look using the clips, but the sweetheart neckline seemed so exaggerated so I'm trying to imagine how it would look on me if it was in my size.  The third dress I was considering at the first store isn't online (maybe it's just a very old style or she wrote the style number down incorrectly).

    #1 is the only dress I picked from the other store (and no dresses from the two other places I had appointments at).  I really liked #1 b/c it was so romantic and I think straps would be very comfortable.  Again, I could see how the waist and skirt would look, but the sample was so big that I had a harder time envisioning how the top portion would look and where certain parts would fall on me.

    I didn't take pictures b/c the earlier stores I visited had a policy against photos, but I know that the store I tried on #1 at said she did allow picturs to be taken.  I'll try to get to the stores during the week and post pictures before the weekend..and hopefully they'll have #2 for me to try on.  I do tend to like the dresses that aren't traditionally bridal.  My problem is that I liked almost every dress I tried on.  I don't know how peple choose just one dress!

    I like the black bow for #3- kinda a modern edge, #2 is more classic strapless. . .

    I like 1 or 3.

     After reading your additional comment about preferring a non-traditional dress........i'm more swayed toward #1.

     Congrats! i just made my final decision and put in my dress order this past Saturday. what a relief to have that out of the way! lol.....

    Kamster    5/31/08   NYC (wedding in FL)

    I think the most important factor is your body and how the dresses look on you.  I love the soft, flowy look of the first two dresses, but my feeling is that those would generally look best on a girl who is rather thin, while the structure of the third would be more forgiving.  That's just a guess, though - it's impossible to tell without seeing it on.

    Oh I love number 1. Such a pretty silhouette! I'm not so fond of strapless dresses in general, but number 1 has a lovely neck and shoulder line. I think it would be very flattering.

    im going to go against the grain here and say #2 - it is also very greek goddess but less modern, maybe it would depend on how old you are? Being 22 I would for sure opt for #2......i like #3 but its really typical and Im sure if you go to a couple wedding this year you'll see something very similar

    I like # 3, but it looks like the dress I bought for myself so my vote might be skewed!  Good luck!

    #3 is my fave out of the 3 your posted.

    #1 - fabric looks (GASP!) cheap and doesnt "fall" very well and i've completely forgotten what dress #2 looks like.

    Have a great time trying on dresses this weekend!
