    Hey bees!

    I'm stuck and was hoping to get some of your thoughts on two dresses I can't choose from!

    The dress on the left I fell in love with and haven't been able to stop thinking about it for months.  Then TODAY (like a moron), I went to a bridal shop and tried on a few others "just to make sure."  Well... I fell in love with another one.  (The one on the right).  You can't tell in the picture but the designs on the dress are FULL of sparkle.  I love it!  BUT, they're so different and I've spent so much time convincing myself that the one on the left is THE ONE I'm having trouble changing my mind.

    Just curious what you guys think!!??

    I don't!  I have a more boxy waist and the 2nd one definitely gave my waist a nicer shape (although the bridal shop lady pulled it super tight on me so that may have helped!!).  Regardless, I think I can always buy something to suck me in on the wedding if I chose the first.

    I think both dresses are beautiful.  How do you want to look on your wedding day?

    Unfortunately I'm not allowed to take pictures of me in either at these shops.  :(

    Such a bummer!

    I personally like the first one better.  Both are beautiful, but I like the slightly simpler style of the first one (plus I think dancing in it would be a bit easier).

     

    I'm sure you'll look lovely either way!

    wow they are both beautiful! I like the first one, because it's brighter to be honest! But I think the strapless is more elegant! 

    We should so see pictures of you in them!!

    Definitely number two...number one is a bit too plain jane for my tastes, and it looks like number two would really accentuate curves!

    What sort of wedding are you having? I love them both too-- and the 2nd one resembles the dress that I just bought (and adore!)-- but depending on the amount of sparkle and due to the mermaid cut, the 2nd one MAY be better for a fancier affair. However, it is sort of romantic and ethereal at the same time. The first dress is pure loveliness. I was first drawn to those styles myself. Are you having an outside wedding or an outside photo shoot? If so, the first one will look AMAZING. At the end of the day, though, I guess the dress will fit your affair no matter what because it's yours! Hard decision!

    I like them both but it sounds like you are leaning towards #2, which is probably my slight fave as well!

    I really like the straps on the first one.  And the simplicity of it.

    Both are absolutely gorgeous dresses, but for some reason, #1 is drawing my attention more. I don't know what it is...maybe the soft romantic look of it? Either one you choose will be fabulous, but I think I would go with #1.

    Good luck!!

    ok..so they are really nice dresses but i think they are completly opposite..the first one is very simple yet young and elegant is its own way, the second one is wow, very glamorous and sexy... it depends on you... it depends of what kind of wedding you are having like if it is an outdoor wedding i would go with the first one, but eitehr case, it is on you... with which dress do you see yourself walk down thee aisle??

    I love the straps on the first one, but I agree that it depends on what type of wedding you are having. The second is much more formal to me.
