    I'm not going to tell you my feelings on either one, which one I'm leaning towards, or the price of either. I'm just going to show you a photo of each one:

    I picked Dress #1, Tea length is really difficult to pull off. The proportions on dress #2 just look off.

    I think you look great in both- depends on the formality of your wedding. With the tea-length dress you could certainly rock some great shoes!

    I don't think that the cut of the short one is as flattering as it could be. The full length one is a great cut and gorgeous dress. That gets my vote!

    I love the full length on you.  It really looks beautiful on you.

    I think the tea length is so much more flattering on you.  It makes you look so petite.  I think the long one really ads a lot of bulk to your body where there is obviously none.  I'm also not a fan of how the long one just sort of hands on you.

    I reallllly like the tea-length dress. I feel like the long dress accentuates your boobs, while the tea-length dress accentuates your waist.  (The pictures are taken at different angles, so that could be a contributing factor too.)  You look beautiful in both, so you can't go wrong either way, but #2 gets my vote!

    On you, full-length. I dont know what it is... but.... I hate to say it but, the tea-length one makes you look big. Way bigger than you are.... it's not so cute. The full-length one really elongates you and makes your waist look itty-bitty.

    If judging by dress alone, I vote the tea-length. It's a really, really cute dress.

    The full length one is more flattering to your waist and chest. It's the structure from the waist up that makes it, though, not the longer length.

    If you want tea length, maybe you could find another one that is designed slightly different on top.

    I think you could pull off the tea length, and it looks fun, but this one looks too big for you on top.. was it a bit loose? It gives you a broader silouette than the long dress. Because of that I'd pick the long one, but if it were well adjusted, maybe I'd change my mind!

    @zippylef: I think it's funny how we can have the exact opposite opinion! I think that the tea-length dress makes her look much smaller. Weird.

    I like the style of the tea length, but I wish it was long length.

    I don't see anything special about the long length and it's not as flattering as the tea length that i like but wish it was long....

    Back to drawing board? (sorry, ducks head)...

    @Boston Bee: lol. yeah.

    There's just something about the proportions of the short one that seem a little off. Maybe if the skirt were a little shorter? Or maybe a bit fuller? The bodice just seems a little short and looks boxy to me. I really like the dress itself.

    The photo of the long dress was taken at a different angle and makes me look a lot thinner than I am in it. Admittedly, it's not the best photo for this type of poll but it's the only one that I have.

    So maybe I shouldn't have asked the question. Hahaha.

    Between the two I prefer the long length. Sorry to offend anyone, but I'm not a fan of tea length wedding dresses at all. Although I like the top of #2 so maybe you could keep looking for a dress that combines the best elements of both?

    I want to like the short one, but it really doesn't seem to do much for you. At the same time, neither does the long one, and there is nothing very special about it either imho. Soooo...can I say neither one? :P

    I'll chime in again to say that I am totally leaning towards the tea length. It's just so much more ME and so much more appropriate for our outdoor garden wedding. I liked the first dress because it was so flattering but the more I look at it, the more I think it's just kind of boring on me. I think the tea length is sassy and fun.

    I also like it because it'll show of my shoes so well.

    But thanks for the input!. I prefer to go dress shopping alone so it's nice to get some objective opinions.

    I like them both, and think that they both look really good on you.  That said, I think that, from what I know of your personality online, the tea length seems more like you.  I vote for tea length!

    @danadelphia:That's so weird that you said the tea length was much more you!  I just typed my response and when I hit enter, I noticed that you had said the same thing.

    I much prefer the long one . . . the band on the tea length gown does not seem to hit you at your narrowest part and makes you look more *square* than the longer gown.

    That is a tough call. I voted the tea length one bc I like the actual dress more. It the tea length dress was full length it would be stunning on you. =)

    Normally I am all about the tea length, but I really like the longer one on you.  It gives you great preportions and makes you look long and lean.  The longer is very elegant and just a stunning dress.

    ok, I look at it for a few minutes, its the sash on the tea length that is throwing the dress off.  Maybe if it were a flat sash or no sash.  As it is, it is just adding to what you want to narrow.

    I love the short one!  I think it depends what you are going for- they are so different.  The short one is more fun, the long one is more elegant.  I think the short one is very cute for an outdoor wedding and very you.  :)

    I honestly think they both look great on you, but they're such different styles it's hard to compare.

    If you like the tea length, go with the tea length!

    The tea length just seems more unique and, from posts you've made, I don't see you as a bride wearing anything similar to anyone else.

    I think I would like the tea length dress if it was a little bit shorter maybe just below the knee. But if you are keeping it as is I would have to vote long dress

    I love the tea length but you look AMAZING in the full length dress. I kind of want the tea length dress to be either shorter or full-length.

    Wow, the votes are neck and neck!

    If I go with the tea-length, I probably will get it shortened a few inches.
