    i love #4... it is so dramatic, but still looks really soft and feminine

    I love the top of #3, really does well for your figure. Not sure I like the deconstructed bottom. I like #4 as well!

    #2 is actually my least favorite!  I love the top on #3 and #1.

    I love both #1 and #4! I voted for #4, but #1 is a close second. :)

    @PennyLainne: I believe my words just now were: "OMG....#4!" That skirt is just so lush, the bodice compliments you. It just says "bride" effortlessly. Gorgeous design!

    #1 is my favorite. If you could take the top from #2 and the bottom from one (so a trumpet with ruffles), I think that would look best on you!

    Just wanted to add one more thing.  #1 and #4 are similar conceptually, but I really like #4 over #1 because it looks more sophisticated and elegant somehow.  I definitely agree with Cornflakegirl that it says "bride" effortlessly.

    I liked #1 and #3.  I'm a huge fan of embellishments like the one at the waist of #1.  I think #3 looks really great on you, too.  I have seen the dress before and wasn't crazy about it, but I think it looks fabulous on you.  It's doing something really nice to your waist.  :)

    #3 was an easy choice for me. It really shows off your figure and it's a bit edgy, without being too avante garde. I like things that are a little unexpected. But is that what you are going for? Or is your style more traditionally "bridal"? If so, then #1 is the better choice. It's also quite lovely on you.

    Thank you for your input! I love hearing your opinions.

    As for what I am going for? I want to look stunning. my opinions on each of the dresses. 

    #1 I really like it but it has become really popular and not that that is a bad thing I just want something different and unique. And I don't really like the sweet heart on me either

    #2 I love it. But at the same time something is holding me back and I am thinking it is because I look chubby in the pictures.... This is the one that made my mom tear up and every one in the shop told me that I looked stunning in.

    #3 Love the top! Unsure about the bottom.

    #4 I love the bottom! Not so much the top. It is very plain. There was no sparkle to it I know I could add a belt but .... I don't know. I do love the way this one felt and flowed.

    I tried on a couple mermaids and well... Not on this Girl! I am too much of a pear for them. I am soooo indecisive. *ugh*

    #1 - It was tough to choose between 1 and 4, but I like the ruffles on the skirt of 1 better (more clean looking) and I can't resist a little bling!

    #1 and #4 are similar

    but what i like better about #4 is that it doesnt have the studded (or what have you) floral applique thing.

    @PennyLainne:  I wonder if you could have a seamstress add some beading to the top of #4. An example of this is on my dress.  It has an embroidery and white bead applique.

    Hands down #1.  I havent really seen anyone wear that so its still unique to me  :)  #4 is very similar but I like the smoother  transition from the bodice to skirt more in #1.

    I really love number #4! It is my favorite, because, even though it shares some similarities with #1, it is more classic and sophisticated. I agree with the PPs who have chosen this, along with their reasoning.

    However, I will also say that, although dress #2 is not something that I would ever consider for myself (I do not personally like asymmetry or one-shoulder dresses), it looks amazing on you.  It's fun, very different, and you look as if you could really rock that dress and have fun in it! Those are two very different looks, but those would be my choices for YOU.   It just depends on the vision that you personally want to achieve for your wedding.

    Definitely number 1. I love the sweetheart neckline on you and I think the sparkly embellishment is absolutely gorgeous! #4 is a close second. I'm not really a fan of the other 2.

    #1 made me audibly say "oooh". 

    I like #4 as well, but #1 flows so well from the top to the bottom.  #4 kind of cuts you right in the middle.

    I LOVE #4... i also like #1 but (and i'm sorry in advance) i've seen it on too many brides and this its too common. i like unique things... i think if you go with either one you will be stunning and radiant but id say mabe ad some personal touches to 4 and see how she does... good luck!

    @Pappy8: I think that #1 is becoming too common too. As for the happiness rating my Mom kept taking pictures while I was talking... I have some very funny pictures with some very funny expressions.

    @PennyLainne: You absolutely do NOT look chubby in the second gown! I could tell from the pic that you love this gown, and, I do not think you should hesitate to get it if the only thing holding you back is that you feel chubby.  If I loved it, I'd go back and try it on again and have some additional photos taken from different angles to provide you with some reassurance. (Your mom and the salon staff were not going to encourage you to purchase a gown that makes you look less than your best.) As I said before, that dress is so different and so fun!

    I voted for number 2, I really like the style of that dress. I think people didnt vote for it as much because the picture isnt a great angle and doesnt do you justice. I like dress # 1 too but I dont like the color.. its a bit too bright white for me

    I really like number 4, and 2. Number 4 would look great with a belt if you choose to add one. I really love all the detail on number 2 though.
