I LOVE #1 and #4 on you but I’m very partial to lace…

@TequilaSunrise:  Thanks.  Now I have to vote, hmm, this is hard.  The only one I can easily eliminate is the second.

I voted for the third, but the first is definitely a close runner-up.

@TequilaSunrise:  I think it makes you look way younger than you are, younger than a bride should look.  And even though you are such a skinny minny, it’s just not as flattering in the stomach.  Don’t know why that is!

I voted 3, but it was a tough choice b/t 3 (all dreamy and goddess-like) and 4 (va-va-voom!). They both flatter you extremely well and they’re gorgeous!!

If you want honest feedback…

#1 is pretty, but sits too low on your chest, kind of makes you look a little short.  Might just be an alterations fix, but I also think the column does’t do anything for your figure

#2 You just don’t look very happy in it 🙂

Where is your wedding? Inside, outside? Night, day?

I love #3 – it is beautiful and flowy!  But #4 is great as well.  What style is your wedding?

I had a hard time choosing between 3 and 4, but voted #4 in the poll.  I think #3 is gorgeous, but it’s hard to tell what it would look like when it’s falling/sitting naturally, as it’s draped over the platform (is that what it’s called?).  If it were my dress, I’d probably pick #4 without the sash, just because I’m not too excited about the brown.  You have a great figure!

The pics you posted are all so different! Hmmm…. Yes, it can be very overwhelming.

I don’t know if this will help: I was going by a combination of my budget (tiny) and the general type of dress I already knew I wanted (in my case, something relatively simple, with little or no beading, small or no train and preferrably, not strapless). With that in mind, I tried on only dresses that fit both criteria (i.e., under $500 AND elegant, simple lines). From those, I picked out the ones I thought flattered me most.

And just when I was all set to order my dress (actually, it was a bridesmaid dress, ultra-formal, that I would have ordered in ivory or white), I magically tried on an actual wedding dress that was an off-the-rack, heavily discounted, discontinued model and… I was in love. AND I could afford it!

Maybe in my case it was just a fluke in the end, but if you can just narrow it down to the style you’d like, you can try on a bunch of different gowns until one jumps up at you and says, me! ME!

It’s sooo abstract, I know… Good luck!

PS: For what it’s worth, I think the second and fourth dresses look really nice on you. 🙂
