I feel awful. I'm down to two wedding gowns, both of which are absolutely gorgeous. I can't decide which one I like better. I'm just absolutely torn. On top of that, I have to order my gown on the internet, so I won't be able to try both on before deciding. I have no idea which one to choose... can y'all give me your opinion? Maybe you'll add a perspective I never saw when you tell me why you like the gown you chose. Thank you so much, it's very appreciated!

I like #2 best. It seems like it would be the most flattering on just about everyone and it is simply elegant. #1 doesn't look all that great on the model in optimal conditions, so I can't imagine it getting any better on someone else.

is that a pink light color in the first one? No. 1 gown feels more like a prom dress. I like gown No. 2 the best...no doubts about it.

Oops. I totally voted for the wrong one in the poll. Heh.
I like the first one better. Mainly because it's different than most wedding dresses out there. LOVE the color. IMO, wedding gowns start looking all the same when you see a lot of them. White, poofy, sleeveless, yadda yadda. I like one that stands out...and #1 is just dang purty!
:D
(Then again, I'm pretty much non-traditional in most of my views...so please take what I say with a grain of that salt)

I like the shape of #1 best, but I like the idea of a white dress better. Just me :)
Good luck choosing. If you like both equally, why not e-mail the pictures to your FH and ask his opinion? Or if you don't want to show him, just pick the one that will cost you less money - after all if you can't decide, why not?

I agree. I think #2 is just very classically elegant....

I have to say that I like the first one better because it is pink. The white gown is lovely too but hey, I am a little different & non-traditional :)

i like number 2. if its the wrong size you can get a dress maker and get them to do the zig zag in back it will look nice, better than the normal zipper sometimes. find a bridle dress fixer from your local bride shop.lol seemstress. taylor! mrs fix it! xoxoxoxox:kiss:

I like number 1. Here are some pictures of it on a real person:

I like the ivory a MILLION times better than the pink (as someone else said, the pink just says "prom dress" to me), but it's still not as classic and flattering to the body as the 2nd gown.
However, if the first one is what you like the best, then go for it!! It's YOUR gown and it's YOUR day... choose what makes YOU feel beautiful.

I really like #2 and if you got #1 the ivory looks much better.

I like number 2 the best. Have you called any local shops to see if they carry either dress. Not to buy it there just to try it on ... ofcourse don't say that. :)

I like #2 the best. I'm not so sure about the first one. I just looks like with even the dress on real people that it needs a lot of alterations to get a nice looking fit to it. I definately like dress #1 more in ivory than I do in pink! I don't care much for the pink!

I really like the first one. It's different, it's not something that will be on 1000 other brides. It's more memorable.
