Sleeves. I love the look of strapless but I hate always pulling the dress up. I don't care for long sleeves personally but some kind of something to hold the dress up is great.

I thought for sure I’d get a dress with sleeves but then I ultimately got a strapless gown that I’m obsessed with

Sleeves! I have straps on mine and I feel much more comfortable for moving around with them on!

I prefer dresses with sleeves even if they are short or cap sleeves or off the shoulder.

I prefer straps. Strapless makes me look like I have man shoulders.

Strapless. I've put waaay too much thought and money into meaningful tattoos simply to have them covered the day of my wedding.

Between the two, sleeves. But my dress was neither.

Spaghetti straps. I don't want to be pulling at my dress all night.

I'm going for sleeves. The hassle of having to pull up my dress while dancing is something I don't want.

I like the dresses with the sheen so it appears like you're strapless but don't have to worry about popping out while dancing around. And I love a sweetheart top which not many of those come with sleeves. For a fall/winter wedding lace or sheer sleeves look really nice though.
