Help! I'm stuck between two wedding dresses

So I found these two great dresses. The first picture is very flowy and shows off cleavage and a little leg when I walk. The second is fitted and I can add a belt.

So I found these two great dresses. The first picture is very flowy and shows off cleavage and a little leg when I walk. The second is fitted and I can add a belt. I'm getting married on Oahu on the beach. Both look good on me but I can't decide. They also in my budget. My fiance wants to wear an aloha shirt (he is Hawaiian) and we are having a luau afterwards. My bridesmaids and my mom are split. Half like one and half like the other. Please any advice/suggestions would be helpful!

    Dress 1 is much better for your locale and your fiance's attire but you are falling out the top of it.

    The second one is really pretty but not for a beach wedding... Go with the first one

    The first dress lends itself the best to a beach wedding!

    Number 1 fits the theme it seems, plus it looks great

    They'll both need to be hemmed. However, I think that #1 will be easier to shake sand off of.

    I’m in the minority that I like the second...I like the first too but I just prefer the more traditional structured dress. I’m getting married on the beach too, and my dress is lace. I did go with a dress that was somewhat simpler than a ball gown but I still think it sill go ok with my venue! I think I’d go with the first if you need to travel with the dress, though!

    I like the 1st one for a beach wedding. The other looks beautiful also but just doesn't look like a beach wedding.

    The first one fits for a beach wedding, the second one is too formal for beach wedding.

    Love the first one. It's very flattering on you and I love off the shoulder sleeves. (I'm adding sleeves like that to my strapless dress)

    Dress #1 is gorgeous on you! #2 is pretty but seems too restricting for a beach wedding

    #1 looks way more fitting for a beach wedding in my opinion! But #2 is very classy and much dressier. Both look beautiful on you though!

    I think #1 is more flattering to your figure and fits the beach vibe better.

    For sure the first one- I LOVE those straps. Plus it looks way more like a beachy dress and fits your figure really well. If the cleavage is an issue, you could always put some material in that area or something.

    For a beach wedding the first dress is a necessity it is amazing and absolutely perfect for that! I think the second dress is much to dressy for that kind ceremony.

    My TH and I both like #1. I think it would be perfect for a beach wedding over #2 and looks more comfortable
