So far it is between these two dresses. The first one is from a boutique, the sleeves turn into a bow and it has my fave type oof sleeves. But is is $800 more and has 0 sparkles (the belt was added for sparkle). The second one is from David’s bridal, my mom and I (mom is paying) love it, it is...

So far it is between these two dresses. The first one is from a boutique, the sleeves turn into a bow and it has my fave type oof sleeves. But is is $800 more and has 0 sparkles (the belt was added for sparkle). The second one is from David’s bridal, my mom and I (mom is paying) love it, it is breezy (wedding will be in Costa Rica) but it is itchy and the tulle isn’t high quality. Does anyone know if there is a quality version of the second one? Is it worth an extra $800 for nicer tulle and not-itchiness? cfb_1403265.jpg

    Have you looked at Cocomelody? I feel like they have dresses similar to these styles.

    #1 all the way. So dreamy. #2 even looks itchy and uncomfortable on you! Save $800 elsewhere to get your dream dress.

    My vote is to find a similar dress like #2 but definitely not from David’s Bridal.

    Have you considered adding some beading or sequins to add sparkle to a dress you may like? They’re both beautiful. If you like the second dress but want to be comfortable there are plenty of dresses with illusion tops like that. Try looking at the designer Watters for dresses like that. It’s not a very expensive line.

    I have to echo what everyone else said: the first dress just flatters your body so much better. The beautiful neckline it creates is everything! And I know lots of women like sparkles, but I don't care for them. I think the fabric details on the first dress look soft, romantic, and timeless.

    You are GLOWING in that first dress. You can add a sparkled belt and bedazzle a veil for that extra “bling”. 1000% Dress #1, it’s stunning!

    It may change your life lol

    Seriously, I had serious dress doubts until I stumbled upon Cocomelody. They customized the perfect dress for me, so if you see a design or silhouette that’s not quite right but close to what you want, message them. They can customize most things.
