I've narrowed my search down to two dresses that are the same shape (mermaid) but have very different detailing on them. One has a lot of beading and a long formal train, and the other dress has a wonderful white lace but is definitely more on the simpler side.
Dress #1 : Allure Couture Bridal c568
Dress #2 : Suzanne Neville Athena (will have an oyster/champagne lining instead of the grey that is currently used in the dress I tried on in the photos)
I would love to get some feedback on which one I should go with
In terms of venue, we are having our wedding in Chicago in a typical loft/big windows sort of space. Think lots of candles and string lights haha. We don't plan on going super formal with our decorations and I really want to be sure that I don't clash my dress with the vibe of the space. Our venue options right now are Greenhouse Loft, Room 1520, and Skyline Loft.
I also want to be able to dance my butt off haha so I don't know if the train will be a hassle.
Thanks in advance!
