Hi everyone!

I need everyone's help trying to decide on two dresses that I really loved. I've always envisioned myself in a whimsical dress filled with 3D floral appliqués, and these two dresses definitely fulfilled all of my wedding dress dreams. But I'm having a hard time deciding between the two.

This first dress was actually my first ever wedding dress that I tried on and I immediately fell in love with it because the train is just beautiful and I love how the dress looks like it has vines all over with the flowers. I'm just worried about the Champagne lining with the Ivory appliqués. While I love the color contrast when I first tried it on, I'm just scared it'll look different especially while we're on the beach (we're having a destination wedding in Thailand). This dress does come in Ivory/Ivory or White/White, but they don't have either of those available for me to try on in store, so I'm just worried it won't give me the same feeling the Champagne/Ivory one does. I also don't know if I love the bodice (and velvet belt) of this dress when I compare it with the second dress which has a nicer bodice and sweetheart neckline.

This is the second dress that I fell in love with. I love the sweetheart neckline on this one and love how the bodice fits and looks on me. I also love how you can see the boning and a little sheerness in the bodice area. It has a sparkly shimmer throughout that is just gorgeous when it catches the light. But I'm not loving the train of this dress as much when I compare it to the train of the first dress. I also feel that because this is pure white (or maybe Ivory? I didn't check what color this was) you can't actually see the 3D flowers on the dress as much. I did get to see a beautiful pearl veil on me in this dress (along with a little flower crown) and I loved it so much.

    I love the first one. It's beautiful and whimsical. Also, I think it fits your frame better. You might even be able to get a tailor to make it into a sweetheart neckline if you really want that. I think that would be an easy alteration actually.
