Torn between 2 dresses!

Hello ladies! Needing some advice on picking a dress from 2 lovely options…I purchased both on solo shopping trips, and am excited to have a big reveal for all my bride crew, gf’s and future MIL. I am second guessing which one nd dont want to have a dress change…marrying in spring in New Orleans. Courtyard ceremony, creole dinner to follow and of course a 2nd line parade! Torn between 2 dresses! 1

I purchased the sleek Mikado dress first, the lace sleeves are detachable for the reception and the dress will need to be taken in the bust, got the sparkly veil as well. The second dress has lovely bead work and the open back is very French-y to me Smiley smile i felt great in both, but the sleek one is nothing like what I have ever saved in Pinterest, but I do love the old Hollywood feel…help!

    The mikado will be hot in the spring, but it's still my choice! You look fantastic. Find a vintage fan and/or parasol in your preferred lace for your second line. Best wishes.

    A french bustle would look amazing on the first, and NOLA inspired. An American bustle commonly used for lace/tulle dresses like the second. Perhaps go by this vision in your decision.

    I thought about the fabric in the spring but luckily we are having a dusk ceremony so fingers crossed not too hot…
