Let's play a game!

[bullygirl979]

It's called, "which dress should Bully wear?"

Fun facts about my wedding. It'll be a 2 day event, starting with P and I being married in a park by his friend. Then, we will be doing a reception two days later. It's in a small art gallery, with catered heavy hors d'oeuvres, drinks, dessert.

So, which dress do you like?

Option A:

Dress needs to be taken in up top and let out in the hips. I also have horrific posture in this picture, lol.




Option B:

The dress is ivory, not green. Just odd lighting in the shop.



Option C:

The dress is too big, but I can size down. I'm pulling it tight so it looks sized right.



Option D:

I love B and also D. Could you wear one for the wedding and one for the party? Or do you want to wear the same one for both?

[bullygirl979]

tiramisu, I totally could but I was trying to stay under a budget which currently means 1 dress. Plus, the wedding will literally be 10 minutes, plus a couple hours of pictures so I won't wear it long. The three of us (me, P, his friend) will go out to celebrate later on that day, but I'm planning on changing before we go out. I will just get a fun party dress for that.

I have a favorite but I'm not telling yet

If you got D, what shoes? This may change my vote

Oh, I don't know. Regardless, I probably would wear flats as P and I are the same height and I don't want to look like an Amazonian in our pictures

They all look great on you! I voted for Dress B.

[spindle92]

Hands down Dress B.
It is stunning on you and looks very elegant.

A is pretty but I love, love, love the overlay on B and the brocade thingy on the sash. (I think that is a sash).

C is pretty but does not hold a candle to B.
And sorry but I think D looks like a first communion dress. Just not my style.

[smock]

My favorite is B––but you look fantastic in all of them!

My runner up is D. It would definitely give a different feel to the wedding, though, since it's such a cheeky, fun dress versus more formal. I think it depends on what you're going for.

[gault]

My vote is a or b!

[turtle1120]

I think option B is perfection!!!!

[udscoobychick]

B for sure!

[cosmowife]

I absolutely love D. Very Audrey Hepburn.

[dreamcrisp1]

(I am lurking creepily) B is perfection on you!!!

Haha. I purposely did a poll so lurkers could vote. Although, given we are FB friends, I wouldn’t categorize you as a creepy lurker 😉

[cuddlyevil]

This is me! I love them both. There is something so Audrey Hepburn/Grace Kelly about D. I really love it.

[bullygirl979]

smock, I honestly could wear any of them and be fine. The art gallery is in a cool, old warehouse with exposed brick, etc. And given we are getting married in a park, I don't have to worry about looking too formal. The only real look I want to stay away from is "I'm a 22 year old beebee bride!!" Given it's a second wedding for both of us and I'm almost 40, I didn't want a big foofy dress or anything with a train. I want to look like a bride, but not be over the top ZOMG! WEDDING!

spindle92, my sister had the same feedback about D. She said I could definitely make it look cute, but I'd need the right accessories/shoes so I don't look like I'm making my first communion.

I like B, but is there an option for a different sash? Like maybe a thinner, simpler one?

[mags]

B 100%

D looks like you are going to the grand ole opry

I'm pretty sure it's sewn on.

[kaneen]

B, no question.

B is the best of them all.
I like D, but the lace at the neckline is too "big" for your frame. If they could drop that to below your collarbone or shape it in a way it doesn't look like you've got a full fan stuffed in your top... it'd be a lovely option.
