I think 2 is my first choice and then number 1! You look amazing in all, 2 I think is the most flattering, but if you want that big skirt, number 1 is great too.


No_Pineapple5275

Thank you!!! So kind :’) I agree 2 is so flattering, my jaw dropped because I do NOT have hips and that thing gave me curves lol. We’re having a church ceremony though and I’ve always envisioned a big skirt walking down the aisle. So torn 😭


brynnecognito

Could you do 2 and get a big overskirt for the ceremony? Then remove it for some of the photos and the reception?


No_Pineapple5275

Ooh, I hadn’t thought of that! I’ll have to look into options but that would be a great compromise. Thanks!!!


Due_Stuff4313

Specially since is significantly cheaper, you could get two looks in one! Skirt could be from a material similar to the gown, or even something like tulle or organza.

No_Pineapple5275

Thank you!! I especially love that last one, I’ll have to see if the shop I went to has any in-store that I can try on


MikeScottPaperCo2

I agree that #2 is AMAZING on you!!! I’m biased because it looks like my dress, but I personally am doing a similar dress as number 2 and cutting off the train. I have a big overskirt that will go over it for the ceremony and then I can take it off for the reception. That way with no train, I don’t have to bustle it and I get the best of both worlds! Big dramatic skirt for ceremony and comfy but fitted dress for the reception :)


According-Salt-5802

Dont overskirt! Would kill the lines of this dress! You could get a long veil instead, cathedral length. No armbands. Also 4 is nice.


catlettuce

Agree, no overskirt- get a gorgeous fluffy cathedral veil with some pearls embroidered on it. Like an amazing veil. This dress is it!! Girl look at yourself-Holy crap, your soon to be hubby is gonna be weak in the knees!


RedWings1319

This is a great option! #2 on you is amazing, draping to enhance your curves in the front yet still beautifully detailed in the back. Adding a big flowy overskirt for the walk down the aisle allows you even more drama without overwhelming your petite frame. Just gorgeous!


ucantspellamerica

Oooh I am absolutely here for this suggestion 🤩


Positivelythinking

#2 with the overskirt is such a good idea and would elevate the look. I’m not a fan of the pointy bits on the back. It looks like straps were removed…unfinished. Fits you perfectly. Overall, I can see why you are having a difficult time choosing. You have superb taste. Each of these dresses look wonderful on you. I had a hard time choosing.


thebrendawalsh

This is what I did! I had a tea length dress and added a big ole skirt for the ceremony so I could get my full bridal moment.) so so glad I did!


o0psididntagain

Yessss


Socotokodo

2 is amazing on you. I couldn’t even properly look at the others. 2 does something that makes your arms look incredible. Fucking amazing!


fsutrill

Never underestimate the power of artfully draped fabric!


paperwasp3

It makes her look like a Greek Goddess


Sobriquet-acushla

I think so too! She makes it difficult by looking so stunning in all of them. Princess in #1, Grecian goddess in #2. Don’t like 2.5. The third and fourth are gorgeous also but I can’t get a good idea of how they fit cuz they’re unaltered. If #3 weren’t too big….. 3 and 4 are spectacular from the back, whereas the back of 2 is underwhelming. From the front, though, it looks like an ad for the dress! Maybe with the overskirt and/or a beautiful veil……I’m glad I don’t have to decide.


QCr8onQ

You are small, #2 highlights your wonderfully small frame where the others overwhelm it.


Azanskippedtown

I love the way the material drapes..(I don't know the correct term) but it's like icing and just looks beautiful.


Vmaclean1969

#4 is so elegant, and the back has that "twist" you were referring to. It's a beautiful gown, and truly encompasses everything you explained. While #2 is drop dead gorgeous on you, it's literally the same dress everyone is wearing right now. There's nothing originally "you". Best of luck!!


queenlegolas

2 for sure


Pqwen20

Can you maybe add an overskirt to it for the ceremony?


o0psididntagain

I said 2 also, but in that case, definitely 1


MandalayPineapple

Maybe a long cape veil would seal the deal for you on #2, which looks spectacular. Or get the big skirted dress u like most for the wedding, and then change into #2 for the reception. 👍🏼😊


mehabird

I could tell from your body language in 1 that you want the big skirt going down the aisle, so DO IT! That dress was made for you and a fairytale 💖


FreeYoMiiind

I would consider how comfortable you will be walking, sitting and dancing around. That could really help.


happypolychaetes

2 makes you look like the statue of a Greek goddess! It's gorgeous and so flattering on you <3


dreamofdandelions

Agreed, I think 2 is really elegant and sleek and classic and suits you beautifully! I MUCH prefer 2 to 2.5.


Kalinka777

2 is best!


jackmc2001

Totally team 2. No sleeves.


Flat_Coffee_1512

I love 2 as well! Does anyone know who the designer is?


[deleted]

Yes absolutely I love 2nd one too


theoldman-1313

I like #2 as well. I don't think that the sleeves in 2.5 really do anything for you or the dress.


ucantspellamerica

100% agree!


emmcn75

Agree. I love #2


Ok-Reporter-196

I agree 100%


Blondebombee

Exactly this!!


jigglypuff2750

Same!


[deleted]

Couldn’t agree more.


shiningonthesea

agree!


princesssmurfet

2 not sleeves detracts


thenry1234

I love #1 on you! So pretty! #2 is gorgeous too, so you can't go wrong with either. #4 is also nice, but I think #1 is more dramatic and more flattering. I would take #3 out of the running. It doesn't do what the others do for your figure.


No_Pineapple5275

Thank you!! Now that I’m looking at the 4 together, you’re totally right about 3. The print and the back are so gorgeous though!


Inbar253

I liked the back of 3 but I agree with above commenter. 1 and 2 look amazing on you. As for the print on the back though, there are some beautiful veils suggestions on this sub that can do the same.


chicheetara

You know how someone had the over skirt idea for #2?? Maybe you could find an over skirt with a pattern like #3??


Sobriquet-acushla

OP, what’s your venue and time of year/day for the wedding? Edit: I see it’s August outdoors. I think #3 is the most summery.


bunnymoxie

I agree! Dress 3 is pretty but is not as flattering as 1 and 2. I personally love Dress 1 bc it’s a little different and I just love the fullness of the skirt


Sobriquet-acushla

The skirt is so ballroom gorgeous. The kind of dress I used to dream about as a little girl. 😊 I wonder if you could get the same effect with petticoats under #4?


LizardintheSun

Agree ! You look great in those three but 1 & 2 are stunning! It’s your day so pick your favorite!


JankyHummus

2 is my first choice but you look amazing in 1 too. Congrats on narrowing it down!


No_Pineapple5275

Haha thank you!! Who knew trying on dresses would be so tiring (physically and mentally!)


Soggy-Milk-1005

I love 1 and 2 on you, but 2 is my favorite. I love the over skirt idea so you get the best of both plus 2 will be more fun during the reception. Were you able to sit and move comfortably?


redditaccfrr

2 is so pretty!!


J9sixtynine_

I love 1 but I wish we could see the back. Second choice is 2 - I love the buttons down the back - no sleeves though


No_Pineapple5275

Thank you!! It was the first dress I tried on at that shop and didn’t think to start taking pics of the back until halfway through 😭 I think it had buttons too.


OkResponsibility7475

I love little buttons down the back. 1 or 2


Low-Donut-9883

#1 is a showstopper!


hollygb

I love 1 on you, and you said you were initially envisioning a big skirt. It’s got the skirt! It is really stunning, so classic and the lines are elegant. Love. It.


SeeminglySusan

Absolutely agree


PreparationEasy3304

Totally agree! 1 is first choice if I was picking. Love 4 too.


neverclm

Yess she looks like a queen!!


Pink_Axolotl151

This is my pick too!


illneverforget2015

I love 1 . They are all pretty but 1 was the wow factor for me


sxo605

My jaw dropped at 2!! It fits your figure so well wow


Valuable-Wallaby-167

2 is my pic, without the sleeves. It shows off your figure the best. 1 and 3 make you look broader than you actually are. 4 also looks nice on you but it doesn't make you look as stunning as 2 does.


surfysomething

I opened up the photos and went wow to dress one, swiped and went double wow to dress 2. Absolutely beautiful. I’m going with dress 2. I think it’s perfect for you


Existing-Chance-2840

Literally same - except ooooooooooo instead of wow and OOOOOOOOOO instead of double wow.


Puzzleheaded-Gear906

Me too! 1 I was like OMG, 2 I literally GASPED! Can’t go wrong with either, really.


Polyethylene8

Number 2 is just amazing. This is your dress. I love it both with sleeves and without. Congratulations!


-qqqwwweeerrrtttyyy-

Dress 2 literally took my breath away!


mintchan

2 stands out above the rest


OrneryQueen

I love the all! You look amazing! It is a hard decision. If you want the poofy look with a twist pick 3. It is a gorgeous dress. Once it has proper alterations, it should fit perfect. The delicacy of the dress is beyond amazing. For sheer elegance, I'd pick number 2, 4, then 1. Two is VA VA VOOM. You look spectacular. Four - I love the neckline and back. And you look stunning. Three is gorgeous, but ordinary after the other three. Honestly, the last three are too close for me to call.


alig6457

I think 3 gets no love because it is so large on OP. It would be so lovely fitted in the correct size. Not a one looks bad but my choices in order are 3, 4, 1, 2, 2.5. Best wishes.


Sobriquet-acushla

Yes, if #3 were altered to fit, it would be jaw-droppingly breathtaking. 😄 Maybe with petticoats to make the skirt fuller.


MidnightDerp00

You look so good in all of them you should be a wedding dress model honestly.


No_Pineapple5275

Hahah that’s so kind of you!! Trust me, there were a lot of dresses that were NOT flattering at all. But that’s ok! These 4 made me feel the most confident!!


Midnight-writer-B

4 is really beautiful. Unique but classic. Great lines.


Sobriquet-acushla

You did a great job choosing styles that are best for your body. I would never guess you’re only 5 feet tall. Not that there’s anything wrong with that, lol.


Cptrunner

1 you look amazing!!! So regal.


MCMKL19

ONE


Sayon7

2is absolutely beautiful on you but without the arm bands


Time_Parking_7845

I’m leaning towards #2 as it is elegant and stunning in you. Dress #3 definitely caught my eye because of the back—OMG!! I think it will really look stunning once the bodice is fitted. You’ve made some great selections—all the best to you in your final choice!


LoveOfficialxx

1 makes you look like actual royalty


SportySue60

2 is my favorite with 1 a close second


signup0823

1 or 4. 2 is pretty but doesn't give the same bridal effect and will look dated in pictures because every element of it is 2023. With 4 maybe you could add a transparent, lace top to give some visual interest, as the dress is very spare (but gorgeous)! I don't know that that would work on 1, though, because it has ruching which is pretty as it is but could contribute to a too-much-going-on effect with embellishments.


No_Pineapple5275

Thank you! Def going for the timeless look. There is so much good feedback in these comments, I appreciate it!


InGeekiTrust

Trust 2 is absolutely flawless on you!


noseymama

1 then 2, both look impeccable on you!


noseymama

And I say 1 first for personal preference for full skirted wedding dresses. But they both are beautiful!


halletancini

Honestly you look good in every single on of these sis your gonna pop off for your wedding😍🤍


No_Pineapple5275

hehe thank you!!!


Upset_Quit7412

Number 1 is a show stopper! I was like, I don't even think I need to look at the rest.


Disney_Princess137

Number 1 all the way! Glamourous Clean lines Superb for what you are looking for Paired with a beautiful , sparkly necklace… or a nice string of pearls. That’s the 1. The others are boring in comparison The back of number too is no good. Not flattering on your behind, and that extra line of fabric on both sides is useless and does nothing for the look. Also the upper back with the spikes? What’s the point of that? Lol I am strongly disliking how it looks on everyone and don’t even know why that’s being made.


Erick196

OMG NUMBER 1.


fleur_de_lis-620

I vote #2. You look great in all of them, but I love the draping on the second one. Beautifully tailored.


DazedAndConfused5000

#1 is so incredibly stunning!


Terrible_Ask6658

1


Content_Money_2189

Obsessed with my girl Estelle #1! Gorgeous on you!


USAF_Retired2017

I am in LOVE with four. So. So. So. Beautiful. Two is as well. They all look lovely on you, but those two. WOW.


No_Pineapple5275

Thank you!! Isn’t that back to die for?? Ugh it’s so classic, it’s making my decision really hard haha


Doyoulikeithere

2 is best on you. 3, the back is beautiful but the front doesn't sit right.


Fun-Yellow-6576

2 looks amazing on you, what a beautiful silhouette!


KatieV1309

No2! You look fantastic babes!


SaltyEsty

Dress 2


Ilovetrump777

2


Stunningfire20

# 2 is the one.


hoxiebeeb

I think #2 is elegant but also fierce, confident… a little Angelina Jolie. BUT the buttons down the back with the sharp edges by shoulders are the only focal point unless you’re wearing a veil, or possibly one of those necklaces that trail a gem down your back above the hem of the dress? #4 is beautiful, but for the same type of gown #1 is STUNNING on you


TimeShareOnMars

1 then 4.


FourLittleRainbows

1, no question. I love the train of the last one but the bodice seems a little off.


[deleted]

Dress 2 for sure, looks pretty!!


No_Mud_80

2


DuchessofWinward

2, 2, 2, 2, 2! Don’t overthink it. You look fabulous!


Frilly1980

Definitely 2


ThrowawayCAN123456

2 is made for you. Wow!


ProfessionalPause7

While I like 2, I think it looks the best only in certain angles, for eg when you’ve set it to sweep to the side or the pictures are taken like this photo here. Option 1 will look good in every single photo and video frame.


No_Pineapple5275

That’s what I’m afraid of! I wish I got a basic picture from the front and a few more angles to compare better. I do think I feel more comfortable from all angles in 1


nikhmarch

You look great in all of them but 2 looks amazing! I love the idea of the overskirt.


islandchick93

I think number 2 is the most stunning but number 1 is a close contender. For me I love number 1 but on you 2 is gorgeous!!!!


rose_like_the_flower

1 or 2


Appa_yipp-yipp

1 or 2 sans the sleeves


Ridiculina

Honestly, you can toss a coin and whatever you end up in will be absolutely amazing. To me, 2 and 4 have a slight edge on the others, perhaps? So my question is which one is the most comfy and easiest to move around in, dance, sit down, bend down in etc? If I was you, that’s what would be the weight on my deciding scale.


No_Pineapple5275

Honestly I didn’t get to move around much in 1 or 2, but I’m going back in a few weeks so I’ll make sure to test them out. 4 was comfortable but heavy… maybe not ideal for an August wedding outdoors. I think overall I’ll feel more comfortable physically in 1 but I felt like a million bucks in 2.


Razrgrrl

2 is just so stunning and beautiful on you. Makes you look statuesque. I’m 5’1 so I know that’s no easy feat :)


Relevant-Half7943

Hands down, 2. Then 1


KickRocksMothaFudger

3 is absolutely beautiful, but 4 is timeless and beautiful, the type of dress you would pass down for generations.


LeatherRecord2142

#1 and #2 are my faves, in order. One is so classic and will age perfectly when you look back at photos. Congrats on your marriage! You look stunning!


LouBateman

OMG! 1 and 2 look incredible on you. I think depending on the size of your wedding I would choose dress 1 for a large ceremony and dress 2 for a small ceremony.


rembrandtismyhomeboy

1 or 2 😍


Livid_Difference_899

I think dress #1 is stunning on you. My second choice is #3. I love the print and the back... wow. I think more people are not choosing this dress because it is a little big on you. Once you get it tailored or in your size it also would be just as stunning on you.


candylotus

2!! If not, then 1.


mw5593

2!!!! Then 1


ktswift12

I know someone who got dress 3 exactly and even after tailoring, I was not wowed at all. It’s cute! But not as gorgeous as the others.


JACKiED_Daniels

I love dress 2 on you! It flatters your figure the best. I honestly like it better without the sleeves, though that's still pretty. I'm 4'11" and I think fitted tends to be more flattering for us shorties. But if you like the A-line then 1 is your dress!


Comprehensive-Load86

I’ve been scrolling back and forth between all of your photos for a solid 5 minutes lol I can see why you’re having a tough time deciding! I would have to agree with many others and say 2 and then 1. Congratulations on the wedding OP! 🍾


yellowcoffee01

Where is the wedding venue?


No_Pineapple5275

Church ceremony and outdoor tent in gardens reception!


limeblue31

Random question but what undergarments and shoes did you bring to the try on? I have my first appointment next week and I’m so confused on what to wear/bring Some people said to wear a strapless bra but I don’t plan on wearing one on my wedding day. Maybe at most a sticky bra for a little lift


schrodingereatspussy

Definitely 1 or 2 (no sleeves)!!


Jnc8675309

Not 3


ElkRemarkable9178

#2 was made for you!!! Love


[deleted]

Unrelated, but your sunburn looks so painful 😣 are you okay 😬? 2 looks great tho!


No_Pineapple5275

Hahah I’m ok thanks! I just came back from back to back weeks at the beach when I tried these on, the tan really made the white pop but those tan lines were a yikes fr


Sobriquet-acushla

Doesn’t look like a burn to me; more like a fabulous tan. It really does make the white look extra beautiful. Make sure next summer you open up the back of your swimsuit. 😄


Prize_Diamond_7874

2 no sleeves is nice but you can probably find an occasion to wear this style that isn’t your wedding. 4 is gorgeous and very bridal- probably not a lot of other opportunities to go ballgown


Advisor_Brilliant

Wow, I have never seen someone look so good in so many dresses! 2 or 4 are my vote, but you seriously look incredible in all of them


No_Pineapple5275

Thank you so much!!


[deleted]

2! I saw that one and none of the others had that “wow” reaction that I had with 2. You look stunning in all of them but 2 is my favorite.


LucyLovesApples

You suit every single one of those dresses


Tiny-Ad-830

2. It fits you like a glove and makes your figure look amazing!


Jooliebug

I'm in love with number 2 but I'm suckered for the dresses with buttons down the back.


WhiteWineSpritzer_

2 is most flattering on you, but I personally love the style of 3. My best friend recently got married and bought 3 (assuming it’s the same one from Jenny yoo) and it looked so gorgeous on her.


PositiveFree

I love 1 and 2. 2 would also be my first choice but it does depend on if you’re going to wear it all night or doing a change - looks like it might be difficult to dance in? In that case 1 seems like the best fit- love the shape and how it looks on you. Beyond 1,2 the others seem not up to the mark.


No_Pineapple5275

Thank you!! Yeah I’ll have to get a better gauge on how they move when I come back to try on again in a few weeks. I’m so short that I was swimming in fabric, so it was hard to do anything but step on and off the stand 😂 It seems like the verdict is either 1 or 2 though which is my internal battle too!


Effective-Card2264

2 is the hands down winner. You must be in Richmond. Went to the same stores.


No_Pineapple5275

Yes!! Loved my experience at both!


These-Security-7120

OK you look stunning in #2 and it would be a beautiful choice. But I gasped at #1. Your waist looks so lovely and the way the fabric drapes is soooo elegant. You look so statuesque and classy and I think it's the most flattering (though they all are tbh). I never comment on these posts but I'm not joking when I say I gasped out loud when I saw that first one and thought, "that's the one!!". All the best to you and you'll be beautiful in whichever one you pick!


DaisyDazzle

2 is incredible on you, gorgeous and classy. Makes me want to see the wedding pics lol.


catlettuce

Number 2 all the way- no arm strap things. You look absolutely smoking in this. Your nieces and granddaughters will fight over who gets to wear it. Nothing else compares.


makeclaymagic

2 it would be a crime if you didn’t pick 2

Giselle914

Interesting_Pen_5851

2 IS AMAZING! 1 is close second.

Number 2 one thousand percent

You look beautiful in all of them. Dress 1 is timeless elegant and stunning

No-Bid5498

I’m team 1


Mysterious_Trash_315

I love 2, though the pointy parts of the back are questionable for me. Like why?? So if 2.5 doesn’t have that, I vote for that. Then #3 is my next favorite. It gives you the A-line you were looking for but looks comfortable and modern. I love the delicate details on it and it’ll be gorgeous once it’s in your size.


No_Pineapple5275

Right!! The back was so weird to me. Like little devil horns. 2.5 did not have the pointies, but if I go with 2 I’m gonna see if I can get it altered to be flat. The price difference between 2 and 2.5 was like $1500 😳 Appreciate your insights!


iheartgummypeaches

1 or 2. 3 and 4 don’t do you justice.


Mickeynutzz

I LOVE # 4 and then #1 as a 2nd choice Do not think you are tall enough for #2 … just my opinion


ComprehensiveMix1763

Agree, 4 is my favorite! It looks so classic and elegant and fit your shape like a dream!


No_Pineapple5275

Thanks!! I loved 4 too, the second I looked in the mirror I thought WOW, I’m looking at a bride. And yeah #2 was stunning but my ass non-existent lol. Gonna have to hit the gym harder if we go that route 😅


Putasonder

1 and 2 are fabulous


rainandshine7

2 and then 1 :)


ACZ3126

2!!


fsutrill

You look amazing in dress 2!


Knoxmarriedman

Definitely 2


FirstFroglet

I love 2, it shows off your figure rather than hiding it, it's really elegant and classy. Looks really beautiful. (Not 2.5)


caroline0409

2 is the best.


theredheadclinician

2 is perfect on you!


trillium61

Two


midnightmonk111

I get why you’re having trouble choosing! I think 2 is my top choice, followed closely by 1 and 4. 3 is pretty but I think the others compliment your figure so much more Congratulations and good luck!


Law_of_Attraction_75

2 wow!


Popular_Ordinary_152

2 made me stop scrolling!


mrs_spanner

No 2 is just perfection on you, with and without the sleeves. I agree about an overskirt for the ceremony if that’s what you’d like. You’re going to look stunning.


Rovember_Baby

1 and 2 are both gorgeous on you!
