Both similarish in styles.

Dress 1 i141.photobucket.com/albums/r75/choceyes/TSdress1_zpsec67b468.png

Dress 2 i141.photobucket.com/albums/r75/choceyes/untitled_zpsf858db28.png

I know that dress 2 is probably more weddingy, but I think dress 1 will suit me better. Dress 1 is available in a petite size and I'm 5'2. Dress 2 might be two low cut at the front for me too and my bra might show up. I've not had much luck finding a plunge bra for my size of 28F.
Also I'm thinking that dress 1 might be easier to accessorise, with nude/cream heals, cream clutch bag and head piece.

I'm buying either new on Ebay, so can't try out before buying.

Help!!

First one looks great to me, with lots of potential for nice accessories.

ifancyashandy - funny you should mention Kate Middleton, as she wore the black and white version of this dress to a wedding! It was mid thigh on her if I remember right.

My DD has dress 1 and I think it'll be lovely for a relaxed wedding.

yes that's what I was thinking Hadmeathello. Knowing the couple and the venue, it should be fine.

Any suggestions for accessories?

Both are fine for a wedding as they won't be very short on you.

I'd go for the first one as you can dress it up or down and get a lot of use from it.

Dress 2 would be too evening wear for a lot of things. Also if it's too low it's a non starter. Sadly if you are 5'2" people do tend to look straight down your clevage. (I used to have to discipline, my now, DH frequently for non to discreet flat mate admiration.)
