Please help me decide which (budget) wedding dress, photos attached.

[SweetMarmalade]

Totally different but liking elements of them both but which one?

My Mum initially loved the first, then loved the second, tried first on again and that’s when she preferred the second.

Argh!

Yes I agree just flowers
It's an amazing dress (writes down ideas )

It was going to be the first until I spotted the second for a bargain price, thought I’d try and and do like it.

1st one would be better if altered to fit around waist

2nd sorry is awful, looks really cheap and dated

The first one is lovely! Looking at the photos on monsoon website, I think it's meant to be more a-line, I would adjust it to be more fitted at the waist and add a petticoat/a layer of tulle to make the skirt fuller. Depends if you like that shape of course x

The second one was originally what I had in mind, wanted a it bit more boho. Think it looks better in real life.

second one looks like a 'dynasty' nightie. sorry.
first one with alterations.

LOVE the second one

Second one. Love it. I don't see it as dated at all. Agree with timeless.

First one looks to much like a prom dress to me.

Those who do like dress 2, would you wear a necklace?

And I know of a good seamstress, quite a few in our area so I’m hopeful either could be adjusted easily. Think dress 2 needs ‘hoiking’ up a bit.

1 but get it taken in round yet middle. You've got a lovely figure OP and you don't need to cover up your arms at all!

1st one when it fits properly

No necklace- it'll cut you in two

I don't like either of them. Sorry.

Actually I've changed my mind. I actually love the second one now I've seen it from then other angle (I hadn't RTFT before).

2nd

Really don’t like second one at all. Surprised so many people do! Shows how different we all are and just proves that you should go with whatever you like!

First one, love the sparkles.

First one is a bit tacky.

Love the second one.

I prefer the first one but both would need taking in, both are far too big for you.

They both look lovely on you.
If you’re going for‘boho’ then the second one definitely.
I like it a lot

I have looked at the Monsoon website and the material of the second one looks lovely. I would go for that one.

Another angle of the boho one
