First pewter KM one as I think it could look amazing with some coloured accessories like a bright yellow clutch. Love the MJ one too but don't think it is formal enough for your glitz/glam affair.

I haven't looked at any of the others but what about a classic Diane von Furstenburg wrap dress? I got one with a fabulous graphic print for my sister's wedding and it's my 'go-to' dress for weddings.

Mine was £250 as well.

Have to say, I love the Karen Millen teal one too.
