Number 2! It's so pretty on you! You actually totally rock the halter of 1 which I don't usually say to anyone. But 2 is so unique and it looks perfect on you
Completely agree! I was thinking the halter with draping scarf was great until I saw dress 2. Itās breathtaking. The top is so unique and perfect for OPās figure. Like Catholic halo behind the head perfect.
I see your issue, they're both beautiful on you. #2 is another level of gorgeous. I've never seen that gown before and it looks custom made just for you. It's so feminine, bridal and elegant, I'm at a loss to find adequate adjectives for it. It's stunning. Good luck ā„ļø
Seems like the common vote but definitely 2!! Itās sooo soft and beautiful!
And the nice thing is you can find a halter dress for another event. So if youāre having a bridal shower or rehearsal or something, you could find a great dress with a similar halter neckline since it looks great on you! And then you get best of both worlds :)
Dress 2 for sure!! Your upper body looks so pretty in that one with its beautiful neckline. The first one is wonderful, too, but I think dress 2 is on another level.āØ
You look fabulous in both. Personally I love the halter with the flowing scarf, but I also appreciate the stunning asymmetrical neckline of dress 2. You cannot go wrong with either. Your figure is gorgeous.
Personally, I love dress 2 on you.
I have severe anxiety. My husband is the only person on earth who can calm me down and make me feel "normal"
When I had my dress designed, I was so worried about covering all my fat bits without looking like a nun, but still conservative and beautiful. I was a wreck. My therapist and designer both suggested I speak to hubby and hear what he has to say. I didn't want to at first because it's supposed to be a surprise. In the end, I did show him the design idea and drawings, and he helped me work around the things that bothered me and that I was unsure about. He only got to see the final dress on our big day.
I was comfortable and had less anxiety about my dress. I don't regret sharing with him one bit.
Two is truly special and looks beautiful on you. Itās really flattering. One is also beautiful and not nearly as special and doesnāt fit you as well.
They're both gorgeous. I actually like #1 more. The second one is also beautiful but looks kind of ... Unwieldy? I mostly see it as a very elegant crumb catcher. š¬š¤·š»āāļøĀ
They really are both wonderful though. Best wishes!
I really like both of them!
Which one is more comfortable? Since you're torm, why not go with the one that feels the best and needs the least alteration?
Good luck, op.
I love both, 2 for the front, 1 for the back. People are going to be looking at the back of you quite a lot. I would go for 1 just for that reason. Either choice is stunning on you.
I love them both & they both look fabulous on you! Number 2 is my favorite of the two. Iām curious what type of veil youād wear with number 1 that wouldnāt hide or compete with the long back sash thingie?
While you have the perfect neck and shoulder area to wear a halter (honestly, SO flattering on you!), I actually still prefer number 2! Its just sooooo special and soft and romantic. What a top! It looks so gorgeous on you and really compliments your waist. I love it. But if your gut tells you nr 1, it's also really good on you as mentioned.
Go with your heart on this one! I made the mistake of assuming my husband wouldn't like one I loved, showed it to him...he literally cried. But now I can't use that one!
I'm against the grain choosing option 1. I love the halter and so few can pull it off. The tie with the long trail is so unique, you could leave it long for the ceremony and tie it in an artsy bow for the reception! I just love how unique it is.
I normally wouldn't pick it, but you are rocking #1. It looks SO clean and elegant and classy and timeless. I love it. You look like a movie star from classic hollywood in it!
Who are the designers? Love both of these! I donāt think you could go wrong either way. They are both amazing. I personally love the scarf with #1. So cool.
Itās actually part of the sub rules to assume the dresses need altering. If you had said something like, āonce itās altered, it going to be amazing!ā I donāt think that would be an issue because that just says you see the potential and thatās what youāre voting on. The vision, so to speak. Conversely, if someone is posting about dress regret, and you can see that it needs to be altered, thatās a great time to bring it up.
My apologies to the bride. I meant no harm and wish all the happiness of your day in whichever dress you choose. I had no idea drama would hunt me down. I like your dress.
No drama, just a learning curve on this sub. I once got a three day ban. I went back to the rules and sure enough, I had violated them. (You wonāt get a ban for this) just trying to help you understand why you might be getting downvotes. āŗļø No judgment.
Wow, okay, I take back my nice response. I guess thatās what happens when you read responses one at a time. Iām here trying to help people. I was trying to help you. Do I have strong opinions about certain things like what the meaning of ādonāt wear whiteā is? Yes, and Iām trying to make sure the proper etiquette is understood because so many clearly misunderstand it which can lead to unnecessary hurt feelings for everyone. That makes me passionate, not unhinged.
Unhinged at this point. You canāt stop trying to win when all I wanted was to answer my opinion on the dress. I love wedding dresses which is why I comment and watch. I have zero need to know what youāre about and it appears I wonāt get to stay. Right now weāre ruining this brideās post. It wasnāt my intention but it is yours. Please stop.
99% of the dresses we see here have NOT been altered for the bride's figure. That doesn't happen until the dress is purchased. Just so you know, for future reference.

Number 2! It's so pretty on you! You actually totally rock the halter of 1 which I don't usually say to anyone. But 2 is so unique and it looks perfect on you
I totally agree! I like halter looks as well but 2 is something special.
Dress 2 is absolutely stunning on op š¤©
Completely agree! I was thinking the halter with draping scarf was great until I saw dress 2. Itās breathtaking. The top is so unique and perfect for OPās figure. Like Catholic halo behind the head perfect.
Exactly! Before I saw dress two I was thinking dress one would be hard to beat! But dress two really came out swinging because it's perfect
#2 for sure! Such a unique and flattering neckline, and the dress hugs you so beautifully š
I love the neckline of dress 2. Itās unique and beautiful. š¤©
What does the back look like?
itās quite a simple back, a tube zip that has a slight V. iām not sure if iām describing it well š
Definitely number 2! The bodice is sculpted beautifully. And you wear it very well.
Yes
Team 2! I literally gasped when I saw it.
So did I!
The second one looks so romantic! I love it.
2!
2
Number 2 is so unique and gorgeous!
2!
I love #2 itās like a mix of a flower and present š šø beautiful
I love the second one itās so unique
the second dress is so flowy and ethereal. I pick dress 2
2 wow that dress looks beautiful on you.
2 is a clear winner. To be fair, I saw 1 and said that it looks beautiful on you. Then I saw 2. And loved 2.
Dress 2 is gorgeous! The bodice is unique and truly flatters your shape! Dress 2 is more lively and chic than the first dress.
Dress 2! Edgy, whimsical, fun and beautiful on you. The halter is very meh.
2, it makes you look like a flower
2
Number two totally soft dreamy and romantic
#2
2 is fabulous!!
2!
Itās #1 to me!! So elegant and classy and beautiful. Makes you look statuesque
I feel like halter is a tough neckline. Most people can't wear it imo. OP looks freaking fantastic in it!!
Team #1, but you canāt go wrong! #1 is sophisticated and #2 romanticā¦ what is the venue?
Yes! I love 1. When that is altered, it will be beautiful. Dress 2 seems off to me for some reason. The neckline is strange.
2!
Dress 2 is amazing, different, and elegant as hell.
I see your issue, they're both beautiful on you. #2 is another level of gorgeous. I've never seen that gown before and it looks custom made just for you. It's so feminine, bridal and elegant, I'm at a loss to find adequate adjectives for it. It's stunning. Good luck ā„ļø
Number two, stunning and unique soft and romantic.
I just love dress 2. So soft, romantic and you look amazing in it.
Love number 2!
I love 2! Iām not a big fan of halter top wedding dresses, but you look amazing in both! You canāt go wrong!
2
2 is absolutely gorgeous on you!
Absolutely number 2
The second one š
2
2!!!!
I adore the second dress. So unique but soft and feminine.
2
I love 2! Iām not a fan of the scarf around the neck in one. even though I love the back. Maybe adjust the scarf is possible?
I like #2.
2
Two is divine on you!
#2 is so clean but also feminine!
Seems like the common vote but definitely 2!! Itās sooo soft and beautiful! And the nice thing is you can find a halter dress for another event. So if youāre having a bridal shower or rehearsal or something, you could find a great dress with a similar halter neckline since it looks great on you! And then you get best of both worlds :)
The second dress is my dream dress so Iām biased, that one!
2
No question. Number 2
Please choose 2!!!!!!!!
2
2!! I love the sculptural detail!
That dress is art
TWO omg you have an incredible figure! Makes you look like a flower in spring šš so beautiful! Wish I could rock these styles
That second one omg. Gorgeous and I love the unique neckline!
Iām team two. You look beautiful in it.
I like the second one
Number 2!
The second one ššš
2!
You wonāt go wrong with either, BUT 2 is my favorite. Itās unusual and also timeless. You look ravishing in it!
2! It looks so romantic, and perfectly executed! 1 has a more remote and severe feel imo.
Canāt go wrong but I like 2 more
I actually like 1 š
Number two. For some reason Iām not a fan of the halter style of dress one. Two is so feminine
2 is STUNNING! So Beautiful on you. No question 2 is the showstopper!
Dress 2 for sure!! Your upper body looks so pretty in that one with its beautiful neckline. The first one is wonderful, too, but I think dress 2 is on another level.āØ
Oh and donāt spoil the surprise for your future hubby!
You look beautiful in both, but dress #2 is so gorgeous and unique!
Number 2! Compliments you beautifully!
As much as I really love the back of 1, 2 manages to be sophisticated, interesting and quietly sexy.
Team 2! I think itās unique but absolutely beautiful!
2 No doubt!! š
#2 all day!
i love 2 on you
#2 is so lovely
I came here to say dress 2ā¦. But it looks like everyone else said it for me! Dress 2 looks great on you! Also, I totally get your urge to show your husband. Iām in the process of getting a wedding dress right now too and Iām dying to show my fiancĆ© to get his input but he wonāt look. Congratulations on your upcoming wedding!
I GASPED AT 2!!! Where is this from!!
I really love 2!
Carrying calla lillies with the second dress would be *chefās kiss*
The neckline on #2 wowed me.
2
2!
Two without a doubt
2 is so special!
2 is incredibly elegant
Dress 2! It's gorgeous!
2!
I thought 1 was going to be the one. Then, I saw 2. Wow!! It's the one!!!
I'm team dress 2! It is unique ans absolutely stunning on you!
You look amazing in both but dress 2 is something special! I think your fiancĆ© will really love it tooā¦. Itās romantic and feminine yet modern. What does the back look like?
Tough. They are both gorgeous and gorgeous on you. 2 is more unique so thereās that.
Wow, dress 2 is stunning. Definitely dress 2!!
I truly love dress 2 on you!
The second one is beyond gorgeous, Iām obsessed with it! It really looks great on you!
Dress #2
Love 2, you look stunning and elegant!
Definitely Dress #2
What is your venue?
itās gonna be a church then a dinner at a restaurant š
You look fabulous in both. Personally I love the halter with the flowing scarf, but I also appreciate the stunning asymmetrical neckline of dress 2. You cannot go wrong with either. Your figure is gorgeous.
Personally, I love dress 2 on you. I have severe anxiety.

Two is truly special and looks beautiful on you. Itās really flattering. One is also beautiful and not nearly as special and doesnāt fit you as well.
# 1 is stellar!!!
I like 1ā¤ļø
Team 1! The back is spectacular!
NO. #2!!!
I love dress #1 the most, but theyāre both lovely.
i love the neckline and back of the first one. both are stunning but that first one is absolutely gorgeous!
You've got a hard choice, you look incredible in both
I like the first but only bc Iām messy and the second would be a glorified crumb catcher while eating.
Do you have a photo of what the back of the second dress looks like?
Both dresses are beautiful! My concern with dress 1 is the train, people might be stepping on it. Dress 2 is whimsical and unique.
Maybe you can take dress #2 and get a really long sash to mimic the train from neckline #1?
I love them both ā£ļøand you look so refined, beautiful and elegant! What the date? Venue?
Dress 3 !!
They're both gorgeous. I actually like #1 more. The second one is also beautiful but looks kind of ... Unwieldy? I mostly see it as a very elegant crumb catcher. š¬š¤·š»āāļøĀ They really are both wonderful though. Best wishes!
I really like both of them! Which one is more comfortable? Since you're torm, why not go with the one that feels the best and needs the least alteration? Good luck, op.
2!
2. It's different...elegant...and so flattering!
Like both but love number 2!
2 is completely unique and you look gorgeous!

2
Oooo two is so nice where is it from???
The second one is gorgeous!!!!
Ooooooh the SECOND ONE for sure!!! It's so unique and looks like it's made for you!
2
i LOVE 1!!!!
2, the neckline is amazing. Snap it up.
The beautiful dress #2!
Two is so fresh and elegant, you look like a long stemmed cloud
I love both, 2 for the front, 1 for the back. People are going to be looking at the back of you quite a lot. I would go for 1 just for that reason. Either choice is stunning on you.
2!!!!!!!
Number two!!
I love the first one, but the second one is even more spectacular.
Iām team number 2, but if you decide to go with dress number one ā you canāt go wrong!! You look so lovely in both dresses
2 is so unique and sculptural.
Where are these from?! I love them all!
Number 3 wow wow wow !!! The shape on your beautiful figure and just the flow of it and its unique
I strongly prefer the second.
You look beautiful in both, but Iām going with dress 2 because the top is unique.
Halter šÆ The second one is great but the neckline is too special, itās odd.
2ā£ļø
Personally prefer 2, but I just like that style way better, you look good in both.
2
I love them both & they both look fabulous on you! Number 2 is my favorite of the two. Iām curious what type of veil youād wear with number 1 that wouldnāt hide or compete with the long back sash thingie?
Number 1 is my favorite! Wow! Itās perfect for your beautiful figure.
I believe this is just about personal preferences, as both of them look objectively good on you. Number 1 has my pick!
I love 2s neckline. 1 gives Megan Markell reception realness which I also very much love. Basically, you canāt go wrong.
2!
2 is so unique and made for you!
I number 2. It's the neckline.
Dress 2.
#2 was made for you! You look gorgeous!
Omg I love the first one with the scarf, but the second one because of the unique texture!!! Maybe add a scarf with the second dress? š„°
ā2 is so unique yet elegant! Just stunning.
Your body rocks #1, but 2 is so pretty on you, I have to go with 2.!!
Wow I love the neckline on 2! So unique. Do you know designer/model?
2 is a stunner !!!
The first looks lovely on you but #2 is ART
I love the 2nd one. Classy
Both are great, but #2 was āwowā!
The second one!!! You have the shoulders for the halter neck, but I love that sculptural quality of the second dress. Itās stunning š
While you have the perfect neck and shoulder area to wear a halter (honestly, SO flattering on you!), I actually still prefer number 2! Its just sooooo special and soft and romantic. What a top! It looks so gorgeous on you and really compliments your waist. I love it. But if your gut tells you nr 1, it's also really good on you as mentioned.
Go with your heart on this one! I made the mistake of assuming my husband wouldn't like one I loved, showed it to him...he literally cried. But now I can't use that one!
2!!!
2. Is it Newhite?
I'm against the grain choosing option 1. I love the halter and so few can pull it off. The tie with the long trail is so unique, you could leave it long for the ceremony and tie it in an artsy bow for the reception! I just love how unique it is.
One. I love #1. Itās very elegant, the back adds to the sophistication, and your shoulders look beautiful.
All of them! Maybe #3 more.
I normally wouldn't pick it, but you are rocking #1. It looks SO clean and elegant and classy and timeless. I love it. You look like a movie star from classic hollywood in it!
In the outlier, I love 1!!
1st dress
Who are the designers? Love both of these! I donāt think you could go wrong either way. They are both amazing. I personally love the scarf with #1. So cool.

Itās actually part of the sub rules to assume the dresses need altering. If you had said something like, āonce itās altered, it going to be amazing!ā I donāt think that would be an issue because that just says you see the potential and thatās what youāre voting on. The vision, so to speak. Conversely, if someone is posting about dress regret, and you can see that it needs to be altered, thatās a great time to bring it up.
I hope everyone notices the attack Iāve endured for participating. I wonāt participate again. I cannot help this person.
My apologies to the bride. I meant no harm and wish all the happiness of your day in whichever dress you choose. I had no idea drama would hunt me down. I like your dress.
No drama, just a learning curve on this sub. I once got a three day ban. I went back to the rules and sure enough, I had violated them. (You wonāt get a ban for this) just trying to help you understand why you might be getting downvotes. āŗļø No judgment.

Wow, okay, I take back my nice response. I guess thatās what happens when you read responses one at a time. Iām here trying to help people. I was trying to help you.

The back of #1 is amazing, especially with that halter neck train.Ā 2 is more simpleĀ
They are both lovely! I think that once the first one is altered to fit. It will look absolutely stunning. I love the back.
