Is this one better?

http://www.davidsbridal.com/bridal_gowns_detail.jsp?stid=2637&prodgroup=123

I want this to be very relaxed. But still classy.

These are my bridesmaids dresses in either the blue or the green...what do you think about those too?

Answer 1

I like the second wedding dress the best. I think that the tulle on the first one might be in the way and blowing on a beach.

I like the bridesmaids dresses and I think that your hair will look beautiful with your choices.

Good Luck!!

Answer 2

the second one is better... make sure the bridesmaids dresses are long enough and everyone is comfy in them. I thought about doing that with my hair too.

Answer 3

Don't see much diff between the two, depends how they fit you.

Sorry, don't like the BM dresses.

Maybe this -

Answer 4

A college friend of mine wore the second one at her wedding, it was gorgeous. But I think the first one looks more "beachy." Have you tried them both on? You should choose based on which one makes you feel most awesome.

Answer 5

I think the second one is better but I'm never a fan of a low cut gown for a wedding. Just not classy.

Answer 6

I tried on the second one and it was really comfortable and beautiful.  It will be great for a beach wedding.  There is also one online that I tried on that was very popular for a beach wedding.  It was a strapless lace gown that was very flattering to curvy women.  You should check that one out as well.  here is the link.

I prefer the dresses in blue.  They will look gorgeous on the beach!

Congrats on your wedding and I hope that it is beautiful!

Answer 7

Both are lovely and I like your hair.  I think that the 1st dress is more casual however and better suited to the type of wedding you want.  Have you had a look at the reviews?  There are some beautiful pictures in there to show you what the dress looks like on a real bride.  I definately think that either dress looks stunning on a 'curvier' bride like the brides in the reviews - neither dress does anything for the models wearing them... especially not the first one!

I am not particularly a fan of the bridesmaid dress but if it looks good on your bridesmaids and they are happy with it then that is all that matters.  The colours you've picked are fine - I am just not a fan of the design myself!

Answer 8

i like the first gown much better!!!!

bridesmaid dresses are cute.  think about your theme and see which color will match things better.

or choose the flowers you might want to have...and then see which color goes best!

congrats on your wedding!

all the best :)

Answer 9

I like the second dress better, but both are absolutley gorgeous! I don't like the style of the bridesmaids dresses, bubble dresses really aren't my thing. If it was me, I go with something flowy. But this is your wedding, so if you like them, great!

Answer 10

I like the first gown best. It looks so cool and airy for the beach scene. Thay are both pretty.  I am not feeling the bridesmaid dresses at all. They are fine if they are what you like. Its your day and it should reflect your desires.

Answer 11

I like the 1st dress MUCH better for a beach wedding. It is so soft looking and flowy. The 2nd one looks to shaped and stiff for a relaxed affair. LOVE the hair idea!!! NOT a fan of the bridesmaids dresses though. I like the idea of 'short' - but try to get the neckline similar to the bridal gown you choose. This one looks very 'promy' to me.

What about this bridesmaids dress (I do like the green)

http://www.davidsbridal.com/bridesmaids_...

Looks more 'grown up' and sophisticated, yet still flowy and relaxed.

Answer 12

#2 dress IS REALLY CUTE!

Answer 13

i like the second dress better, it looks, stunning, simple and elegant. I likr the idea for your hair but you're on a beach, is tiara that suitable. I read that fresh flowers are very fashionable, ok they may die but how about fake ones? i think they would complement the relaxed wedding look more, but tiara is fine.

the bridesmaids dresses are lovely, i like them in green

all the best xoxo

Answer 14

Definitely the first one!  They're both nice, but that one's so flowy.. love it for a beach wedding.. and your hair will look awesome.. I'd almost suggest a headband type tiara so your hair will stay back and away from your face.. as i'm sure you know, it gets windy by the beach.

Edit.. I just re-read the tiara part.. perfect!

Answer 15

Both wedding dresses are beautiful, but my favorite is the first one.

I also like your choice for the bridemaids dresses, they're cute!

Answer 16

From me you will always get an honest opinion.  I LOVE the 1st dress.  It is very "flowy" and "beachy".  I was not crazy about the bridesmaids dresses.  I think the beading on that bridesmaid dress would compete with your dress.  They look kind of cheap to me...like something you would buy at a JC Penney.  I would prefer to see a simple A-line, just below the knee length dress made out of taffeta.  Matte satin would be a bit heavy for the beach.  Love the hair....a good choice. Show more dresses to chose from.  Those are my favorite questions.  Best Wishes!

Answer 17

I like the 2nd one more.

Answer 18

i really really really like the first one! i think the second is very beautiful but the first just seems very flowy and romantic. perfect for a beach wedding. the second looks a little more tailored with the ribbon trimming. congrats! and the bridesmaides dresses are very cute too! good luck!

Answer 19

I liked the first better to be honest.  The second is pretty also so you can't go wrong with either.  Try them both on and see what flatters you the most.

Answer 20

I am also getting married on the beach and this is the dress I chose its cheaper than most bridal gowns and is beautiful. http://www.dillards.com/webapp/wcs/store...

it has a train but it already has a button to hook the train on for the reception!

Answer 21

I love the first one. The beading on it looks good with the bridesmaids dresses. Both the blue and green are cute :)

Answer 22

number two is lovely

Answer 23

I def. like them both, the second one more so..........I love halter top dresses!!!

The bridesmaid dresses are cute, but they didn't jump out at me.........but this is your day to shine right not theirs

CONGRATS AND GOOD LUCK!

Answer 24

For the wedding dress, I like the first one, seems to be a bit lighter than the second one.  

the Bridesmaids dresses are cute, in the blue shades i like the pool color better than the cornflower.

Answer 25

I like them both but the 2ND one has a class timeless look I love the bridesmaids dresses I think if it was me I would see if I could order a dress like bridesmaids but long and white I think that would be perfection and most places can do that

Answer 26

I really like the 2nd one.

Answer 27

I loved the second one, it is more simple and Classy.

I also like the bridesmaid dresses, try to get them in a light color so it can look more breezy. The light blue(13th) one is nice..

I don't think you have to make your hair to big with curls etc, there will be a breeze on the beach, and it will get all messed up, maybe you can tie your hair back, sideways or in a ponytail or something and put flowers in it, it will look Classy and beautiful....But that is just my Opinion..

Good luck!!

Answer 28

Ooh I'm stumped sorry I like them both, I really love the pearl detail and back detail on the first dress and the little train is perfect, but i really love the stripe effect on the second one, theyre both perfect for a classy but relaxed feel.  Erm I guess the gathering in the butt area of the first dress will draw attention to your butt, which is good if you have a nice bum but not good if you dont really want to draw attention to it.

The bridesmaid dresses are lovely.

Answer 29

Loved them both but the second one was my favorite!!

Love your bridesmaids dresses, too :)

Answer 30

Love the second brides dress and I am not to thrilled about the style of the bridesmaid dresses.... dont like the top part of the dress in particular..... good luck.

Answer 31

they would both be amazing, but it looks like the 1st one has a longer train. i would avoid a long train for a beach wedding if you are getting married in the sand. a long train will pick up sand as you walk, and it could get really heavy.

i like the bridesmaids dresses!

i have been to several beach weddings, and one thing i have always noticed is the bride's hair. it us usually very windy at the beach, and i have seen brides spend the whole ceremony brushing the hair out of their faces. and saying your vows with hair in your mouth doesn't sound appealing. plus, by the end of the day, your hair is a wind-blown mess. just think about your worst windy-day hair...

you might want to consider putting it up, especially if you go with a halter dress, as an up-do will create a more flattering neck line.

congrats!
