I like number 2

#1!!

awww u look so pretty in dah 1st dress

Dress Two is more appropriate for a beach wedding, but I would even consider picking something even more “beachy” that won’t drag on the sand.

definetely No1

No question, number 1.

Is there any chance the groom would wear a tux?

He in a tux would go great with you in this gown!!!

the one on the right is more appropriate, but I am not really crazy about it. I like the idea of the small veil or also a small floral wreath with your long hair flowing. Nice look. Bouquet, not too fussy and should be tropical type flowers of Hawaii. Try dessy.com. They have stunning destination semi formal wedding gowns that are awesome. Youthful, modern and just gorgeous. Have you tried destination wedding gowns on the wedding gown sites like gownfind.com? Also dillards.com, and jessicamcclintock.com. Get a cream colored unlined unstructured linen jacket for your fiance. It will look nicer in the photos I assure you. Then he can remove the jacket later. My advice to you is you have time, and to look further.

if i would pic i would go with #2 i just got married 2 weeks ago and my dress kinda looked like that one!!

I lived in Hawaii for several years. Managed to get invited to 2 weddings. The thought of your husband and best man wearing kah-combat fatuiges is totally embarrassing for a marriage. Move the wedding to Kentucky and then after the hoe down everyone can go coon hunting.
While our boys are in the middle east. The only combat clothing that is worn is at war. Not at a wedding…

If these 2 are your only options…

Dress 1…it’s more elegant and fit for a wedding. The 2nd one seems short.

If you have other options…

The only thing about the 1st is the sand might get stuck on the trail. You also might want to look for a dress that’s not all lace because lace does not go with beach weddings as well as the groom’s attire. The lace effect is too heavy and formal for a groom who’s wearing white shirt and kakhi pants. You wouldn’t want to upstage your groom, do you?

I suggest a biased tube dress using chiffon with beadwork around the bust area to make it more elegant. You can add a trail coming from the back so that the it dances with the breeze.

Dress #2 seems much more appropriate for a tropical beach wedding, especially with your groom in more casual attire. Dress #1 is lovely on you also, but seems much more formal, and seems to have a more substantial train which wouldn’t be fun to drag through the sand, nice for a church wedding if hubby was in a tux, but for Hawaii I would advise dress #2.

Congratulations on your upcoming marriage!!!

I think they’re BOTH beautiful. But I’d go with # 1. Perfect, especially for a beach wedding. Good luck, let us know which one you choose!

Lace and sand dont mix…. if you are having the wedding on a grassy peak overlooking the ocean…then i would go with #1. Just remember…they make glass out of sand. It will tear the lace apart.

I think #2 would deffinately be more fitting for a beach. (More comfortable too).
Best of luck!

So you have narrowed it down to two since yesterday…. I am still not crazy about that second dress, but it is the right style for Hawaii… and the first dress is gorgeous but might be too much for a casual Hawaii wedding. I’d really suggest finding something similar to that second dress… I just don’t think it’s all that flattering. It looks more like a nightie and still reminds me of the layered skirts that we wore in the 80’s. If that’s the Alfred Angelo one, they have some better designs in that Destinations line. I think they even have one or two that have that same type of look as your first one

dress 1 is really really pretty..i vote for that one…i usually dont like strapless wedding dresses but that one is really nice and fits you very well..it complamints your body…and with the veil it is you!!!!

I think that dress # 1 looks the best on you. It shows you in a more flattering aspect and lets your natural beauty shine through. My wife and I wish you many long years of happiness together !!!!

I am voting for dress number 2 for many of the same reasons other people have answered. Dress two is appropriate for a more casual setting. I think the spaghetti straps are **** and I think the tiers are more casual and appropriate for the other details you provided (like that your fiance is wearing khakis) and the simple bouquet and just all of it. Dress number 2 gets my vote by far as the winner given the other elements you provided. And if that is you wearing dress number two then you are a simply radiant bride. Congratulations and Best Wishes for the future.

was that the whole option? i mean, dress #1 is soooo beautiful but i don’t thik either of them is suited for a beach wedding…. i was thinking shorther dress (like summer dress) and no train.

I like Dress 1 but it seems a little bit too fancy for the type of wedding you are having, Dress 2, I really don’t like the layered look with all of that lace.
