It is very pretty, and different than the other. Both are lovely, I think it just depends on you!

why can´t we dress in wedding dresses on a daily regular basis

Never worn one in my life - just not for me.

Having said that, Kalei, the dress you showed us was stunning! My colleague funded her whole wedding via Ebay - dress material, shoes, tiaras and who knows what else and she looked fabulous just like you will

Thanks so much Thank you for all your opinions. Sigh...it's still so hard to choose between them...since its ebay and they are cheaper, I am almost thinking when I have enough money in later months of buying both of them lol...then I could try them on and see which one I like best.. and the one I dont wear I could sell.

Just tuning into this thread. The first dress is beautiful. The second dress is very elegant and I think I like it better. It will be much easier to navigate around in the second dress. I know it is just for one day but it will make your day a little easier. I also love that one-year anniversary ring he gave you. how sweet!

Both dresses are awesome but that first one is the prettiest wedding dress I have EVER seen! That first one a simple STUNNING!

Your husband to be is SO adroeable, just as cute as can be! What a CUTE! CUTE! CUTE! guy he is!! Oh, sorry, you are pretty too!

I know you'll look stunning in either one!!!

I have to agree with another Pter this is the most beautiful wedding dress i have ever seen and you obviously have the lovely figure to carry it off, you will look absolutely stunning, fantastic choice.

oops i had not seen the other dress when i first posted my reply, i have to say either of them are just gorgeous, and i think it depends what look you are going for ,i think i actually prefer the second one now,but both are stunning as you will be on the day.

Also i don't think it matters what you spend on a dress, as long as you are happy with your choice.

Yeah, I like dress No.2 also....it's very elegant.
Simplicity is always a bit hit with me.

Well you are Australian

Out of the 2 I think I prefer dress 2 but really its down to which one makes the bride feel fantastic (apparently )

[Kalei]

Aw, thanks so much everyone! You're all so sweet...and thanks Laura's Babies for thinking my fiance is so cute lol :P He is pretty nice...most days :P lol

We managed to find our Flower Girl's dress yesterday too, a light pink one and it was only 40 dollars!

I think I will post a picture of it soon.

I love the 2nd dress. Stunning!

[Karen]

I think the first dress is more "now" and the second is more "classic" - so it's really up to you!

[Marigold2]

The first dress is one of the prettiest I have ever seen. It is a princess dress.
The second dress is not as special, kind of pain next to the first one. But that is me.
Close you eyes and dream, which one are you wearing?

Well you are Australian

Of course....you really don't think I'd be much of a pom do you ????

Hey everyone,

My parents have offered us something different now. To make a long story short, it is very very VERY difficult living with my fiance's parents and it is a struggle almost every day for me. I have cried many times for almost a year now because it is so stressful on me.

So anyways, my parents said that instead of having a fancy reception (they booked it at the Days Inn and it will cost about 2500 dollars) we could have our wedding way earlier (like in the summer) and have it cheaper...like have a potluck. And they will give us the 3000 dollars to go to our future apartment. 3000 dollars is like 4 months rent So basically we would be able to be moved out on our own in July, instead of October.

We are having a really hard time deciding what we want to do. In many ways we still want to have our wedding in October like planned with the really nice reception, but in some ways (like another stressful incident that happened tonight with me) we really want to get out as soon as possible.

I don't know what to do, it is such a hard decision! Sigh....

lol...why does life have to be so hard with so many decisions? lol

You could always have a big party on your first anniversary.
