    Personally I prefer number one. The fit is better and I think it would be easier to move around in. The bottom gives enough "oomph" without making it look like huge....but I guess it depends what sort of effect you want. I've never been a fan of massive skirts like in nmber 2 or 3 but it depends what you like Smiley smile

    I luurrve NO;1!!!! NO;3 is a close 2nd sorry but i really dont like NO;2 which is rather odd as its quite similar to mine!!!!

    and i think 1 or 3 would suite the style of your venue quite nicely which is absolutely stunning BTW!!! x

    No.1 for me ?

    How did you feel wearing them? Or how do you feel thinking about them?

    For me, I liked quite a few dresses and 1 was very much in the lead until I tried mine on. It wasn't so much that I got struck by a lightening bolt or what-have-you, it was more a feeling I got and when the woman asked me if I wanted to take the dress off, without hesitation, I said NO! ?

    I LIKE no 2 the best (but I might just be thinking about it from a 'which would I wear' POV) but I think that No 3 is also gorgeous and v v impressive! I love the length of the train. So I like no 3 best on you.

    (But you look beautiful in all 3 of them whichever you choose!)

    Thank you for all your comments - they have been quite helpful as well as suprising!

    The 1st dress is the one that I was trying on for the 2nd time. Because this is the dress that I had been thinking about for a couple of weeks, this was the one that I guess felt more special to me. I even felt quite protective over it when another girl was looking at it in the shop!!

    Its interesting that only one person prefers number 2 - as this is the dress that I seem to think about the most at the moment! It is very princessey and for anyone that knows me, this is the type of dress you would expect. At first I didnt think it was very flattering to my shape but when the lady pulled it in, it really showed my waist. I do think this dress and number 3 could possibly drive me crazy throughout the night as they are so big. The hoop underneath the dress is called the "jordan" in the shop!!

    Oh decisions decisions!! I thought I had it figured......!

    Number 1 by a MILE! Sorry but I think number 2 does you no favours, honestly I dont think it does anyone any favours really but thats just my opinion. I also like number 3 but not as much as number 1 x

    Wow, what a decision as they are all lovely dresses.

    I was really torn between 1 and 3, I agree that they look the fabulous on. I finally settled on 3 and also think it really suits the style of that beautiful venue.

    You look gorgeous in all of them!!

    My fave is No 1. I prefer the shape of this, as don't really like big skirts, and think this really shows your figure off.

    Number 3 for me, really shows off your figure. You look beautiful in all 3 though so whichever you choose you'll look amazing!

    I absolutely LOVE dress number 1, what make is it if you dont mind me asking?

    number 2 is lovely but not as classy as number 1

    I dont like number 3 really as i dont like it when the skirts are like that (they remind me of a duvet! )

    Good luck choosing, what ever one you pick you will look lovely x

    Number one is Ronald Joyce. Dresses two and three are the same designer - Ellis.

    I have no idea how I am going to make my mind up but all your views are very interesting!! Like I say I was going toward number 2 slightly (it looks a lot better in person than in the pic) but now I'm really not too sure!! Number 2 is also the most expensive...by about £400! so also worth thinking about.

    So confusing....

    Number 2 is gorgeous as well, very princessy. Wait and try them on again with your BM's and see you feel. I have changed my mind sooo many times lol. I finally ordered a dress and its here and im not 100% sure so i have ordered another one! Smiley smile x

    Does anyone have a photo of Nicola Maclean's (the WAG) dress? I just had a horrible thought - my fiance said that he hopes my dress doesnt look anything like that - I'm thinking it might be like number 2!!!!!???

    Im sure when you are walking down the aisle he will be thinking how lucky he is, not comparing your dress to a WAG! Smiley smile

    No 3 is similar to many styles at the moment - a bit too samey for my liking, no 2 just screams Jordan at me and no 1...... well, number 1 is an unusual, eye catching design so thats the one that gets my vote.

    For me it is number 1 as well, i think it looks gorgeous on you and is bridal but at the same time a little bit different. Have you thought about your theme and which one would fit in with that the best, just a different way of trying to work out which one to go for. Good luck deciding

    They all so great on you so no wonder your finding it hard! I would say number 2, It's so princess and I think your smiling more in that picture too, you sure would make an entrance in any of them but number 2 I feel will get people talking and make you unforgetable.
