SWR: Help me pick a dress for a wedding!

Alright ladies, my tubby butt needs a new dress for soontobemrsvpt's wedding! i have found two that i like on Nordstrom's site and they are very similiar....so i'm having a hard time! one is a little more expensive than the other, so that is making me lean towards it....but i need opinions!

Re: SWR: Help me pick a dress for a wedding!

I looove them both But i think #2 is a bit more elegant... The ruffles going down on #1 seem a bit prom-ish??? JMO!

I vote for #2 - I agree that #1 is a bit promish

What about this one?

that one is hot..BUT i try and stay away from charmeuse (which is what the waistband is made of)...cause it stretches in the wrong places on me. lol i have a big tummy unfortunately.

That swishy fabric (while gorgeous) I find terribly difficult to wear!!!! It always makes me look puffier than I already am. fluffy sleaves = fluffier arms etc.....

What about a dress that is a bit more structured?
