#1is so flattering on you

ITA!!!

I love both of them...it looks like #1 the sample is closer to your actual size which makes it look wonderful on you- while the 2nd one looks big on you...which i think is altering my decision.

While the 2nd one is similar to mine- mine did have way less rouching on the bodice/ top and what rouching it did have was done on an angle- also there were only 3 teirs in the back- not as mayny pickups. (something to think about)- you may want to go try on the Jim Hjelm

they both look soo good on you!!!

i love the bottoms on the first dress

The second one is actually similar to kfizz jim hjelm dress not quite the same one but I fell in loveee with hers... and the first is a Marisa ( only carried at Bridal Reflections) with and added belt.

I will def take some time to think about it , such an important decision !!

Marisa is NOT exclusive to Bridal Reflections. You could definitely shop around for that dress.

You look great in both, but I think you should try them both on again before you make a decision. Sometimes looking at just two (without the distraction of other dresses, on a fresh head) can really help.

---

Where else do you know of that they sell Marisa dresses? Just curious maybe I can get a better price

Sorry I didn't get back to this sooner. The website also lists the following:
Bridal Suite of Centereach
Bridal Elegance
Adrienne's
Bridal Salon of Manhasset
Kleinfelds
RK Bridal
Paradise Bridal
and some others that seem to be upstate (by which I mean anything north of the Bronx!)

The site is old, so I would call and double check the store still carries them but I know I saw some at Bridal Elegance and Bridal Salon of Manhasset. Love Marisa gowns!

first dress!
