Help girls..WHICH GOWN?? <<UPDATED w/Decision>>

I went to the Maggie trunk show today at Helen's and left a deposit, although I didn't decide on which dress. haha. I was set on the Jenna since I tried it on back in February, and then today I met the Rosabel. I love both, and they're the same price. When I put on the Rosabel my mom teared up and said it 'gave her a feeling' (lol) which is a lot for my mom, since she hasn't cried yet and I've tried on about 50 dresses. Rosabel gave me that wedding feeling as well and made me tear up as well, as thinking about the Jenna makes me very happy. Anyway, have to call Helen's tomorrow and give them a decision. So I turn to you wonderful ladies of LIW...which dress????

As a sidenote, Helen's was wonderful. I worked with Lolita (I believe) and she was great. I loved her, she was so patient and helpful. And gave me a wonderful price, better than the trunk show discount!!!

ahhhh, this is really tough! Normally I would say #1 hands down since I love the ruffled bottoms but I dunno, you look so radiant and beautiful in #2 and the fact that your mom cried...I have to say I like #2 better on you.

IMO Jenna is a sexier look but Rosabel is more traditional bride. I voted for Rosabel.

they are both very beautiful dresses, but I really love the way #2 looks on you so that's what I voted for

It's a tough choice they are both beautiful, and you look gorgeous in both. If you got 'the feeling' in rosabel though I would go with it. To get 'the feeling' is very rare

It also depends on what kind of vibe you are going for. Jenna, is STUNNING and sexy also very modern. Rosabel is more 'bridal' in my opinion. It's more what you think of when you hear the word bride bc it's a ball gown and princess-y....I would think of the kind of vibe you want your wedding to have and let that lead you to which dress.

Re: Help girls..WHICH GOWN??

i don't know if this will help you make your decision or not, but here goes...

Jenna is a beautiful dress, but I know about, all joking aside, 7 brides, not including LIW brides, who have purchased this dress. I think that is why it has lost some of its magic for me. again, it a gorgeous dress! and it looks beautiful on you! i think its a more modern dress and has a lot of pizzazz

the Rosabel dress is more traditional, while still being head over heels beautiful. I really like the beading on the front and how the waist is a bit lower which really adds oomph to the dress.

I would go with the Rosabel

Re: Help girls..WHICH GOWN??

Re: Help girls..WHICH GOWN??

You girls are amazing with your advice..thank you so much!!! I thought I'd wake up and know which one I wanted, but that didn't happen lol... I do think the problem is I don't know which way I wanna go, modern or traditional. And yes the Jenna seems to be a VERY popular dress among the 2011 girls...DO you think the seamstress would be able to add tulle or something under the bottom of the Rosabel to make it more puffy??
