Please help me choose a dress!!

I am going to a wedding in Florida in January of 2009. I know it is months and months away but I want to start looking for a dress because I don't want to have to think about finding something while I am worrying about all my wedding stuff. I just want to have it taken care of as soon as possible. But I am having trouble deciding which one of these 5 dresses I like best. Please help! Thanks so much ladies! :)

Dress 1

Dress 2

Dress 3

Dress4

Dress 5

How is the weather in Fl in Jan?

Is it a formal wedding or afternoon? I like No. 4 and 5

I voted for dress #4. I also like dress #2, but I think it's less formal.

I have no clue about the weather there during January. I was talking to the bride about it a few weeks ago and she said it was 80 degrees during the same weekend this past January which she said is rare, so it is anyone's guess. The wedding is @ 6pm, but I am pretty sure it won't be too formal, it's just not their style-they are more casual and laid back.

I know that Florida can get VERY chilly in January. Went 3 years ago during January and it didn't get out of the 60's during the day and at night it was in the low 40's. Just thought I'd let you know. Like 5 best.

Check Internet weather sites for the past few years to see what the weather was like.

Also, the weather may be different for north FL vs. south FL.

In general, I would avoid any of the dresses with black in it. Black at weddings may not be as widely accepted at weddings in other areas of the country as it is at evening weddings in NY. You would do well to go with #1 or #2 to be on the safe side, and bring a shawl in case it gets chilly or the AC is strong.

Good luck!

I like 3 or 4 for an evening wedding or more formal wedding and 2 if its in the daytime or less formal.

I was in Florida in April and it was still chilly light jacket weather then. I voted for # 5 but you might want to get a nice wrap to go with it to keep warm!
