Wedding Gown CONFUSION--help!

So, about a month ago I started my dress shopping and instantly fell in love with a dress (3rd one I put on). I thought it was the one and tried on about 15-20 more just to make sure and couldn't compare to the feeling. The dress is very sweet, a little vintage. I was surprised I liked it so much because I'm a bit on the sassy side and envisioned my dress to be a bit more glamour/sexy, lol.

Fast forward--I started 2nd guessing my dress. Every time I looked at it online I thought, it's beautiful, but too plain for me. There has to be another dress out there. So, yesterday I go on the hunt again to compare dresses. And, I fall in love again--with a different dress!! It is gorgeous, but totally different from the 1st. It is tight and sexy and blingy (still elegant though) and I felt so confident in it. I felt like ME.

Problem is, I am wondering if it is too sexy. I don't want to walk down the aisle and have my FH's family thinking I'm trashy. The top is that see-thoughis material. Picture attached. What do you think???

Oh, the other dress is maggie sottero rihanna royal

Thank you!

Both dresses are gorgeous. Personally I like the second one better it doesn't seem trashy at all and you look gorgeous in it!

I'm partial to Maggie since that's who did my dress, but I really like the 'sexy' dress better. If it's more 'you' then go for it! I don't think it's too sexy at all, it is really pretty!

Oh wow, both dresses are really gorgeous. It's really all about you and what you and FH love. You only get this day once. From far away, that second dress does not look trashy at all. If you're more comfortable in the second dress, then by all means, pick the second dress.

I think the second dress is sexy but elegant. I dont think its trashy at all. Did you buy the first dress already?

Thank you! You guys are the best! No, I have been postponing buying the first dress because of my hesitation--maybe that's a sign?

I think it is a sign! I tried on a ton of dresses that I 'really liked,' but it wasn't what I wanted, when I tried on MY dress - it was better than what I originally pictured!

Definitely go with what YOU will feel confident and comfortable in on your wedding day!!!! Don't worry about what any one else will think. I think both dresses are really pretty though!

Both dresses are GORGEOUS, but they are very different. I like the picture of the one of you in the dress. You look comfortable and stunning
