Which dress?
I'm deciding between two dresses--pix in album--and would love to get some feedback. Thanks in advance for your advice and patience!

One of the dresses is A-line, the other fitted. I'm 5'4', small framed, not curvy (small bust and narrow hips). The wedding is at Crest Hollow, with the ceremony in the late afternoon and an evening reception.
The big questions: Do I go with the Anjolique, or the Bonny? If the Bonny, then what changes should be made, if any?
BONNY 519: PLAIN
See photos 1, 2, 3, 4. I’d wear it without the sash. Strapless gown with a small A-line skirt and chapel train. Tulle overlay has beaded metallic lace through the torso and hem. Fabric is satin tulle. Unfortunately the photo didn’t turn out quite as well. I have a smiley face over my actual face because my expression is bizarre (it’s NOT a reflection of how I feel about the dress).
BONNY 519: WITH EXTRA LACE
Currently, there is nothing at the border of the neckline, and there are currently four lace appliques on the back of the dress. The current appliques are inside of the light blue circles.
If I get this dress, I would order extra yards of the same lace at the hem and put it at the neckline. This is marked in the photo by the small upside-down triangles. See photo 5.
I can also order extra appliques and have them sewn onto the skirt. These are marked by the large blue triangles.
Should I only order enough appliques to go on the sides and back? See photos 6 and 7.
Or should I order enough to go in the front as well? See photos 6 and 8.
ANJOLIQUE 708
Strapless gown with tulle and lace over satin. Chapel length train. Embroidered with floral lace appliques. Modified A-line/mermaid skirt. Pic of me at the bottom. See photos 9, 10, 11, 12.
