Ok...Which dress!?! I know everyone has their own preference but I'm so torn...and I know they are kinda different. I think I may be more torn because I think FH prefers the more sleek look (not puffed our or no pick ups)
I'd have pics of me in them, but the places don't let me take pics til I buy them

Oh whoops....for some reason it's not working...but heres the link
I think it depends on the vibe you are going for on your wedding! Do you want classic yet modern sophistication? Then go with the fuller gown. Do you want softer, goddess-like romance? Then go with the flowy gown. I realized that the gown you pick ends up helping set the mood for the wedding, so decide what you want to feel like and what you want the mood of the wedding to be and go from there!!!
If you want a strictly personal opinion, I like the fuller one.
If you don't mind to copy and paste, that is the link lol I'm computer illiterate at the moment
Ooooh I love both, but I really love this one. ...very elegant!

The dresses you have chosen are two different looks - both are beautiful!
Personally, I love the Maggie! But if you are still torn, take a break and then go back and try them on again and see how you feel in each dress.

This, exactly!! Love that fuller gown, and I am not usually a fan of pick-ups at all. It's very classy and dreamy.

I know they are soooooo different and I just don't know what to do...
A lot of my friends are suggesting the fuller Monique one because we are having a Saturday night time wedding (and my MOH says my face lit up when I put it on...idk about that but I trust her hahahaha).
But then I feel like FH doesn't like the full look but everyone's like...he'll love you in anything. Can't I just buy both??!?

Since you're having a Sat night wedding, I think I would go with the fuller gown. They are both beautiful. I'm not usually a fan of pick ups, but this one is really pretty.

I am going to guess there's a significant price difference between the Monique and the Maggie. I think my bff tried on that Monique (or a very similar gown) at Bridal Salon of Manhasset, and it was $$$$.
Did you get prices yet? Also, even if price isnt an issue, do you know what 'feel' you are seeking?

I wouldn't go so much based on what your FH thinks he likes or doesn't. Boys are dumb when it comes to fashion. If you asked my DH what I wore to our wedding he'd say 'white'. That being said, I think you should still shop around. Obviously neither of these dresses has grabbed you in a 'I-must-have-it' way so I'm thinking the one might still be out there somewhere! JMO!

i like the one that is posted in the picture in the first post but I really think it depends on the look you are going for and how they look on you.

The Monique is from her Bliss line, so it's reasonably priced. I never imagined what I'd look like on my wedding day, nor have I EVER been interested in wedding stuff until I got engaged, so I feel like I just don't know what I want. I do agree with shopping around more, but I'm nervous it's going to make me more crazy hahaha.
When I tried on the Monique, I felt like they were kind of pressuring me to buy it, but I still really liked it. Just not sure if i got that OMG I LOVE IT feeling I always see on SYTTD.

I have to say I love the gown I chose, but at first I just really LIKED it. I stared, twirled, turned again, listened to my two girl friends GUSH OVER IT, and then fell in love more. It just was right.
Dont be pressured, but also dont expect that huge SYTTD moment bc I did not cry, did not swoon at first, and certainly didnt think it was THE ONE when I saw it hanging on the hanger.
And, I never ever envisioned how I would look on my wedding day, so yes, that made it a bit harder. I understand you, completely.
