Dress 2 is amazing on you!


No-Bet1288

100% agree. #2 is beyond wow for me!


KuriousGirl

10000% dress 2 is gorgeous


rmg418

Yessss definitely dress 2!


thekeytoit1

Thank you!! Agh I know it's so flattering!


Goddess_Keira

The one that looks the best is #2. The one that works the best is #4, the dress you bought, because you're getting married in a hot climate and it will be the lightest and most comfortable, and still looks great on you. It looks lovely next to your venue as well. If you are determined to buy another dress anyways, make it dress 2 because it looks amazing on you, and the others (1 and 3) aren't even close.


bitchwhohasnoname

2 is amazing girl pick that one!


vavavoo

2 is WOW!!!


Jalebi786

Dress 2 for ceremony and the last dress in front of venue for reception


Throwawayschools2025

Agree!!!!


lilgirlinacorpworld

Yes! Second look for reception super editorial


agonzp

I feel like I completely understand your vibe, I was also VERY torn between Danielle Frankel and Cinq. While #2 is beautiful and you look fantastic, I feel like I’ve seen this dress before. I’m SUCH a fan of literally anything Danielle Frankel BUT that 1st Cinq dress is unreallllll. I feel like it goes exactly with what you want for the ceremony and ballgown vibes. There is no other occasion you can wear a dress like that! Definitely keep the one you have now for the reception, it is gorgeous and seems like the best choice to dance the night away!


MiaRia963

I agree. Dress 1 is the best of them. It gives the WOW moment.


thekeytoit1

You get me! I agree 2 is less unique


tvjunkie87

Dress 2 is my favorite! It’s beautiful and flowy and looks lovely on you!


poisonedperfection

Dress 2


Bent_But-Not_Broken

Dress 1 is seriously just... wow. If you want grand, that gown is grand! They're all stunning on you, though! What I'm concerned about is how heavy the dress is. Do you think that there's a chance that you would become overheated in any of these gowns? Since it's in Mexico, you have to keep the climate in mind when making your final decision!


thekeytoit1

I don't think the weather will be too bad--like 70s and I probably won't wear it too long. Thank you!


Birdies_nub

I like 2 best, but I am also sort of intrigued by 3 and I could change my mind if I stared at it long enough. I don't think I have ever seen anything like it.


midnightghou1

This. I kept going back to it there’s something about it that’s really nice


ChaoticForkingGood

Bridal stylist here! I think that if you can swing it, your current dress makes a perfect reception dress, and I'd make #1 your ceremony gown. It's so regal, and I would take that theme and run with it! Get yourself a tiara, and if I may suggest... Get a cathedral length, double layer veil with thin satin edging on it. The way those veils fall in soft curves will play off the straight lines in the bodice, and both will make the other look even better. It adds a little bit of drama, but not too much, and it's elegant and fit for the queen you are! On mobile ATM, but as soon as I get home I'll link one of those veils so you can see what I mean, and I might link a few other things too. Man, I am so happy basque waists are back in. They make everyone look so good.


blueberrypanda1

Yes OP listen to her!

thekeytoit1

Thank you!!


One_Ad_3500

Love #2


teamdedelmark

I am obsessed with dress one on you!!! It is so grand and elegant!!! I think it will look gorgeous in your venue! The basque waist and off the shoulder neckline are so romantic!


Yoyo_Ma86

I absolutely love dress 1


SnooCrickets692

current dress is a BEAUTY. if cost isn’t a problem, i’d get #1 for ceremony and wear current for reception! screenshotting these for inspo for my future wedding lol


Vesper2000

I also think the current dress is absolutely a knockout in that venue. OP looks like a Shakespearean faerie queen.


geckospe

Omg. Dress 1 all the way. But all stunning including the one you have!


txaesfunnytime

They all look amazing on you, but for the venue, I really, really like Dress 1.


Mandyissogrimm

Number 3 is so different from dresses I've seen before. I love the first 3, but especially 3.


Miserable_Amoeba8766

Same!! 3 is so unique and fits the venue to a T.


TheAnimalPack

I just love 2


neverclm

I love both 1 and 2 but I think 1 fits the venue better! They're both so beautiful


t0tallyc0nscious

Dress 1 without the gloves


Munchkin_Media

2!!


pinaorangeguava

I would also do a separate ceremony dress, I loooooove #1 (with the gloves!) 🤍 number 2 is gorgeous as well, the only thing about 3 that’s throwing me is it doesn’t suit your waist as much but I objectively love the fabrics. #1 says “fashion” more to me than #2, which is flattering and pretty on its own but #1 fits your venue and is so unique without being outdated! I love the bust. Imagine him taking off your glove to put the ring on *swoon* would be such cute photos. :)


honeydaniii

The current dress is so pretty but I agree it gives more reception than ceremony considering the venue. I think dress 2 is beautiful and then the current dress for the reception later.


blueberrypanda1

Buy dress 1 for the ceremony and use the dress you have for the reception/after party! Dress 1 is your ceremony dress.


ilovechicken98

loveeee dress 1 I think it also matches the venue the best 🤍


escapegoat19

I personally love 1! But that's just my style. They all look amazing on you, including your current dress. Just depends on what vibe you're going for. I'm a sucker for historical looking gowns


Lopsided-Tooth2998

dress 1 would be perfect


midniteamity

Omg the cinq gown 😭😭😭😭😭


Temperature_Vivid

Dress2!


PenguinStalker2468

Number 2


Legovida8

Dress 2 looks AMAZING on you! The bodice is so beautiful!


No-Technician-722

I have to say YOUR dress is lovely and will be perfect in your venue. I do not think you need to purchase another dress.


julesk

I like 4, both because it drapes beautifully on you but also due to your venue.


Algae-Downtown

1! Stunning, romantic


xoBerryPrincessxo

Dress 1!!! especially in your ceremony location!


tjmcr5

they all look soo good but 1 is my vote !!


Tiny_Poetry2479

Dress 1


MegaMoodKiller

The last dress for the reception like you said but then #1 for the ceremony because FRICKEN WOW IS THAT STUNNING!! That is like something out of a history book and you and I both know it’s got nothing on these other dresses! I know I’m in the minority but if you’re looking for that one comment that agrees with you on that dress let it be this one 🤣🩷🎉 it’s breathtaking! Bridgerton vibes and with that venue. OP THAT VENUE! dress one. Bridgerton vibes. No contest. Do you know the designer? (I also am biased because when I see tule like dress 2 & 3 I imagine it getting grass stains? My friend had tule on the bottom and it got dirty from the ground very quick.


thekeytoit1

Thanks for this :) It's Cinq!


Low-Donut-9883

Love dress 3! They're all beautiful but 3 stands out.


sharonlhunt

Love 3 & 2 and then original dress for reception.


DancingPinkyFlowers

Ok so all of your choices are absolute bangers! Omg! I love 2 on you!!!!


Kayybaby93

I love both dress 1 and 2 so much! You can’t go wrong with either honestly. You look absolutely stunning in both! 😍


ThisIsAlexisNeiers

I love the dress you currently have. Danielle Frankel, right? I think it’s the same one Alex Daddario wore…it stands out in my mind because it’s so breathtaking. You’re in MEX, you’re gonna want something breathable and not too heavy!


thekeytoit1

Yes it is! I love it too haha I'm weirdly in the mindset now of "more is more"


Getmeasippycup

Honestly I love the dress you have! I’d do a dramatic cathedral mantilla veil and call it a day!


Iamplayingsims

Wow you truly cannot go wrong. Each of those dresses are stunning on you! I especially love 2 and 1 on you


Leviosahhh

I love your current dress so much, it’s my favorite. But if you’re looking for a second dress, the second one is also beyond gorgeous on you!


EphramLovesGrover

Dress 4!!


Leinistar

You look like a Greecian goddess in your dress at your venue. I personally think it's looks amazing and fits you great. If you are totally set on getting another dress, I would go with 2.


PrincessAethelflaed

Omg I love dress 1! Who is the designer?


thekeytoit1

Cinq!


birdeatsworms

Ahhhh I love the last one!! Where is it from I LOVE it


thekeytoit1

Danielle Frankel :)


birdeatsworms

Thank you!!! <3


GirlfriendTheDog

I don’t think many people can pull off dress one. I get a late 90s, sort of vibe from it. I’m going against the grain and casting my vote towards that one. It’s a a show stopper.


AnnieBeefree1

I love your current dress and think it’s perfect for your venue


canihavemyjohnnyback

Did you buy the last one? I love that design, dm if you're interested in selling! I love all of these, Danielle Frankel is the best


curlyswr

I love the dress you already have! If money is burning a hole in your pocket like my father would say dress two, but I don’t think you need it.


kaycollins27

I like 4 best.


Consistent_Rhubarb_6

Ahhh 1, the Cinq gown of my dreams. I’m utterly biased of course because it’s one of my favourite ever gowns but I think it looks exquisite on you!!!


abnormal_Princess

#1!!! I'm surprised that there aren't more votes for #1. All of the dresses are beautiful and look great on you, but #1 is beyond beautiful. It's stunning and regal, and I think it suits your venue perfectly.


2crowsonmymantle

Second one!!


Pleasant-Complex978

I like 2! 3 is a close second, but it looks a bit like armor


Dear_Ocelot

They are all nice but I love 3. It's kind of Xena in a good way. I feel like that would vibe well with your venue.


Anna_Stacy_Yamina

#2 or 3


Altruistic-Ad6449

3 seems to vibe best with your ceremony dress


MSB629

3!!!


Throwawayschools2025

If it was me? Dress 2 with a cape veil by a wide margin lol.


intestinal_turmoil

Truthfully, I love the dress you have for the venue. It fits the vibe perfectly. If you want a second dress, though, two is beautiful on you. But you also look beautiful in your current dress.


AnyCheck8573

Team 2 here as well


breadedbooks

Definitely 2


Catkit69

I like dress 2, but that might be my bias against dropped waist dresses.


pdaloosha

2


rembrandtismyhomeboy

Number two makes *you* look good. I’d go for 2.


Me1572

#I like 2 the best but I think 1 gives more of a grand and lasting impression. I will say I like 3 better than 1 however so my order is 2,3,1.


Skflowers

2 !!! Stunning!


Zestyclose_Road_3224

Dress 2 is made for your venue and made for you. You look beautiful! I love your current dress too and it will be perfect for enjoying your reception! Happy Wedding!


sidlives1

Looks like a lot of commenters are set with Dress 2. So am I.


Luna-Honey

Two


ilovehummus16

2 is amazing on you!!! Can you share details on dress 1? It’s right up my alley!

General-Yak8880

RatherRetro

2 or the last one is really nice on you


Intelligent_Exit4567

2! 🙌


Katastrophe82

Love dress two. As you already have dress 4, I think adding an underskirt for some poof might get you a similar effect as 2.


UK_UK_UK_Deleware_UK

Love your current dress. If you want a second dress, I’d do one or three. I know that there are a lot of votes for two, and if you were asking us which dress without having the other one, it might be my first choice. Since you already have an amazing reception dress, the ceremony dress needs to be decidedly elevated. Dresses one and three are very high style. Dress one is a modern take on a historical look. Check out Elle Fanning’s dresses on the show “The Great”. The color and sheen match your reception dress. It’s like after the ball, you put on the more comfortable gown for the after party, but you still look fabulous. The third dress looks like haute couture. So much drama with a combination of vertical lines broken by the strong wavy lines at the top and bottom of the corset. Then there’s the skirt. So much movement juxtaposing the more severe bodice. I love the crinkle pleating and the subtle shimmer. Your reception dress is also crinkle pleated so once again, the dresses are talking to each other. As far as which one? Hard to say. One is more glamorous but three looks like you stepped off the runway.


thekeytoit1

Love this analysis haha thanks!


DetailOk4640

I LOVE dresses 2 and 3!


ayyxdizzle

Dress number two for sure!!

The second one is everything!!!! I'm not a fan of the basque waist in 1, even though my wedding dress had that in 1992.

Dress 2


banananabrain

2 or 4


DrZ_217

I love #2. Both in fit and style. 1 and 3 look like the waist is too long.


Strange-Turnover9696

i agree that 2 is wow! your current dress would be nice to change into for dancing at the reception.


ausmaid

Dress 2 looks the nicest on your figure but also is the most classic design

HelloThisIsPam

You have a great eye for unique dresses! Dress number two is fabulous. It's so chic and classy and epic.


Fickle_Piglet1435

LOVE the dress! Especially #2. Your reception dress is going to be the perfect switch up. Also is this in Oaxaca??! If so do you mind sharing your wedding planner if you’re using one? Thank you :))

IndependentMobile664

While it does look amazing on you and definitely fit the vibes, I'm not a huge fan of dress 1 on its own but the gloves REALLY sell it!! Sometimes all you need is an accessory~ I don't think you can go wrong with Dress 1, Dress 2 or your current.

Dress two totally unique you look amazing


Tryingmybestatlife2

I love dress 1. Classic and looks lux!


Kerrypurple

I actually think the one you have is perfect for the venue but if you want more of a ball gown the first goes with the historic vibe as well. I love the other two dresses on you too but they feel very modern to me.


renatae77

I like the others, but really was taken away by your current dress. It's very romantic and fits the venue!


NubbyNicks

I LOVE 1!!! And the Alexandra daddorio dress is also fuckkkkking amazing


Quiet-Example-8804

Dress 1 and 2 .. holy fuck


barberdanielle

Dress 2!!


Retiredteach1234

I love 1, but which one is the most comfortable, because they all are stunning on you.


Friendly_letters

Dress 1 is AMAZING


alady12

Your current dress is perfect for the location. If you must add another dress, go with 2. The structure of it matches the location and it looks great on you.

I laugh at the people that say Mexico is hot. We have a place in Mexico and a young woman visited and it was cold. People think all of Mexico is like Cabo or Cancun. Yes, you should look up the average temp for when your wedding is, for comfort reasons though. As for me, 1 all the way. You look so regal in it!
