    Short! If I already choose something non-traditional, I would go with a nice short dress!

    I would do separates that didn't show too much midriff.

    Short looks cute for garden or spring weddings especially in the afternoon. Separates are to me Middle Eastern in style if done right but otherwise are too prom dress for me. I don't think either would really work on me but it really depends on the wedding and the person.

    I’m a fan of separates more than short dresses but to each their own!!! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

    Originally, I wanted a tea length dress, but now we're going for an elopement style, I'm looking at separates. Though I don't think they'd be classed as bridal.

    But on account of me being the bride, I guess they would? Smiley winking

    I feel like separates are super trendy right now. So I’d rather go short.

    I do better with showing my legs than my midline; and although I like both styles—a short dress for casual wear, and the long separates for a more formal wear—I would have to choose the short dress!

    Neither are my style, but I would do separates over a short dress.

    I don't care for either of them but if I had the body for it, I guess I'd go with separates.
