Help me choose a dress please! (pick heavy)

Elizabeth, on September 12, 2019 at 8:23 AM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 40
Dresses are numbered on photos.
2 of these are obviously too big but all would need alterations so that doesn't weigh in on my opinion. So imagining these fit which would you recommend for me?
Pic 1) tag must have been cut out to allow for corset back customization which works perfectly because I'm starting to think that's a must for me since my waist is so much smaller than my bust.
Pic 2) I really dont like this dress but I added it since I have it. Davids Bridal style 9t8076 a line dress with no train.
Pic 3) gorgeous charmeuse satin gown with beaded lace overlay. both with sweep train. Fits mostly once bust cups were removed but hips will need to be taken in and I need to find a good lace that looks good as a hem since it's a tad short. Allure bridals style number 8800
Style 4) came with a 3 hoop circle slip but it wouldnt have fit in my bedroom so I had to try the dress on without it. This is a David Bridal Collection Ball Gown style number V3849 I believe. Number one also was given to me with a pretty poofy slip but not pictured with one here.
Dress is somewhere where any of these would look fine in my opinion so that's not relevant.

    I think it depends on what look you're going for.

    #1 would be great for a beach wedding.

    #2 I'm not a huge fan of. No offense, but it reminds me of a prom dress. Sizing issues aside, it doesn't look like it has much structure built in. I think it would still look kind of slouchy, even after alterations.

    #3 gives me more of a rustic vibe. It would be beautiful for an outdoor wedding or a barn venue. My favorite out of the 4.

    #4 looks the most elegant to me. It would fit a more formal vibe.

    It depends on what style you’re going for. My favorites on you are 1 and 3. 3 is definitely more formal than 1 but not too formal. I love it!!

    I'm thinking of going with 3 as well. I thought a more form fitting dress might make me look fat but it actually doesn't look too bad and once I get the waist and hips nipped in a little it might look amazing. The wedding is going to be on a beach or by a waterfall but I've seen some ballgowns on the beach and I love the look so that's why I say location doesnt really matter much too me when it comes to these dresses. I really hate number 2. So plain lol but like I said I own it so I thought I'd add it for good measure. thanks all for your opinions.
