Torn Between 2 Dresses!

Hi everyone! I need some help. My wedding is next August and for the first time (even including last year) I finally found dresses that take my breath away. It felt great to have that moment finally, but my dilemma is that I had it twice! LOL Price is not an issue, they only have a $40 difference...
Hi everyone! I need some help. My wedding is next August and for the first time (even including last year) I finally found dresses that take my breath away.
It felt great to have that moment finally, but my dilemma is that I had it twice! LOL

Price is not an issue, they only have a $40 difference and my brother gave me the money to pay for it in full.
I’m torn because there are two major things that concern me but other than that, they are very similar dresses.
Here is dress #1:cfb_77245.jpg

I love the ruching and the neck line, but I don’t like the no straps.

I love the straps and you can’t see it but the cut outs underneath the armpit.
I absolutely love the slit, the buttons down the back the shape, the train for both dresses.
I’m only have a rough time about the top. We’re getting married in Banff, we also booked an adventure session for golden hour in the mountains and I can envision myself in both of them, running in the mountains.
So I need your help! Which do you prefer and why?
Thanks

    Thank you! My mom says the same thing about the first one too.

    #1 all the way for me, I love how you wear it, not it wearing you. And as you mentioned adding straps and/or corset may just be the ticket!!!

    I don’t see any reason they wouldn’t be able to add straps to dress #1! Sounds like you’ve made up your mind, so I’d talk to the store about alteration options and then you’re good to go!

    I agree! I was so close to saying yes to the dress and I instantly thought of dress number one that I have been obsessing over for a least a year now. It is all over my Pinterest. I am sure I can add straps, or change the back to a corset for more security.

    Thanks! It's a bit of a higher cut compared the the first one. I am sure I can add some straps.

    I’m also a fan of #1! If no straps is your concern I’m sure something can be done in alterations Smiley smile

    I know you said you're not a fan of no straps but I personally think the first one looks better on you. Both dresses are fine, but if you're asking which we prefer, I'm picking #1. There's something about the way #2 is cut in the waist that makes your body length disproportionate.

    I absolutely agree, it hits the waist in the perfect area and it gives off the hourglass look! I absolutely adore it. I almost said yes this weekend to the second dress but then I stopped myself because I was thing about this one.

    I personally love the first dress! Just the way it looks on you is gorgeous and the top of it is beautiful the way it is around your bust area.
