A little help: which dress to choose?

[Barash]

Ladies, I desperately need your opinion.

 

We are going to have a beach ceremony. Bare foot, private and small. I am starting to shop for dresses, and obviously getting rather torn apart.

 

First thing to mention: I am looking for a knock off dress, and I am going to do the TTD session right after the ceremony as we are not planning to have a reception. I already found a nice and simple chiffon dress for the evening that matches my needs and shoes.

 

I am small (size 4-6), but pear-shaped, so I'm looking at a-line or empire dresses.

 

My choice number one is tea length a-line taffeta dress. Replica of Mon Cheri Destinations.

My concern here is that taffeta will look too heavy on the beach and it might look weird bare foot. Also since it's a knock off dress, the rouche may be not as nice and elegant...

I am also considering Justin Alexander 8465 replica instead.

 

I am also thinking about quite a different style. Ruffled floor length chiffon dress. Maybe not necessarily this one, but the style alike.

My FH and father-in-law as well as my father voted for the first one though. And floor length may be not as comfortable in the sand.

 

And recently I also thought of a simpler option. I can get it in white.

 

 

For any dress I come up with, there is transportation to keep in mind. I believe chiffon will take it better and will be easier to recover. Also to match my FH's attire: most likely he's gonna be wearing linen shorts and line. Rather casual, so I don't want to be a complete contrast to his look. I like all of them that's why I need your opinion.

 

Any thoughts?
