    Ok advice needed on wedding dresses

    I need to buy a dress for my brothers wedding in september..hoping that the weather will be lovely (last september every weekend was sunny) so I love coast dresses but ever the moneysaver Im not going to pay the £100+

    So Ive seen a handful on ebay that I quite like, advice needed on which you might think would look good, pros, cons etc

    !Bo2vBl!!Wk~$(KGrHqUOKjEEuf5gw1UqBLpMWHrR+!~~_35.JPG Light champagne sort of colour

    !Bv-rG3wB2k~$(KGrHqR,!jIEv1+0L,!yBMG3vhK16g~~_35.JPG not a great picture but very light blue

    I think I like the red one, but sometimes I have to be careful wearing red (depends how brown I am lol)
    But I do love green...

    I could almost buy them both and see which looks better..also thinking about accessorising and which would be the easiest to get shoes etc to go with

    Ah I like the man input...I think if I can get both cheap enough Ill get them both lol. Im drawn to the red, maybe because its a bit smarter and formal and would stand out in the crowd

    I like the champagne one-def NOT the red bow one, too close to a wedding/bridesmaid dress.
    Light blue is nice as well
