Thanks for your input everyone!! My MOH and one of my bridesmaids tried on #1 and #2 and liked both of them, with #1 being the favorite. MOH is about 5-6 athletic build but slender, BM is about 5-2 short, petit but curvy. All of the other BM's are between 5-5 and 5-10, very slender and average to small busts.
I've tried on all 3. However, only have pics from #2 and #3. I forgot to save the picture of #1 before I closed my phone.
I have pretty much ruled out #3. It is $317 and if every single one of you didn't chose it, then there is not sense in me picking that one. So it's down to #1 or #2.
#1: I tried on, and luckily the top of the dress comes up pretty high and makes a larger bust seem much less than it actually is. I didn't get to see a picture of the dress on the BM that is 5-2, but she said it looked great.
Novemberbride: My mom had the same opinion about the tule adding weight, but it actually doesn't at all, and I even tried it on in ivory. The a-line skirt is still the overpowering factor. The salon is just down the street from my building so I am going to go tomorrow at lunch to get another picture it.
#2: I LOVE from the side. With the bow popping out just a little bit, it is super flattering.
However, from the front it really likes to add weight around the hips. Here are the two pictures I took. Does anyone else see the lines on the front being a problem?
ETA: The BM that is 5-2 is the shortest of all th bridal party, by about 4 inches. I worry that the #2 will make her look even shorter?
