Thanks for all of the responses in the last couple of days! Dixie, Anchor, Musey,Cehrabehra, Sarie_j, NYCSparkle, belle, travelinggal and FG --- I agree with so many of you... I love the maggie AND I love the new dress
My big concern right now is the reality of how I *actually* look in a dress like the second one vs. getting to hide it all in the maggie
I mean, just b/c I've lost some weight doesn't necessarily mean I should be getting into something so revealing. But I'm truly honestly leaning toward the second dress anyway --- it's just exactly what I'd envisioned on a beach before I found the beautiful maggie. I looked long and hard for the maggie which was much more flattering for me at the time (seems less so now with the "real" one) and I could see it on the beach even if it were a bit more formal. The idea of traveling with a smaller/easier dress is appealing too. Plus I am thinking I'll be better able to resell the maggie if it doesn't get covered in sand, while I have no intention of getting rid of the second one.
Matt won't tell me which style he likes better -- but I get the distinct impression that he *doesn't* have any preconceived ideas about me in a long, flowy gown, so I don't think I'd be disappointing him if I switched dresses.
Oh, and I can maybe still wear the maggie for the reception here at home with family and all -- maybe. I get the maggie back next Friday (9 days from now) so I will make my absolute, final decision then. For now I think I gotta go hit the gym...

ps travelinggal and NYCsparkle -- it's a heavy satin and lined, and see-through is not a problem --- thick ugly heavy tag was! Thanks for thinking of that!

I think you just figured it out! *wink*
I''d vote, if you really love the 2nd (which it sounds like you do...) and you don''t feel too ''revealing'' in it, then wear that for the beach and ABSOLUTELY wear the Maggie when your back and tanned!
Either way, you''re going to look great because you''re happy. And that is all that matters!
PS. You look fabulous. Trust whatever your gut tells you!
