Help me pick out a dress for a wedding

DH's brother is getting married next month. The dress I bought in anticipation of wearing is not too small. The girls have grown too much and while it fits everywhere else, it looks (and feels) like I'm trying to bind my boobs to my chest. I don't want to spend a ton of money on a new dress, but none of the ones I have are nice enough for a wedding. Which of these do you like more? I feel comfortable with these just because I have dresses from these brands and know how they fit my body for the most part.

I love suggestions! Thanks! See, I'm leaning towards the last one because I'd rather have sleeves than the dress and cardigan. I know I'll need a coat regardless because it will be cold where the wedding will be held. But this way all I need is the dress and maybe a tank top to cut down on the cleavage...

Definitely the first one. It is the most fancy and would be perfect for a wedding, easy to dress it up a bit too.

Most of those are really not very dressy and are jersey material. I am assuming that it is at least somewhat of a formal occasion, since you said that most of your dresses you have now are not nice enough. The second one is a bit dressier, though I am not a big fan.

Have you looked at minefornine.com or similar websites? Then you could get something a little fancier for a fraction of what it cost to buy it (since you probably won't have much of a need for a fancy maternity dress again, right).

Honestly, I have no idea how formal/informal it will be. Guys will be wearing tuxes and bridesmaid will have longer dresses, but my future SIL and my BIL are not very helpful other than that. The wedding is taking place during the day and I was thinking of dressing up the outfit with good jewelry and whatnot.
