Fancy dresses for my dad's wedding

I thought I would do a special post (it was actually Kerri's idea - thanks Kerri!) showing the dresses I wore to my Dad's weddings. Now I say weddings because he had two - to the same woman of course. One was last month in Tel-Aviv for friends and family there, and the other was here in California for their friends and family here. Lucky for me, because I love traveling, and I love dolling up for events. I am truly a girly-girl. Below is the black gown I wore last sunday to his California wedding:

And here is the dress I wore to the wedding in Tel-Aviv. The quality of these isn't as great, but you get the point.

I love both dresses, and I love how different and unique each one is. I have to say the gold one is my favorite though because it literally shines, and it is perfect for traveling because it already has a crinkled look, so it didnt matter if it got wrinkled in my suitcase. Both dresses were about $100 and from Nordstrom. I usually do not spend that much but the gold dress was a gift to me so I didnt spend anything, and with the black one I decided to splurge. So tell me what you think, which dress do you think is more fabulous? I have absolutely no idea what the daughter-of-the-groom is supposed to wear and I was told to wear whatever I wanted, so how did I do? Do I look daughter-of-the-groom appropriate?
