I am going to a wedding in a church. Its a traditional wedding and here are the dresses i have:
A green, White, and pink floral print halter the hem is right below the knee
A black halter with rhinestones below the neckline and the hem is above the knee
A black dress with straps thicker than spaghetti straps and is below the bra line in the back but is higher appropriate in the front. the hem is above the knee
A orange and yellow floral dress with a couple crisscrosses in the back with spaghetti straps and goes with a jean jacket. The hemline is above the knee

I'd say either of the floral dresses. The black ones both sound a little to glitzy or sexy for church.
But it's really hard to tell without seeing the dresses - ask your mom's opinion.

If it is an evening wedding the floral will be too casual. Find out if the wedding is formal or semiformal. One way to tell is where the reception is being held & what time is it until. If reception will be in the evening, than go with one of the black dresses, but bring a wrap for at church because many religions consider it disrespectful to have bare arms in church.

I would wear the print dress with the halter neckline, and have a shrug or a wrap to go over my shoulders in case of cold or the sudden discovery that nobody else has bared their shoulders.
I would never wear something to a church that doesn't cover my shoulders and my knees. That's usually plenty to keep it appropriate and respectful.
Also, I think the happy colors and fun party styling make that outfit best for the reception.

Is there any way you could wear the jacket with the first one? For a church wedding, depending on how traditional the church is, it's proper to cover your knees and shoulders. Some churches even have dress codes that must be followed.
The black ones don't sound appropriate for a church.
It's hard to tell without pictures, but if you can't wear a jacket/wrap/sweater or something with the first one, I'd go with the 4th one.

Sound like you need to go shopping...! You never want to look too sexy or more beautiful than the bride. A simple skirt and nice blouse will look nice.

I would go with the first...no black. Of course, I think halters are hot, anyway.
