I'm procrastinating cleaning my house,  so i thought it would be fun for everyone to post a picture of their dress!!!  I don't have a picture on my 

 on me because i dont want FI to snoop or see it LOL! I'm so excited, but at the same time, i'm having some worries because the dress looks so much better in person and you cant see the details well in pictures. I Love it every time i put it back on though! But here is a link for my dress on DB.   http://www.davidsbridal.com/Product_Organza-Draped-Pick-up-with-Beaded-Lace-Empire-L9479

I C&P my response from Attire:

Pretty. It reminds me of Belle's dress in Beauty and the Beast, but isn't overtly princessy.

Here's mine:


Close-up of the back so you can see the pretty lace dtails, rosettes, and buttons:

Your dress is gorgeous!! I have a vintage Maggie Sottero.

bunni727

Thanks! It was so lovely, and perfect for me.

I did have lots of people question the length ("Aren't you worried you will look short?" "Umm, I am short."), and the lack of beading ("but you need bling! Don't you want to feel glamorous?" "not really a priority, no."), but it was what I wanted, and exactly half of the budget my parents gave me for a dress, so I got it. Once people, mainly the bridal shop ladies and my mom, saw me in it, they couldn't believe they had doubted.

H did that on his own; his attire was just as much a surprise as my dress, but the sneak was with me when I bought my shoes. He did a great job matching.

I think it looks great! And he did a great job matching! My FI is a little sneak with things like that too. I cant wait to see him in his tux in 28 days!   

nwwoodsy! i bet your dress is gorgeous! I love the vintage look!

I love dress posts.  Here's mine.  I really wanted a gold dress, and this was the closest I could find in bridal shops.  Couldn't find anything gold and nice in regular dresses

I love seeing everyone's dresses. Mine is in my sig. I'll try and find a picture of the front of it. The train really sold it for me.

I love those dresses! Bunni, yours is amazing! I thought of trying a shorter dress, but I wasn't sure I could pull it off. You definitely can!

Here's mine on the model:

It's Allure Couture c180. It was discontinued in December, I found out in January, and called around until I finally found one left in the store. It was pretty close to my size, too. So lucky!

I basically went to the store and said:  "Gimme your biggest dress"

The lady helping me giggled, and I was like "No seirously, biggest dress"

  I tried on others to make my family happy, but yup, ended up with their biggest dress

Here's my Casablanca 1995 the day I decided on it  

And the back: (sample dress, clipped in the back. before mine came in)

Only 68 days til I get to wear it!!

Oh, I love dress picture posts!

Here is mine.  It is by Essense of Australia...





My train (see above in bustled) was probably my favorite part of the entire dress!

I love seeing everyone's different styles!

I love all of the dresses!

Here is mine with my bollero on (I will have it off for the ceremony but bought it because I'm getting married in November and didn't want to be cold)

Aw I love seeing all of the dresses! Mine is in the works - I can't find it in the states so a seamstress is making it for me. It's this exact design, but in gold lace: http://www.stephanieallin.net/collections/la-dolce-vita/nina-short/

Beautiful dresses ladies!

Here's mine (in addition to my sig pic)

Sierra524

Here is mine :] I dont have any pics of me in it, but this is the pic from the website. Its from Davids Bridal. I love it because it shows off everything good about my body. My FI is going to die when he sees it. Ive been telling him its huge and poofy (exactly what I didnt want) bc I know he wants to see me in something fitted. I knew before I was even engaged I wanted to look sexy on my wedding day, found this dress online, and went into the store to get it. It was the first one I tried on, and I did try about 8 others, but this was def it. Its sitting in my moms closet. I try it on everytime I go over there.

Oleg Cassini from DB! It took me one day to find my dress and I LOVED it!

My Kleinfeld Pnina! Yes, I am a cliche, but how could I not fall in love with that bling and that magic corset?! I can't wait to see FI's jaw drop...Only problem is I haven't seen it in a year and I don't remember at all what the back looks like! I don't think there is a train...?



I finally get to see it again at the end of next month!!
