Different Style

ambadavis

How do you deal with different styles?  My ideal dress is a full tulle ball gown and my fiance wants said he wants to see me in a straight slinky satin number!  I know Its my dress but I want him to think I look gorgeous, not like a puff ball!  This is my second wedding and my first I did not have the dress I wanted, I had the dress my mom thought I should where, is it so wrong to want to wear my dream dress?!?

It is YOUR dress.  Wear what you want.  You'll look gorgeous regardless.  Maybe you could get a satin, slinky negligee for the honeymoon?  I told my fiancee' that's the one area where he gets absolutely no input.  And if he loves you, he'll think you're beautiful in jeans!

What Leah said. Wear your dream dress for the wedding--you'll have plenty of other occasions (maybe even your honeymoon!) to wear slinky evening gowns out on the town.

DO you have the money for the pouffy dress you want for the wedding, and then a slinky number for the reception? Win/Win

Like pp said if you DO have the money to get both dresses thatd be ideal but if not go with what YOU want so you dont end up regretting it!

I agree with this and for the second gown you can buy a slinky white gown that is not necessarily a wedding gown and that would help keep the price down

yep. get the dress you want, not what he thinks he wants for you. you will feel more beautiful in the dress you pick out, which will inevitably make you more beautiful. He will think you are gorgeous when you feel gorgeous!
