Show us your plus size wedding gown!

QueerFemme · February 2013

The current "wedding dress thread" doesn't seem to be working most of the time, so I think it's time we start a new thread. We had one going, but l thought we would start fresh and make it a sticky now !

So, please share your wedding gown with us! If you have pictures of you in your dress, please post them! If you can, include the name of the designer and the style #. If you have a picture of the original designer's photo, please share that also. It is very helpful to see the difference between the gown on a model and on an actual plus size body. If you already posted your dress to another wedding dress thread, please repost it here!

Here is mine, which I think most board regulars have probably seen it, but I'll get the ball rolling for this new thread!

My dress is a Mori Lee from the Julietta (plus size) line. It is style #3106

Here is my wedding gown. It is plain and simply. I am not one for all the bling and I like it because it is an ivory color and flowy. David's Bridal

QueerFemme · March 2013

Beautiful !! Congrats!

Ella and Pedro · March 2013

Love the drapey chiffon (? I think) sleeves

Love the sparkles

Here is the photo of me in David's Bridal right when I picked the dress. The Style number is Style 9T3090

Here is mine:
The top wasn't fitting right on the sample because apparently my breasts are like 3 sizes larger than the rest of me.

Kate McCay · March 2013

My dress is a size 22 Allure W283

I will be getting mine ultered into a sweetheart neckline

Chaneltara · March 2013

Here is the model pic, I think it looks better on me

Ckfragall · March 2013

How do you post pictures?

ElixirIce · March 2013

I just said "HELL YES!!! to my dress this evening. I never thought I was "skinny" enough to wear something like this. I kept thinking that I had to hide all of my flaws under a big frumpy gown, but when my sweet consultant strapped me in... HELLOOOOO CURVES!!! I feel AMAZING in this dress and I can't wait to show the man of my dreams. I am SO SO SO excited!!

<div>Love your dress! You look beautiful in it. What dress is it?</div>

ElixirIce · March 2013

Thanks so much!! It's the 2013 Tiana dress from the AA Disney Princess Collection.

LBRM_NJ · April 2013

I was married in 2005, but, I come back now and again to check the Jewish Brides board and noticed this board, so, I came in to check it out! As I said, I was married almost 8 years ago, but, this is me in my dress. It was a size 18 from David's Bridal.

Ckfragall · April 2013

I said yes!!! I wasn't even going to try this dress on didn't think it would look good on me. I used to weigh 299lbs I have been working hard and have lost 120lbs of weight but when I look in the mirror I still see the same old me. I almost lost the dress of my dreams out of fear! Just goes to show you need to try on EVERYTHING because you don't know what you are going to look good in. What do you think ladies??? Is it a keeper

QueerFemme · April 2013

Beautiful Ckfragall ! I actually tried that dress on. I already had my Mori Lee, and I went into Davids Bridal to pick up my BMs dress, and it was the day your dress arrived at my DB. I had to try it on. I came VERY close to buying it and just selling my gown, but there was a risk it wasn't going to arrive on time, so I stuck with my original dress.

I love the detail on it !! Congrats !!

Thank you!, I have been really surprised I haven't seen any pictures of a dress like mine on any of the boards I'm on. Even on our local site board . I'm so excited I can't wait for next march!!

nicolhuff · April 2013

Here it is...

chyannek · April 2013

here's mine (not me in it though....my friend has that pic on her phone)

Dani182 · April 2013

Here is my dress. I FELL in love with it. It was actually the first dress that I tried on, but I didn't want to choose the first dress so I actually went and looked at other dresses. I just could not get this one out of my head. I love it so much and I think that it flatters my body.

KeighlaDanielle · April 2013

This is mine. I don't have any of me in it (don't want FH to see!)

It's Allure W314

QueerFemme · April 2013

cemetreesc · May 2013

This is my dress at my 2nd fitting. the back now matches the front exactly with fringing on the top & beading and the bust is fitted better

Stephanietuttle1024 · May 2013

I'm between two right now. Cannot decide at all. One is a White By Vera Wang from David's Bridal. Style Number VW351007 and the other is from Alfred Angelo Style Number 2362. We're having a May Wedding. Burlap and Lace theme. Charcoal and Canary yellow are our colors. What do you ladies think?

EDIT: I can't get the pictures of me in them to upload.

Stephanie -

you should be able to add photos using the little green looking icon on the tool bar. On my screen, it is the third over from the right side.

If that doesn't work, let me know. If you send me a PM, I can give you my email address and you can email them to me, and I'll add them for you.

AllieBear725 · May 2013

My mom only took a few, none of the back, but it's a corset.

AllieBear725 · May 2013

Not sure how to edit since the boards look different o.O

But here is a link to my dress. It's DB http://www.davidsbridal.com/Product_Beaded-Lace-Side-Drape-with-Satin-Split-Front-9E9351

QueerFemme · May 2013

Looks great on you Allie !! I tried that dress on at DB. It's gorgeous!

AllieBear725 · May 2013

Thanks! I was surprised I liked the way it looked.
