Re: Show me your Dress!
I loved how pretty I felt in my dress... It has such pretty detailing, and it fit me realllly well so I just felt like it was made for me. I also really liked the dip in the back. Sadly, it's been discontinued.
The one from the designer:
Mine at my first alterations appointment

I don't have a picture of my dress....or me in it for that matter.
I also don't know the style number, or designer. lol. I'm a terrible bride.
My dress has also been discontinued for the last three years...
But if I had to find something similar...
This is pretty close:

That's awful - you need to remedy that situation, quick! Go home, put it on, and snap a pic for us. (But your similar one is really pretty, so I'm sure you're real dress is beautiful too.)
My dress--it's so weird. I wasn't someone that got all emotional about it. I tried on a dress I thought was the one -- only to find out it was discontinued. My sister said, "What about that one, try that one on." So I did and I loved it. It just felt so much more "right" for my wedding and for me than the other one.
Thing is though--when I see pictures of it, it looks very un-spectacular. I mean, it just isn't. But when I put it on or see it in person--even just hanging in the bag--I absolutely love it. Very weird.
And yeah, I don't have any great pro photos of it either.

I loved pretty much everything about it!

I would...if it was at home lol. It's hung up in the guest bedrooms closet at my parents. Neither my father nor FI want to see it.
I'll probably post my dress for sale. I'm not a keeper of things. If you're interested let me know. It's a Maggie Sottero size 8.
This top one shows the top with the rhinestones. I wanted bling but not overboard. This was perfect. And I loved loved the color. Silver mist.
And this has the entire dress. Seriously huge. I didn't think I wanted anything that big but it worked. This thing was heavy.
Here is my Maggie Sottero - Victoriana! I absolutely love my dress... the beading detail, the pick-ups w/detail tucked in each one, the corset back and slight sweetheart neckline! Um yes, love and I cannot wait for my FI to see me in it!!

Here's a close up so you can see the beading.
The sample was way small, but I finally get to try on MINE this Monday. So excited!!
Here is my dress:
I love all the pics...everyone looks so great!! I love seeing how all of the different styles look on REAL women and not the sticky-stick models.
[QUOTE]Oh and StephanieHall - i just love your pics. <strong>My favorite one of all is the one of you in the hall holding your bouquet.</strong> You look stunning and I love your hair in it!

Awww thanks. I love that pic too--it was right before I walked down the aisle! And you already know how in love I am with your dress so I'll quit gushing now.
@Mandaroo--if I was 15 years younger, that would so be my dress!
@sarathiza--I liked the one you bought much better!
I love everyone's dresses--I could talk about each one all day!

Bio Good Times
I posted this in the AW thread earlier too: Alfred Angelo style 2023. Can't upload pics from work comp
I'm not so good with the advice... Can I interest you in a sarcastic comment?

[QUOTE]i'm loving your dresses - sooo pretty! I'm a little sad I found my dress so quickly, but then I think how exhausting the day was, and I'm glad to be done :) I'll be adding a sweetheart neckline, removing the belt, and replacing with an embellishment on the side. dress I bought - <a href="http://www.morilee.com/bridals/blu/4708" rel='nofollow'>http://www.morilee.com/bridals/blu/4708</a> dress I tried on, and still think about, but can't let myself fall in love with - <a href="http://www.morilee.com/bridals/blu/4524" rel='nofollow'>http://www.morilee.com/bridals/blu/4524</a>

The second one is pretty but I LOVE the first one you bought! So pretty and different! Great choice!
Loving the dresses ladies! I love that we all have different taste!
I LOVE my dress. It feels like a nightgown, it is barely there, and it is so me. I feel so glamorous, but so romantic at the same time. I had to include my veil because the dress didn't make me cry but the second i tried on the veil i felt like a bride.
