  I like the dress but for at the beach. I think all that crochet may come off as over-kill at your wedding, it'd be better if it were white, maybe, In my opinion but it is your wedding. If you're into simple stuff, try looking at maxi dresses. They're simple, pretty and affordable. They'll be around a lot now that Spring is around the corner.

  I think it's a beautiful dress and will suit what you're describing of your wedding quite well.

  Sorry not a fan at all.  Are you getting married on the beach?  I've seen lots of simple beachy dresses that looked great.

  To answer your question honestly, no I wouldn't wear that as my wedding dress. That doesn't mean that you shouldn't, though! I really do like casual dresses as wedding dresses such as white sundresses. Something about this dress just doesn't do it for me though.

  I like it (a lot, actually), but I don't know if I like it as a wedding dress. You're the only one who knows if it vibes with your wedding vision, though.

  Nope, would never wear that as a wedding dress. But I would wear it in the summer to grab some lunch with a friend.

  I love that!  Plus, you can get use out of it again after the wedding (like PP said, going out to lunch with friends or something).

  Crochet is personally not my taste but I do think the dress looks beautiful on the model and I do love seeing dresses different from most traditional bridal. My advice to you is to check their return policy before ordering (which will more than likely be more flexible than a bridal shop). If its possible to return it, I say go ahead and order it. If it makes you feel amazing and like bride, there's your dress! At the end of the day if it feels right for you, wear it!

  I am a total beach brat and love this dress if I were to have a small wedding on the beach.  I agree with what someone said above about checking the return policy because, while I love the dress, the crochet vertical lines across the hips and legs would not be forgiving and I think you'd need to have a killer body to pull it off.
  
  Overall, love the dress and it's perfect for the wedding you described if it flatters your body.  Good luck!
