in New York
Hi Girls-
My curiosity was sparked by Meagan's beautiful dress and I am hoping we can do a dress thread! I would love to know what you girls have worn/ will wear on the big day! I'll start- I bought mine online from Ann Taylor during a 30% off sale- Wootwoot!!

I guess I can't get the actual picture in here so here is the link!

I hope you gals will post your dresses too!

    FYI -- You can add a picture by clicking on that little tree in a box (it's the insert picture button).  :)  Your dress looks very nice; the flowers on the shoulder looks good.

    I... don't even have a pic of me in the dress, haha.  But here's my dress:

    I altered the straps to make them regular (not a halter) and got the sash in ivory, so here's me in it:

    Here's mine:

    http://www.casablancabridal.com/collections/view/28/384

    I'm having it special ordered with a deep sweetheart neckline. My mom hates it, probably because it isn't super traditional but it is exactly what I was looking for and I think it's perfect for my woodsy Pratt's Falls wedding :)

    Now I'm just on a mission to fit into it....5 months today gives me anxiety!

    But the back was my absolute faorite part.  http://i41.tinypic.com/2cg0pe8.jpg

    I had the back changed from straight across to a nice, sexy little dip...

    And the train was just... WOW!!!  Pictures don't even do it justice... it was breathtaking.

    Oooh I love looking at everyone's dresses! Here is mine:



    Pics where you can see the Swarovski crystals and beading around the waist





    bitofrits: I tried your dress on! I really liked it a lot, but the beading rubbed on my arms and gave me a rash in the few minuted I had it on, so I figured wearing something like that all day probably would be bad news for my sensitive skin.

    This is my dress! I don't have a picture with me in it because our wedding is in November and I don't want the FI to find it on my phone :) the picture does not do it justice and the back is amazing but can't find a good picture of the back http://www.theknot.com/wedding-dress/sophia-tolli/y21152?src=par

    I LOVE all your dresses, ladies! Very classy and beautiful!

    I don't want FI to see mine, but here's a link.. it's Sottero and Midgley- Landis

    http://www.sotteroandmidgley.com/dress.aspx?keywordText=Landis&keywordType=any&page=0&pageSize=15&style=RSM1079

    It came in over the weekend and is now paid off! Super quick as I ordered it in August, so a little over four months. I'm super excited, although I'm not ready to try it on. Weird? I just needed a few more months to ensure my body won't change too much. (been on a new weight lifting regimen at the gym).

    JN I love yours! It is a little like mine in concept but a lot fanicer! So lovely! I love the one shoulder flower! I told myself when I lose 10lbs I can try mine on again! The wedding is such a great motvator to get healthy and in shape!

    Everyone's dresses are so beautiful- it is so fun to see so many different styles!

    Here's mine. It was the sample and way too big on me. I also had that bow removed. But you get the idea!

    Thank you! I love it too, but you made an excellent choice :)

    Monica, where did you get your veil? I've been having trouble finding veils that lay flat on my head like that. I want something very minimal, no bunching or poofiness and really simple and sheer. Yours is beautiful.

    Thank you! It was a drop veil... You just use 2 hat pins to hold it in place. Literally pin it into your hair. I ordered it online and will have to double check the site I got it from. I will let you know.

    Ok got it... it was Occansey Designs...  http://www.occanseydesigns.com/index.html

    It was a little more than I wanted to spend ($80 I think)... but I just wasn't totally in love with my first veil (that I got for like $20... an awesome deal, but it was a regular cathedral length on a comb)

    I got the bridal illusion material, so it had just the slightest shine to it.  It captured the light beautifully!  I got so many compliments on it!

    Here is a view from the front...
