I know this isnt really a " showing" your wedding board BUT I really love to see what other Catholic brides wedding dresses are. I know some churchs do have guidelines as far as how you have to cover up and what not, so just interested to see everyones! Even if you had no regulations! :)   I have not picked out a dress yet BUT I saw a local knotties dress, and have fallen in love with it but can't seem to find it anywhere. Ill share a picture of it..

this is a front view


and this is the back. 

I LOVE it! I love how it is on the more modest side, but at the same time it isnt tooo much cover.
xoxo, Jennifer

    That dress is beautiful!

    And, I shared my dress a few days ago, but I always love to show it again :-)

    I love the fit and the back of the first dress and the beautifu lace on the second dress!  My dress is my siggy picture below.  It's big because it's the sample but I love it so much!  I can't wait for it to come in July!

    I plan to wear either a lace or satin bridal jacket with it for the ceremony...

    My bridesmaids will have strapless dresses as well, but I'm planning on getting them pashmina's to wear at the church. I don't believe our church requires covered shoulders, but I think it's more appropriate anyways.

    This is the picture from the website.



    And this is me in it from when I bought the dress (but I always think pictures in the samples and in salons don't do dresses justice). I'm so excited for my first fitting on Friday!

    All of these dresses are so beautiful! I can't look for a dress yet since we can't set a date until FI's annulment comes through.

    So pretty, everyone!

    I don't have a photo myself, but my dress is Maggie Sottero's Anniston. Strapless, but pretty modest.

    Our priest is also my fiance's close friend, and his instructions were that the bridesmaids and I just "couldn't make him blush". :)

    Crystal--your train is fantastic!
    Newly--love what your seamstress is doing!

    And I love all the lace. I'm a big sucker for lace, if you can't tell by my dress :)

    Gorgeous, ladies!  :-D  I love looking at gowns.

    This was mine - I ordered it with a higher neckline and longer bell sleeves. 

    I highly recommend Casablanca gowns, especially for brides who want/need to customize their dress!

    My church also has no requirements about dress so I have a strapless dress. I love the ribbon sash. I was making some crazy faces to keep from crying, so I've cropped my face out.

    The stock photo

    The front of the dress. This isn't my dress. It was the sample, so it is a bit too big and too long. But I love the shape it gives me.


    I love the back of the dress.It has buttons all the way down the back which is something my mother had in her dress. I just adore this dress and I can't wait to wear it in just over TWO WEEKS!

    So Happy - I went shopping before mine was final! It really helped me get through some of the doldrums.

    Mine is strapless, but for the ceremony part, I will definitely be wearing some sort of shawl for a cover-up during Mass. (I don't actually have a picture of it that looks good yet...)

    Calypso already apologized for using such a harsh term. Really unecessary and childish to drag this post down with passive agressive nonsense.

    I'm late to this, but I knew I had my first fitting coming up.

    I appreciate all the pics of bustles that ladies gave me (newlyzewski and katie anne!)  I think I'm going to go with a simple one point (shown in the pictures).  Its being taken in, and I will probably still have to tack it to my bra to hold it up (you can see my bra in the back pic, and it didn't start out that way, and I really don't think underwear showing is appropriate).
