Not sure why my picture isn't popping up but it appears if you double click on it you can see it. I would have never picked this dress based on the photo on the website, but it looks awesome in person.
haleyk620 did you have trouble finding the dress to try on? I've been searching everywhere and no one seems to have it in stock! Can you share pics of what it looks like in real life??
@Knottie69208476 here it is in real life! I actually wasn't looking specifically for this dress when I started trying out bridal gowns, but once I put this one on, I fell in love! I found it at Brandi's Bridal Galleria in New Glarus, WI. I'll also add that this picture was taken before alterations. I had to have it shortened some because I'm only 5'4''.
All of these dresses are so amazing! They are all so different I love seeing what others are wearing! Here's mine, I love it! It was the first one I liked and after a second trying on I knew it was the perfect dress for my winter wedding! I still have about 5 months until it comes in and I can't wait to put it on in my size! The one I tried was an 8 and mine is coming in a 2 so it's hard to get a good perspective!
This is mine a David's bridal Melissa sweet however the photos are pre-alterations. I've already had it altered to shorten it some and add in a bustle. I can't wait to wear it again only 20-21 days left!
I wanted a dress that had a high neck and short sleeves; but also lots of tulle and puffy skirt. I couldn't find any like this. But I found one with the neck and sleeves I wanted and when I tried it on we realized that that part was not attached to the rest of the dress, and that it could be bought separately. Then I found a dress with the right amount of poofy tulle that the top went with. So we combined them and made my perfect dress! First pic is with the top; second is without.
I bought my dress back in October, and it's being safely stored away from peeping eyes at my parents house. I got to try it on again last week and I'm still head over heels for it. It needs a bunch of alterations. It's too big in the bust and the corset is cinched in all the way, so i definitely need it taken in a bit. And I'm also only 5feet tall so it will need to be hemmed like mad.
Don't mind the massive circle over my face. It was super hot in there and I was a mess.

That kind of breaks my heart. It looks so good on you. Do you think you can find something off the rack in time to change, or are you going to stick with this one?

Oh, please don't hate it. I agree with lachattefatale. It's very shapely on your figure. Your FI will love this on you and you will get many compliments from your guests as well. Rock it.

@Knottie90916428 I agree with PPs! It looks lovely on you and is very figure flattering! I'm sure if you choose to stick with this gown you will rock it!

@Knottie90916428 - Oh my gosh, what is not to love?! That dress is gorgeous and you look fabulous in it! It shows off your incredible body and the color of the dress really compliments you well.
What about it don't you like?
Have you tried getting all dolled up with hair and makeup and accessories similar to what you want to look like on your wedding day and then trying it on? Doing something like that can make a big difference in how you see yourself.
Re: Show us your dresses!
This is my gorgeous dress! We're having a very small ceremony and this was just what I had in mind.
