Red face Went to look at wedding dresses today :)

So I found two tht I liked one more than the other, but I didn't make a commitment, I'm going back in september to put a down on them then after 60 days (nov?) I will order it with the size I'm at which won't need too many alterations in January. BUT on the bright side I liked how I looked in them despite my weight, so goodness forbid I don't lose any Id still feel good, but of course I plan to keep on losing! Here's some pictures!!

Here's my top dress with a champagne sash but without a petticoat, still debating to have it taken up some or leave it longer, I have a calf tattoo that would like to be seen




Here's without sash (which I like the sash) but with a petticoat




And here's my 2nd choice the reason it's my 2nd is it doesn't come in anymore ivory which makes it a different color than my shoes, and I love my shoes....




And for the giggles here's a dress a lot of you liked but it wasn't enough yanno??






Yay opinions????

I love the first one!!! And I love this sash thing that's been happening with a lot of dresses - definitely hope that's in style when I get married!

First one with no petticoat is my favorite, too. If you shorten it , it will change the appearance and the way it hangs. It is perfect, now.

Thankyou midwife! I definitely like the sash, and yes musicalastronaut the sash trend is nice which I didn't think id like but it really helps define the waist a lot!

The first dress is actually my wedding dress! We are getting married in July. It was a tight size 16 but since losing 35 lbs it is probably a size 10. I added buttons down the back zipper, a sweetheart neckline, and am not doing the vest. I also chose a champagne sash that I am tying into a bow to the side. I love love love my dress. I think you should get it hemmed a bit though. But even if you don't you look amazing!! Cheers to good taste.

You know I was thinking about Adding buttons down the back as well, and I didn't know we could make it sweet heart but I like that idea! And yeah no jacket for me I didn't like it at all with the jacket >.> can I ask how much were those alterations for you and did you go thru db for the alterations?

Poof is nice but I think you look slimmer without the petticoat, either way it is a beautiful dress and you will be a gorgeous bride.
