Wedding Dress?

kaete · Oct 7, 2008

Okay, I know there are about 60,000 wedding threads right now... but I'm feeling girly today, so I'm making another one

I know a lot of people are traditional/superstitious/whatever about showing their dress before the big day, but I'm not one of them. I'd love to see some dresses! So if you're not against it, post a picture of your dress! Or, post a picture of you in your dress if you're already married

I'll start..

This one's mine: http://www.edenbridals.com/2254-ttts-p-1171.html

Here's Jess's: http://www.beachcomberbride.com/wedd...82_1_.jpg.html

They definitely reflect how different we are

But hey, they're both taffeta, so they sort of go together, right? Hahaha.

OMG, Kaete! yours is just beautiful!! I love the "folksy" look of it, very Joni Mitchell

Jess' is a little more sophisticate, not my style at all

I wish I had a digital pic of mine, I loved that dress

Your dress is stunning Kaete. Here is the one I'll be wearing walking up the aisle in May 09:

I'm wearing it with the straps as I don't want to feel conscious of my shoulders!

Wow, you all have such beautiful dresses! Emrldsky (sorry if I spelled your user name wrong, my internet is having issues so it's not popping up for me to copy and paste!), you are beautiful in your dress!

Kaete, both of those dresses are gorgeous, you two and your wedding will be completely stunning!

Since you asked, here's mine.

It's kind of a funky pose, but it's the best detail picture that I have available to me here at work!

Wow that is so pretty!

This is mine. I have pictures of me in it from when I tried it on but I don't want to post them here incase my fiance goes snooping. If anyone wants to see them, pm me. The fuchsia is not as bright as it looks in the picture.

The front. The sleeves are removable and I haven't decided whether I am going to wear them or not.

Wow! I love your dress

This is the dress I wore at our 2006 wedding. It was the Trina with no beading a corseted bodice.

Mine really could have been sized better

The lady who altered it didn't even do a final fitting! I probably should have just bought one my size but I was figuring it looked alright and I had no intentions of spending more than $100 on a dress anyway! Then when I tried it on again it was still a little baggy, boo.

Ohhh, I love that, especially with the straps! I like the look of strapless gowns but they definitely don't look right on me. I tried on a few but I just looked like I got out of the shower and wrapped a towel around me!

Here's mine from 3 years ago (3 years ago tomorrow to be exact!
