I looooove this dress!!

I will have to see if I can find any pics of mine...

I was just thinking the same thing! And I love the flowers.

Aww, thanks, ladies! I was actually "meh" about it until the wedding itself. I got it from Target.com on clearance before we were even quite engaged. I'd gotten a MOH dress from Mizrahi's Target line and knew I wouldn't need alterations, so I couldn't pass up the deal. And in the end I did love it; I just hadn't had the confirmation experience of comparing it to other ones in a bridal shop.

I adored my flowers, though. I didn't put that bouquet down except to eat. ;D

This was mine, but I had a pale blue sash....

Since he hasn't officially put a ring on it (we are designing the ring) I get to dream through the powers of the internet. My entire wedding is planned already, trusty Pinterest has this documented!

This is the dress I am lusting over


I'm short and busty and we are doing a country/outdoorsy style wedding.

This is mine, too, except I had a dark brown sash tied in the front and off to the side with a brooch.

[darby]

Everyone looks so beautiful! :Y:

Here's mine.

And one of the back because the detailing above the train is what I fell in love with:

[stephlove]

[sugardumpling]

[sugardumpling]

i hope this works.

[winofairy]

Everyone looks amazing in their dresses! Such lovely brides!

Here is my wedding dress....

[moonlight]

Purchased in 2003. Loved it, though if I was getting married today I think I'd go for a different style Our tastes all evolve though!



This is what the dress actually looked like (but reversed for some reason)...

[bluesecrets]

We had a bit of an untraditional route, but I loved it. Wish the sky would have had some visibility though. That window is supposed to look out onto Manhattan - we were on the 70th floor of the building.

[kellikans]

I LOVED my dress...

[theycallmeliz]

My fave pics are not from the wedding...



This pic kind of shows you the detail of the back of the dress which had light aqua embroidery which flared out towards the bottom and buttons all down the back.

Your dress is really pretty! Definitely something I would have tried on if I saw it at a bridal salon when I was gown shopping.

[InBetweenDays]

Gorgeous dresses everyone! We had a beach wedding (almost 11 years ago!) so my dress was fairly casual.

[dr.girlfriend]

The most you'll get of me is my butt, LOL.



Here's the detail on the front of the dress:

[treedimensional]

My gosh tarheels, you are so lovely.

[aliciar6]

from my first wedding....still trying to sell that blasted dress.

[marissa]

I hope these don't go huge.

This is the back of my dress.


Me and my oldest son. Josh was 6 at the time.

Helllooo, 2006. Styles sure have changed lol. Every single wedding I've been to in the past year has been a lace mermaid....regardless of whether the bride's body would look better in a different style, which is sort of sad I think that Pinterest has caused its own Stepford bridal culture.

I think styles cycle in and out. In 2004 I felt like the only person who didn't have a strapless dress. Wrap waists and corset lacing were all the rage (I did have both of those). In the 90s it was all about puffy sleeves and mega lace. In a few years it will be something else. It's part of the fun. ;D
