Thank you all for voting on my wedding dress short list. I ended up going with something of a mash-up of the dresses I posted before. I really wanted something with some coverage over the shoulders, and this one came with a little lace bolero jacket that I will wear with it the whole time. Also, it's kind of hard to image with these pictures, but I think a sash will go really well with it.
It was a sample dress, which meant I got to take it home right then rather than ordering it in my size. It will need a major hem, or course, and to be reduced in the bust, of course, but other than that it won't need too much alternation. Even though they are typically cheaper, I had kind of given up on sample dresses since they are mostly in sizes that are way too large for me, but I got lucky with this one. It was the last one of many, many that I tried on at a point when I thought I might have to settle for something I thought was just ok. Then I found this one and I just love it!

Happy you found one you feel lovely in! Looks gorgeous!
Wow, looks fantastic! I almost want to get married again, just to get a chance at choosing something so beautiful. All the best!
Gorgeous! I'm so glad you found something you love!
Thanks, All!
BFF went with me and was the perfect shopping companion. She was honest, but knew what I was into and didn't try to push me towards styles that aren't me. She likes really different styles for herself--big ball gowns--that I think are beautiful but don't really suit my personality and shape. I can't wait for her to get married so I can help her pick out one of the giant-ass fluffy numbers I had to pass over.
Yeah!!! Pretty choice :)
Thanks!
