I think that it would be a no no to tell her how to make the dress better. I think you should just let the whole dress thing go. DOnt talk about or think about it untill the day of the wedding. Buy the way when and where are you getting married?

(She always values my opinion) We talked about it yesterday, but les than 2 min worth.

snapshots of brides in their dress are nothing like what they look like on the wedding day. Just browse through the thread of all of the wedding dresses. There isn't that WOW factor. but, then when you see the actual pictures it's so different. You will be blown away on the day of. Seeing a picture is nothing. | |

Thank you all for the advice, and I'm not "nuts" about this anymore.
I guess by wanting to help her with the dress addons, I was just trying to help in all aspects of the wedding.
EDIT: The funny thing is that she wants me to help her pick out some of the accessories :P | |

I'm confused- she knows you saw it and doesn't care or you saw it and she doesn't know?
Either way- I don't think one snapshot really matters. I look at pictures of me in my dress pre-wedding and I don't look anywhere close to the same way I looked on the wedding day. After- it's just a dress right. :)
I think the way a bride looks on her wedding day is much more than what she's wearing. It's more about that glow and all the emotions she is wearing that everyone will notice first and foremost. They are her greatest accessory. The rest is just added bonuses. | |

I also do not think it will kill the wow factor. If the pict was taken before the final fitting it can look totally different. | |
