Christine, its funny, I've been asking FI for opinions too and showing him ones I like, he does not like anything too poufy, but he does tell me to get whatever I want, and he loves a couple of my favorites, so at least I know we're on the same page. He hasn't seen this one yet.
Jules, the one I tried on didn't have a ribbon, it comes seperate. I will probably try it both ways, I like ribbons too. I love the red ribbon, I just don't think I would like it in blue or fuschia, I considered changing my wedding colors to aqua & red, so I could get the red ribbon.
I really didn't think I'd like the dress, because it seems very plain in the picture, but when you put it on it has pearls and sequins all over it, it sparkled so pretty!
I'm obsessed with dresses, I just need to pick one. I'm going to make another appointment tomorrow at the local bridal salon, theres a certain maggie sottero dress I really want to try.
