I've been worrying for months that I picked the wrong dress & I didn't know if it was b/c its so much fun to look at all of your dresses or if something is really wrong with my choice. When I tried on the dress today I wasn't in love. Don't get me wrong-- I do love the dress but I just am thinking that its not the dress to make me look fantastic. Please take a look at the pics and let me know what you think about it's style and me. Keep in mind that I'm short (5'1")-- does the dress make me look cut off? Thanks so much for all of your honesty and opinions in advance! Love ya-- H Were you wearing heels when you took the pictures? I must admit that, in the pics, it does make you look slightly "cut off", in your words! I am wearing the Reese dress myself but am def wearing heels, even though I will be in the sand! A great tip I got on this site was The Solemates and that could let you wear heels no matter what the terrain you get married on! Good luck!! PS.. I also bought a dress online which was soooo much cheaper and I though I was great and saving my parents money etc, however, when it arrived, I hated it!! Ended up costing them even more in the long run! Don't wear something if it doesn't feel right!

I also got mine in Ivory, which really surprised me, as I had been adamant that I would have a white dress that would set off my tan etc, but as soon as I had on the Reese, I thought that it would look cheaper in white, somehow, if that makes sense? I think it looks a lot classier in the Ivory. You look stunning it your dress, just hope to look half as good! xxx

Funny thing is that when the sales lady showed it to me I told her "no way"! I thought it looked awful on the hanger. Once she convinced me to try it on I was completely surprised! Funny how that works out. I've bought the Reese dress too!! Like you, I wasn't that fussed for it when I seen it on the hanger and it was just one of a big bundle, but that all changed when I had it on, just like you!! Can't wait to wear it!

Me and ryan are getting married at Azul Sensatori on 9th April 2010. Ever since we booked, we've been checking Trip Advisor daily and checking out any photos we can find. We recently found an excellent blog site of a lovely american couple who'd got married there and had a wedding video made. It gives you a great idea of what your wedding day will look like etc! Whilst you always have an idea, it's always better to see it in the flesh, so to speak! blog.bcdigitalmedia.com/?tag=azul-sensatori Would def suggest you check it out. Especially the last one, the wedding day video, as it gives you the most in terms of the actual wedding day itself!

Just looked through your wedding photos! Was almost in tears! It's just how I want my wedding to be, but with sand instead of grass as an aisle!! :-)

I'm Marie! Got engaged to Ryan on Valentines day!! Getting married at Azul Sensatori, Riviera Maya, Mexico on April 9th, 2010. Can't wait!! Would love to see pictures of everone's dresses!
