thanks ladies. I am going back and forth between being excited about it and wanting to get a different dress...so the compliments are good to hear.

Here I go, complete with a-line crinoline and floor length veil

Haven't decided on jewelry yet ... or shoes, I'm barefoot in the pic, LOL

me - took off the feather pin from waist & beading from top corner.

Don't mind the 'duh' expression and messy hair, just piled it all up in a clip.

Boy it's hot in the dress, don't know how I'll manage the JULY heat!

This thread is awesome! Everyone looks so much better than the models! What's with all their weird poses?

 

I can't wait to come back with me vs. model. I have just started looking for dress ideas today. I feel behind!

[erinleigh]

My turn! I just bought my dress on the weekend. I don't think I even need alterations!

OMG!! I love this thread it is too funny!!! Every one of you look better in your dress than the models...I think it is because on a model it is just a pretty girl in a white dress, but you guys look like beautiful brides, just glowing with happiness!

I think it's that...along with the fact that clothes look better on figures that do not resemble hangers. lmao I mean, geez..clearly, the wholeskin and bones model thing doesn't do a wedding gown justice! Even most petite women have some kinda meat on their bones. I don't know why they do that with the models..maybe to force you to focus on the dress, not whose wearing it? I dunno.

I finally have a me vs the model photo.

First the model...I really didn't like this dress online

But then I tried it on and loved it...it is still a bit snug but I am working on it.

Ignore the sour face...I was talking to my sister and the hair is a bit insane...it was raining...I swear!
