The third one is may absolute choice. I really love it. It's so simple but elegant-looking!

I actually went to the store yesterday and tried it on and loved it.  I have one more bridal shop to hit tomorrow and then its decision time but I am leaning towards that 3rd one above.  The others were not in the store.  For me its a ceremony and reception dress so it has to fit both bills.  I was surprised how well it fit and how comfortable it was - I can definitely see myself in it all night!

Hi Girls - Have any of you looked into Amsale? She's got a whole collection of little white dresses: http://www.amsale.com/lwd/index.shtml

I absolutely fell in love with this dress, but it didn't feel quite "bridal" enough for me: http://www.oscardelarenta.com/?folderId=/collections/bridal/spring2011#lookId=5&

I love these two dresses below!  The bottom one looks like it may have pockets which really goes with my laid back beach wedding.  I will have to add this to the growing list of things to try on.

Is this BCBG? I have been watching a similiar one on Ebay.  How does it look in person?

Is anyone wearing their wedding dress again for their AHR? My mother is adamant that I wear it again so people can see it. lol. I would love to wear it again, but I don't want to feel silly.

 

I am looking for a short white dress for the rehearsal dinner. There are so many amazing dresses in this thread!

Here is mine. The wedding day is one of the most important and most memorable days of our life. I love Purple color so I bought Purple color dress from ellamaal shop. This one shoulder designer prom dress Sand will set the stage for a perfect night. Sexy one shoulder dress with rushed woven style bodice and ruffled rosette strap with form fitted bodice and flowing skirt with back train

Yes I am wearing my dress again for the AHR. I don't think you should feel silly. You are the bride whether it is your actually wedding day or not!
