Show us your wedding dress!

I'm a fan of the corset back because it does give a little bit of wiggle-room in terms of weight-gain/loss...I have 4 days of good eating and drinking, I will need it!!!  Plus to me, it just has a romantic look to it...

 

And I always knew I'd be a Maggie bride and most of her dresses are corset-backs

OMG!  March 14th is right around the corner - I cannot wait to see this dress!!!!  

 

I found my dress the 2nd time out....nothing that I was looking for.  It's a Paloma Blanca #4115.  I recently started to doubt my choice until I saw some of the girls on here with similar dress styles who recently tied the knot which put my mind & heart at ease.  I will repost a picture.

You're so sweet to ask... Second fitting is not until March 14! It's going to look like a completely different dress, I want it done now LOL Tell me your progress, and remind me of your dress choice?

So... I posted a couple weeks ago I had decided to order this (which turned out to be a discontinued Maggie Sottero- Cassia):

 

 

 

Then someone convinced me to go to try on some similar styles and make sure I liked it.  And I did like it, but just didn't give me that "this is it!" feeling.  So I figured while I'm there, let me try some different styles to see if there's anything I might like, and me, who swore I didn't want anything strapless, or anything "foofy", fell in LOVE with this:

 

 

Like seriously, was dreaming about it all that night!  And they had it, off the rack, in my size and in ivory, which matches his linen suit PERFECTLY!  You can't help but think it was meant to be =)  The plan is to take in the top ever so slightly, shorten the length a bit (for sandals/barefoot in the sand), and shorten or just totally remove the train (it's partially tucked under in the photo).
