Just for fun...post pics of your dream gown

If $$$ were not an issue, or if you've already gotten married but could go back, what gown would you get...

This was one of my 'runner-ups' and if I didn't go for the a-line look, I would have loved this Monique Lhullier 'Soulmate'.

Steven Yearick. I tried this dress on but it was 4K. Heavily beaded and HEAVY to wear AND it DOES cover my tattoo on my back!

It would have looked SOOOOO killer too. the sample was way too small and even though they would have charged me much less, I couldnt guarantee a weight loss to fit into it.

I've seen pics of your gown - something tells me you'll look killer in that one too

Re: Just for fun...post pics of your dream gown

Tried the 1st one on and didn't want to take it off...until I saw the price tag!!!

The 2nd one is the one I wanted or at least had in mind....until I got vetoed out by EVERYONE on having a red dress.

1st is Justina McCaffrey

2nd is Justin Alexander

3rd one I might buy...still very much debating.

Me too... I have to say, if $$$ was not an issue, I STILL would have picked the dress I had.

I love my gown as well, and was really happy with my choice, but if I was going for a different look (fitted) I would have loved the Soulmate dress (which is actually offered on Bride Power for a very reasonable price).

Re: Just for fun...post pics of your dream gown

I was extremely lucky because I got my dream gown. It was a Monique Lhullier. Coco skirt and Jacquiline top. I only wished I was able to get it in the ivory but my mom wanted me in white so that was what I had to get. It did not matter what gown I chose, so long as it was in the whitest shade of white. I think I look better in ivory but since my mom was paying I had to do white. I still loved my dress.

Re: Just for fun...post pics of your dream gown

I wore my dream gown. I tried on so many dresses in my price range. My gown was WAYYYYY out of my range, but I just had to have it. I really couldn't afford it but I made it work.

Here's my dress:

I honestly love mine so much. Sometimes I look at other sites/designers and I still love mine the best so far!

Re: Just for fun...post pics of your dream gown

HOnestly I love my gown....my dream would be to wear a gown with lots of work on it BUT since I am petite that could never work for me...maybe my dream includes being taller to wear one of those gowns...I also love the gowns with the pickups! Like that one Kevin Costner's wife wore...but it made me look like a girl playing dress up!

Re: Just for fun...post pics of your dream gown

Here is my gown and it is my DREAM gown

It's an Amsale and it was out of my budget but I didn't care, I had to have it. Now I am trying to cut the $$ somewhere else. Oh well, I LOVE THIS DRESS!!!!!
