Finally went dress shopping!!!

And I fell in love twice! I went with my mom to Theresa Bridal on Staten Island, which I highly recommend. You don't need an appt, so you can take all the time you need. And the girl was sooooo nice who helped us! I tried on like 15 dresses.

I thought I would not want to go with a traditional gown, but after trying them on I realized I want to. I think FH would want to see me in a poof gown! Which one do you think?? I am so torn between the two.

Re: Finally went dress shopping!!!

They are both very pretty. I personally do not like the pick up on the back...that's just my opinion on myself. I am a shorty so I don't think that looks good on me.

Re: Finally went dress shopping!!!

They're both so pretty. I love the low back on the second one. so sexy. They're both very pretty though. You didn't feel more comfortable in one? Like did one make you feel like yourself (if that makes sense)??!

I think I was leaning more towards the first one. It actually looked better on than in the picture. I love the second one too though, but it was much heavier, and for a july wedding?? But both my sister and my mom loved the second one! SOOOOO confused! I think I need to go back by myself lol.

Re: Finally went dress shopping!!!

First one is something i would love to wear but this is me. The second one is pretty but I am not a poofy gal. I would sit on it for a week and really imagine your wedding day and you walking down the aisle with that dress on.

That is what i am doing currently!

Re: Finally went dress shopping!!!

i like the first one...it's very elegant. You can always get a fancy bustle for the reception to make it sort of look like #2.

Re: Finally went dress shopping!!!

I like the first one - you're long and lean - I think it would be stunning on you!!!
