I love your dress! Really beautiful! It is something like I was looking for (I am looking for an off the shoulder dress). Would you mind telling me who the designer is? Thanks!

Re: does anyone NOT have a strapless wedding gown??

I would get so frustrated dress shopping since 99.9% of the wedding dresses out there are strapless/sleeveless.

But I did finally find mine...and can't wait to wear it!! Just 20 lbs. to go...

Re: does anyone NOT have a strapless wedding gown??

The sample of my dress was strapless, but we had the designer add off the shoulder straps to it. Strapless wasn't even an option for me and if the designer (or seamstress) couldn't/wouldn't add off the shoulder straps, it was immediately eliminated. I was a bit of a snob about it.

I get all blotchy on my chest when I'm nervous, so I KNEW I didn't want a strapless gown. I tried on dresses with a bateau neckline, and fell in love with my gown.

Your dress is stunning - so simple and elegant. I get blotchy too, and I never thought of that!

Mine is off the shoulder, not strapless. Here is a back view of mine and a front view of one with the same style skirt...

Mine had Cap sleeves. I could wear a strapless, so uncomfortable.
