So the other night I had a wedding nightmare that FH and I decided to do a 'first look' before the ceremony. In my dream, FH saw my dress and told me that he wished I had spent more money on my dress. (Which is not something FH would ever say! lol) Oh, and keep in mind that FH always said that he pictures me in something simple, even like a sheath. (My body type however would not look good in that.)
I bought my dress last year when we were planning a July 2010 tent wedding in a field. I thought it fit the location perfectly and it had everything that I was looking for in a dress. Simple, pretty, not overwhelming, sparkly, sweetheart neckline, lace-up back, and a dropped waist. I look silly in ball gowns! I had found my dress on the clearance rack of DB and I was super happy. Every time I tried on the dress, I didn't want to take it off. I think I've worn it at least 5 hours between store visits!
Fast forward to now. We are getting married in the beginning of May, in a gorgeous, modern reception hall. My dress is hanging in my closet and I haven't been able to try it on since changing venues. I'm so worried that the hall will overpower my dress! Is it too simple? Will I look out of place? Should I add stuff to my dress? Should I change my dress completely? I'm so confused!
FH told me that I should try on the dress again with his mom and get her opinion. He wants me to go look at more dresses to be sure.
I love this dress, but I hate having 2nd thoughts about it! FH really does not like the fact that I had a nightmare about this either!
