OK, please forgive the fact that I look horrible in these pics, they were taken on Monday --off from work, and I don't even have lip gloss on !!!!!
I look crazy, but at least you can see the dress on a woman with some meat, LOL (I always tease how the model is so skinny, lol)

BTW, I'm trying Shamma's way of posting pics, so I put them all up on Shutterfly after downloading from my digi-cam.

I'll try first with some closeups of the headpiece I really like and am considering. It costs $145.
Is that average????

Here we go:

Mistyeyed, thanks for the clarification. It covers your hair? I will not wear it waterfall b/c I want my hairstyle to show. (The things vanity makes us do . . . .

Thanks again everyone !!!!

Marcebella: The train of the dress is Chiffon.
The veil in the pic is regular tule.
I am looking for a Chiffon Cathedral veil to match the train. If I can't find one, I'll have it made. I want it to flow perfectly w/the train

BTW, the pictures show the dress in IVORY, I'm getting it in white.

Liz, I think your dress is beautiful, and you certainly look very happy in it. Congrats!
One question - did you order it from Lynbrook Bridal? I think I recognize the store, but I can't really tell from the photos.

JUST WANTED EVERYONE TO KNOW:

Once again, Shamma, is being the wonderful person that she is. She had a headpiece (pictured above) that looks similar to mine, and offered it to me to wear so I wouldnt have to buy one.

I WOULD BE SOOOOO HONORED !!!!!!!!

Hi Liz!

I haven't been on the board in a while, been very busy.

But glad I was on to see your pictures. You look absolutely stunning. I love the way the dress and veil flow. You make a beautiful bride.

Shamma, You are a sweetheart!

Now you have something BORROWED, Liz.
