Re: Hopefully today.......
Ok so I posted this is BHB as well but I figured I may not get too many responses so here goes:
-----Ok so yesterday I went to Bridal Reflections and totally fell in love with a Maggie Sottero Dress the 'Sylvia'. The only issue was the only sample they had came in in Diamond White and I wasn't sure if that was too white, so after trying on a different maggie made of a different material in ivory I ordered my dress in Ivory. I now realize that Ivory can look different depending on the material of the dress. How many of you girls have Ivory dresses? Idk if I should call them and ask the to hold off on ordering it (they said they put in the orders on Monday) until I decide if I want to just take the Diamond White or maybe just take my chances on the ivory. I was so excited about it but now I'm second guessing my decision like woah and going a little nuts about it....... exactly why I have been up since 5:30 am googling like crazy and can not find my dress in Ivory. I barely know if I have made any sense but I am pretty much flipping out------
I might just keep call them and order it in the diamond white which is whats pictured but I am really going back and forth on it. I actually had nightmares lol. I am pretty much at my palest at the moment so maybe after I tan this dress might look better? I keep reading that Diamond White in a Maggie Sottero is considered a light ivory so the actually Ivory may be too dark for me. Ugh I am totally bugging

It's a beautiful dress! what I did was I asked to see my designer in the same fabric in ivory. I tried on a sample that was the exact material by the exact designer, and that's how I decided on the ivory when i orderd. it's so tough not seeing the actual dress in the colors, my biggest fear still is seeing it and wishing I got white instead.
i know how you feel!!!

I can only imagine how you feel!! If I were you I would be bugging out too! You could call Bridal Reflections and explain your dilemma and ask if you could come in and see what Maggie's Ivory looks like in the fabric your dress is. They should have at least one dress to show you. This way you can see the color in person and hold it up to you so you can decide which color is right for you. Good luck!! And your dress is beautiful!!

Re: Hopefully today.......
This is why I am in love with this site..... you girls are always willing to give great advice!!! I loved the second dress in ivory but for some reason I didn't think that the ivory for the fabric of my dress may very well look different. I called like fourteen times yesterday until I realized they are closed on Sundays!!! I left a message and also emailed them. They definitely better let me come by tonight to see a maggie of the same fabric in ivory or else I'm going to flip out lol. I always thought oh well its just one day, how stressful can it be to plan? Boy was I wrong!! I just wanna feel beautiful on my day(as I am assuming all brides do) so basically the dress has to be something I am completely in love with. I keep reading about maggie materials and a lot of girls are saying that the diamond white is supposed to look good on all skin tones, at the moment I am at my palest (been hibernating lol) but I tan very well. Maybe I should hold off and get a tan(it would only take 3 or 4 consecutive days of fake and bake) to see if the diamond looks better that way? I have a feeling I may just be turning into a bridezilla............... hahahaha. I just don't want to make a huge mistake and hate my dress
