I don't know how to piece it all together

So I am having a really, really hard time invisioning how everything will come together on the day of the wedding. I am second guessing my hair and the jacket I bought.

Can you guys look at my dress in my album and suggest some kind of jacket to go with it? I bought a lace 3/4 sleeve jacket, but I don't know if it looks okay with the dress. I feel like the dress has so much going on, that if I add a jacket to it, it may take away from it.

I also HATE my arms, and I am really worried about having to show them off. :( Can someone please help and suggest something?

so sorry you are having a hard time
my only advice re/; the arms (same problem..lol)
is the VEIL and HAIR. have someone always make sure your veil and hair cover your arms. it does wonderous.
I wish i could wear a veil everyday.

Your dress is so beautiful- I would hate to see you add a jacket and lose all the beautiful detail- what if you asked the bridal shop to sew on cap sleeves- that would give you a little coverage- I am sure that your arms will look fine either way- good luck!

Your dress is beautiful! I would cover your arms with the veil also if you feel that self conscious. I think a jacket might take away a little.

does it cover the back of your dress? my jacket just touched the top of it so i was okay - didn't take away any detail work.

my hair is going to be half up half down , with a side part and a small bouffant in the back. Almost like the Carrie Underwood hairstyles.
I think I want my hair to be more vintage though, with some victory rolls in it.? I don't know.


Maybe I should just suck it up and get over the whole arm thing?

Thank you ladies. I may just get a small fur capelet for the weather. It is December 6, and right now if things stay this cold I am going to need something!

IMO i would not cover the dress w/ a jacket, it is just so pretty! i agree maybe the veil would be better. but.. all in all, feel confident, you will make a beautiful bride!!

you can always get a faux fur wrap if you are really self conscious ( which I don't think you have anything to worry about,)

a lace jacket IMO will take away from the beautiful detail of your dress

Do not worry, I was worrying about the same thing and everything came together, it will come together for you and look beautiful!
