Shello ladies. I had my appointment at the Bridal Reflections salon in Massapequa and found my gown. I thought I was going to have a bad experience because the bridal consultant wasn't very experienced, but she still managed to pick out a gown that is just perfect for my garden wedding. I have the pics in my album.
It was the 2nd dress I tried on and I fell in love with it as soon as I saw myself in the mirror. I can't wait to wear it on my wedding day.
Do you think I should have my hair up or down with this gown? I could use some input so please share your thoughts. Below are some pics from a hair and make-up trial I had.
Or maybe something like this:

I love it! It looks so pretty! I think you go either way with your hair. I like it in the bun maybe with the veil right on top with a clip.

Re: I found 'THE ONE' .... I'm SO PSYCHED!!!
Thanks so much for all the input everyone. I'm so happy to get such positive feedback about the gown and the make-up. The last hair pic isn't even mine - it's from another bride, but it's a style that I am definitely considering.
My make-up was done by SADA. She is AMAZING!!! I can't wait to see her again for my e-pics make-up.
Many of you made a good point about having my hair up. The back of the gown has a lot of detail and I really want to accentuate that with a classic updo. I just hope my face doesn't look too round with an updo (I have very round cheeks and a big banana smile).
I also went to the Bridal Reflections in NYC on 5th Avenue since my office is in the city. If anyone happens to go there you MUST aske for AMBER - she was beyond helpful and oh so patient.
One more thing crossed off the Wedding To Do List. YAY!!!
Hasta manana chicas. Buenas Noches.

it is beautiful, i love the back and the bead work.
i think to go with the elegance of the dress- a very chic and simple up do (like the ones pictured) would be perfect and really go with the look of the gown and you will end up looking SO sleek and elegant-- CONGRATS!!! i love it, good luck!!!

I vote for hair up, like in the second picture you posted (the black and white one). I think it'll go with your dress, which is lovely!

Your dress is beautiful and it looks great on you. I love it.
I would wear your hair up. An updo goes perfect with that dress very classic and elegant, plus you have a gorgeous face.

YAY - more LIW buddies!
Here is a collective ......
<<<<< THANK YOU EVERYBODY >>>>>
and in Spanish: <<< GRACIAS A TODOS >>>>
... for giving your opinions and for the lovely compliments, which totally made my day. I am definitely going to have my hair up on my wedding day. I'm not sure if I should wear a flower in my hair or my tiara which I already have. I'll see how both look at my hair trial and then decide which one complements my gown best.
My next decision is BM gowns, although I'm already leaning towards the Jim Hjelm tea length dresses which are so beautiful this season. I can't believe that my wedding planning is literally falling into place with little or few problems.
