holy cow it triple posted...sorry! don't know what's up with my computer this morning!

It's been weird on this end too- I sent about 50 copies of one FM to HelenZ this morning- I kept thinking it wasn't going through but it was the whole time- very weird!!!

what's your instinct so far? Are you leaning towards one or the other yet? I'm just excited cuz you're using the same dress!

If you did navy or wine, what color sash would you use, you think?

well since i seen the pics in both colors- its hard to choose. i was thinking just doing one color b/c i think the 2 tone might draw too much attention to the tummy area & 2 of my girls have a little heavy so i thought it would draw too much attention. what do u think?

The dresses are really pretty. Wine is a very pretty color. I think it would be fine to wear that color in June.

I don't know if that's necessarily true- for one thing, the sash makes the waist look smaller...and the girls could wear a tummy tuck girdle thingie to help out...I think the object of a sash is to really minimize the waist, which is very flattering on anyone!!

So funny-- I am getting married in July and have the same dresses and I wad thinking of using the color wine also. It is the only color I think would look good with it, Plus the flowers would make it pop soooooo much

I love the wine color, and agree that it would be better to keep it one color if some of your BMs are heavier--that sounds like it would be more flattering. The dress is beautiful, and I don't think it's too dark for a summer wedding!
