Opinions wanted

Looking for completely honest opinions ladies. I am so not the woman to put on a dress and know that 'it' is the one. I have tried on over 2 dozen and I have found a bunch that are nice. I've been eyeing this dress but have some concerns. I will be having an outdoor ceremony and reception at The Riviera. For those who are unfamiliar with the decor, it has a very rustic feel to the room.
I'm wondering if this dress is more for a black tie affair.

I will be the odd person out and say I don't like it. I don't think the gathering in the front is very flattering.

I don't think there is such a thing as being 'too' formal on your wedding day. If you love it, and that's the only thing holding you back, go for it!

It's perfect! I think the fact that it is chiffon makes it even more suitable for an outdoor wedding with a rustic feel. It seems that you can already picture yourself in it!

I think the fact that its chiffon makes it Ok for black tie or a bit less formal.

I think if you're the bride - you cant really dress down, as it were, any way.

If you keep coming back to the dress - than I think that is your answer.

Good luck and great choice of dress!

I think it is a very beautiful dress. But I agree with the other ladies that maybe you should try some more on if you are not sure. Also don't doubt your self if you have been eyeing this dress maybe it is the one. Again it cannot hurt to try one more

I love it. I too am getting married outside on a Saturday and my dress is just as detailed. If you love it then I say go for it. Best of luck trying on dresses.

Re: Opinions wanted

Thanks for the positive and negative feedback. I wanted all honests opinions. I guess it will all come down to how I feel once I put it on. Regardless of that, I may just go try on one or two more before making any decisions.
