Is your wedding dresses going to be touching the floor or are you going to go 1-3 inches above the ground? I was told wedding gowns are suppose to be 1-3 inches off the ground. I have talked to a few people and they said they have never heard of this. Can anyone please help me with this?
The bridal store I went to and that I bought my dress from said that normally they make it 1-3 inches off the ground which I am not liking at all. I never seen or heard of this before so I am suck on this and want to do the right thing so my dress looks right.
take a look at some of our beautiful 08 brides in there dress and see what they look like- if you are going to take off your heels after a while this may be one of the reasone they do that- i would question them about it again
1 to 3 inches seems a bit short to me. I would def double check that.
My dress was pre hemmed and I went for my first fitting Saturday I was not happy about my dress you could see the tip of my shoes. Today I went back with my sister to try it on again and to see what I could do about it and she took pictures of it and you can see my shoes in some of the pictures. I was told they can lower the dress but then I can't use slippers if I want cause I will walk all over my dress. I am not sure about what to do.
Trust me, you want the dress a little bit off the floor. My SIL had to pick her dress up walking down the aisle and up the altar stairs b/c she was tripping on it. My seamstress measured my dress to my toe. (in heels) I dont know about 3 inches form the floor, but def. 1 inch.
Oh, I just noticed that you said you have slipper shoes. That might be tough b/c you are already flat on the floor. People will have to see your whole shoe/slipper. If you are wearing heels, you only see the tip of your toe, not your whole foot.
You can see my shoes that I was going to wear for the wedding my fh came up with the idea of wearing ballet slippers instead which would bring the dress length down. Which it did. With the slippers you did not see my shoes with the regular shoes that I was going to wear you can see them.

Personally I'd rather be tripping over my dress than be able to see the tips of my shoes. Too short is one of my pet peeves...
JMO!
