Re: Small brides!!
I'm not nearly as thin as you are, but I am 5'3' and I chose an A Line gown. The ladies at Lillettes ordered it for me in Petite.

Re: Small brides!!
I'm 5'2 and 96 lbs. I tried on mostly A-line and some ballgowns. A-lines worked the best, strapless (especially sweatheart since it gave me some shape). I have 'pick ups' on my skirt it helped give the A-line a little fuller look with out being a ballgown. I went to Kleinfelds and got a Henry Roth. The model picture is in my profile, here's me with it on.
I'm trying on a size 10 and they ordered me a 4 with tons of alterations. They actually said they only get someone my size in every 3 years!
i am shorter than all of you :) and i wont even get into my weight...
i tried on ballgowns and aline. i was surprised that i could actually pull off a ballgown, it looked pretty good... but i liked a line better, it did not make me feel as short, and it was easier to walk/ move around in...
good luck and happy shopping

Re: Small brides!!
Hi I know how you feel. I'm 5'1' - 5'2ish and 94 lbs. I already found my dress and it's a strapless a-line. I'm having it altered in the back to make it lower b/c the designer suggested to show a lot of back since I have such a small frame to make me look taller. I felt lost in a ball gown. My dress is very simple too. Try on a bunch and you'll get a feel for what you like and what looks good on you very quickly (at least I did). Let me know what you find!

Beth your dress is beautiful! I tried on a Marisa Gown on Sunday that I really like. I am going to NJ to show it to my Mom on Sunday.
Aren't cups amazing? When I tried on the dress with cups I was like, 'Hey now!' Much cheaper than surgery.

Re: Small brides!!
i tried on both halter and strapless, and strapless looked better then i thought it would. the sample was a 12 and they really had to pin it to get me to see the full effect, but it really worked. they had to order me a size 2, she said if it came in a 0 she would've ordered a 0.
my dress is a-line, the sales girl didn't even give me a ball gown
