What type of Dress did you think was your dress and what was?

What type of dresses have you guys looked at? or what was your dream dress and what is your new dress??

I have been trying on Mermaids *about 15 of them* I just tried on the Hailey Page Londyn, and Love it!! I am going back on Friday to make sure it is the dress!! Just wanted a few days to think about it, because I felt like a bride when I put it on. would love to hear what you guys have experienced so far!

My favorite dress prior to this was the Davima Maggie Sottero, what a difference!

That dress is gorgeous! So unique! I thought I'd just be getting a completely straight all lace dress because I thought I hated the extra poof, but it turns out the straight styles didn't make me feel like a bride. I ended up with the Maggie Sottero Marriane so it's tight fitted at the top and then flares out at the bottom with a train I love it so much!

This is the dream dress right now but who knows when I go try on in stores! Very similar to your Hailey Paige!

Fit and flares are gorgeous. Congratulations! My mom loved me in fit and flares but I was set on a big poof dress lol. When I found my dress she was so supportive she knew it was the one too!

This is beautiful!!!! I hope this is your dress. It's just timeless.

I Tried on lots of different styles but deep down I always knew I wanted the big ball gown. As pretty as the dresses I tried on were, I didn't feel like a complete bride. And I went for something completely different then anything I saw online. When I found my dress I did. i couldn't stop crying. I was overjoyed and I hope you have the same experience.

Rcotter90- Check out Wedding Plaza in Floral Park for Essense of Australia. That's where I got mine (granted it was during an Essense Trunk Show) but they still had quite a few regularly stocked!

Helens has essence of Australia too I think!

Re: What type of Dress did you think was your dress and what was?

Thanks!!! ball gowns all the way!! hah I agree, the other dresses I felt like I looked great, just not for me as a bride. :)

Thanks girls! I was definitely planning on going to Helen's!

Re: What type of Dress did you think was your dress and what was?

i swore i wanted a big poofy, blingy dress. i put a few on and they did nothing for me. The girl in macys made me try a fit and flare and that was it from there. When i went to burton i kept saying 'no lace!' i tried on my dress and fell in love. Carole at burton turned to me and said 'so you dont like lace?' lol. A little bling, a little lace lol

Thats is breathtaking!!

I always wanted a big poofy giant dress, and thats what I ended up with. I tried on every style possible to make sure I was making the right decision, but I love my dress! It really makes me feel like a bride.

What type of Dress did you think was your dress and what was?

Didn't want poof, didn't want bling. Ended up with both in some way. I say try on EVERYTHING (well, except I flat out refused satin) and see what fits your body. Ball gowns fit nicely, but I looked like a cupcake and very young (I'm only 5') so I went with a fit and flare.

Re: What type of Dress did you think was your dress and what was?

Same here with the shape. I'm 5'3', busty, and can lose a few pounds to help that waist definition a bit. As I expected, poofy dresses looked terrible on me. I knew *exactly* what I wanted in my head. My mom did everything to talk me out of it, but I bought a clearance mermaid plain dress at Estelle's and am crocheting the lace that will go over it. I tried on beautiful dresses that matched what I wanted on paper, but the moment I put my slip dress on, I was beyond excited.

As a kid I always thought it would a Cinderella dress for me though. I still love those dresses, but they just don't work on my body.
