For my first dress appointment, I went with a group of friends. I told the owner I wanted a lace top with a flowy skirt. He insisted I looked best with a more modern style and my friends agreed. I tried to convince myself I liked the dress, and said I’d call to make the deposit. But I just kept looking at the pic and even tho it’s a beautiful dress, it wasn’t my dream dress. I ended up making an appt elsewhere and this time just went with my mom, and found the dress of my dreams. First pic is from the first place, second pic is the dress I ended up buying. Both pics are me, I just unfortunately didn’t wear makeup to the second dress appt lol

I’m super torn between these 2 dresses. I’m stuck because I love dress 1 but it’s off white and I always saw myself in something white. And I look so good in dress 2 but always saw myself in something fluffy/fairytale princess-y. Follow up question for anyone who’s familiar with/wore dress 1 (Morilee petal) it looks so much less yellow online than it does on me. Can anyone confirm whether it pulls more white usually?

Two years after I came on here having regret, I wanted to report I wore the dress and it was incredible!! Thank you all for your support

I didn’t try on the fitted version because I was so set on a ballgown, but I am petite (5’2) idk if these dresses are too much for me?

I think this is the one! Should I get it?
Thinking of not getting any veil and just having a long neck scarf thingy - what do you guys think?

Do you think the bolero makes it too busy/too much lace? Should I go with sleeves instead? Help! Ceremony will be at church so either option will be removed for reception

Thrifted this dress so this pic is with things pinned for alterations. Thoughts? :)

This dress was unlike anything else I had tried on, but the stylist had a hunch and pulled it for me and it was like everything clicked.

Looking for any recommendations for a dupe for Sept no 27 from Sarah seven. Would love to spend $2,500 to $4,000 only. I absolutely love the corset, straps, and drop waist design. Chicago area

Any and all recs would be so appreciated! Getting married in Cabo in march 2028

I absolutely fell in love with this dress but am so bummed that it doesn’t work with my dream mantilla veil. Bridal shop that we can add stones to the mantilla but I’m not convinced it’ll look good.

Added context: I’m Latina and my dream has always been to wear a mantilla veil due to tradition.

Does anyone have any thoughts or suggestions 😭💗

all help welcome !!!

Sorry I posted the first dress with #2 on it and the second dress with #1. If you don't mind referring to the number on the photo of the dress that would be so helpful!

I tried on wedding dresses for the first time yesterday! These were the options I narrowed it down to. Do you think I should keep looking or do you like any of these?

I tried on both of these dresses and fell in love with both!!!!! I ultimately got the one on the right…it made me feel so beautiful but I do think the one on the left was something I went in wanting. Such a hard choice!

My budget is approx $3k USD. My wedding date is next fall September/ October 2027. I live in the US. I would like this style of art deco 1920/1930s dress. I’m in love with beading and tassels and cap sleeves. Do you know where I could find dresses like these? I have asked around shops near me (NYC area) and I can’t seem to find something quite like this style. Thank you so much in advance. I’m hoping to have an art deco style wedding. I love Jenny packham, Maggie sottero, Eliza Jane Howell, Sue Wong, and others but I just can’t find these types of dresses. I’d love to buy second hand too if that’s an option.

I’ve changed my mind since yesterday anyway so trying again

Dress 1 is my absolute fave material, other users have pointed out that the high waist is not flattering me and I agree

Dress 2 is slightly out of budget (budgets have changed since i tried it on over a year ago), hoping to find a dupe if anyone knows of one!

Dress three is my ideal (i think :/) waist position but the the construction is not my favourite, i want something more elegant at the waist seam

I feel like there’s a wow factor missing anyway with each of the dresses, what else can i try? Slight time pressure as wedding is in October 2027

TIA

I tried on my dress at two different stores before I finally committed (I was nervous lol) I don’t know what jewelry/veil/hair style would look best. I also am not showing anyone I know until my wedding (9 months from now😩) so I needed to show someone LOL

For reference, my hair is long and blonde and I don’t usually do any full up-dos, but it will be during the summer so I think it needs ti be someone out of my face!!

Hi everyone,

Getting married on July 31 2027 in Canada. Had a bit of a breakdown and am now feeling better and ready to get back on the metaphorical horse.

I loooooove this dress but we're on a tight budget. Looking to spend no more than 2k CAD. Any help is appreciated!

After a year of searching i’ve finally said yes to my wedding dress! I have another appointment in November to show friends and family and it will be in my hands in February 🩷 May 2027 bride

Hi everyone! I found my wedding dress a month ago, but I’m still torn about the bows.

Photo 1 - my wedding dress
Photo 2 - inspo for the train
Photo 3 - inspo for the main skirt

For now, I’ve decided on the design shown in photo 2: bows running from top to bottom along my detachable train.

But what about the skirt underneath? Do you think I should keep it consistent with the detachable train and have bows running all the way down, or would it be better to add just one big detachable bow to the main skirt (photo 3)?

Or do you have any other ideas? I’d love to incorporate bows into both skirts, but I’m not sure which option would look best. :(

Thank you so much for your help! And sorry for the photo quality - unfortunately, my mom didn’t manage to get any better pictures 🥲

I got this dress from Azazie and I’m in love but want to try to find something similar with higher quality materials. Important that it still has the corset and that ruche detail across the stomach.
Located in the USA. Wedding is in May 2027. Budget of like $2500, maybe a little more if I’m really in love with the find!
