Hi everyone

I found this dress and its probably my favorite dress out of the top 3 dresses I like.

I would love to hear any feedback and let me know what you think. Be critical, I don''t mind, just be honest! I just don''t want to make such a big purchase without any advise. Everyone else already thinks its good, but I didn''t get the "oooOOOOoooo" reaction that I was looking for.

Thank you all!

Here''s the back view. I''m not going with the long veil though, it was $1300 alone! My final choice for a veil will be much shorter.

Its a lovely dress and you look fabulous in it, but is it comfortable??? It looks like your arms are sticking out in that first pic. I am guessing that is because of the beading?

If you love the dress and feel comfortable in it, then I say YES! That dress is rockin''!!!

hmmmm...i think parts of it are gorgeous. i love the "tiered" look, but it kind of reminds me of a cake for some reason. it is very unique, and very pretty- but something about it seems a bit off to me.

That's what I was thiking too. It has many gorgeous details, but does remind me of a wedding cake. Silly me

If you love it, go for it. It is a gorgeous dress.

Yeah, its a stunning dress! I have my reservations though. It''s boderline too much for me. Honeslty, its confusing. The dress looks amazing on your figure however there are soooo many details thrown in there. I think, "do I look at the ruffles or the beading?" Because of that I look at the tiers individually rather than the dress as the whole. My eye is freaking out. That said, the elements are amazing.

I wouldn''t have listened if I told myself this advice before the wedding....however, spending what I did on my dress was excessive and I''m not sure it was worth it and I loved my dress.

I think it''s absolutely stunning and I love the tiers and the beading! I mean if you''re gonna do it, go all out!

Plus it looks fantastic on you, and it looks like you''re wearing the dress-it''s not wearing you.

P.S. I agree with you on veil length, too-something that ornate is perfect with a simpler, shorter veil.

I suspect it is one of those dresses that is more beautiful in person than in these photos. It certainly looks fabulous on you. It does look busy in the photo, but again, we are losing the real sparkle of the beading and the delicate ruffles.

If you love it, go for it

I love the long veil myself

Okay girls...I''m buying it!

I guess my biggest deciding factor was that I haven''t been able to try on any wedding more weddings dresses since the day I tried this one on. I know the dress is a little "too much", but most of my dresses are really exquisite and we are having about 300 people at our wedding in a really historic and beautiful palace like venue.

In all honesty, the dress wasn''t the most comfortable, it is heavy and it was actual big on my when I tried it. My seamstress says it will be a little lighter once it fits me and my height.

I really can''t decide on the veil. I''m so stuck....

But here goes the purchase....YAY!!!!

Ooh yay! congrats!

Have you considered a "fly away" length veil? I feel like it could be perfect because it wouldn't take away from the beautiful details of your dress! And it would nicely compliment the "flare" of the tiers on your dress... does that make sense?

I think it is an exquisite dress. Do you love the bottom half? Because that''s the most unusual aspect, but if you love the style of it, then I''d say it''s pretty close to perfect (I happen to think it''s fanstatic, but not so sure how it''d look on me so I guess I''m projecting). The workmanship looks pretty stunning..you will be sparkling!!!!
