Posted in Wedding Attire 319

I showed a friend pictures of my dress. Alterations are not complete cause its second feeling appointment so that's why you see the pins at the bottom. She said the dress made it look like I'm flat chested and the dress is so plain. Another friend told me the neckline is way too low. My style is...

I showed a friend pictures of my dress. Alterations are not complete cause its second feeling appointment so that's why you see the pins at the bottom. She said the dress made it look like I'm flat chested and the dress is so plain. Another friend told me the neckline is way too low. My style is really simple and plain so the dress matches me but their doubt concerns me. What are your thoughts on the dress?

Also, I am cutting off the train for practicality cause of the venue. I'm also nervous about that. Sigh.... I'm so stressed out and worried about my dream dress.

EDIT: The train has already been cut. EDIT #2: I wish I can reply individually on weddingwire. I can't figure that out lol. The dress is Martina Liana Celia top + Scout skirt.

    Uhm, your dress is gorgeous, you look stunning in it, and anyone who says otherwise is trying to cause problems for you.

    Honestly that dress is beautiful on you.. I understand why hearing people tell you otherwise would make you second guess. But I can't believe anyone would actually tell you that you didnt look good in it!!

    Keep in mind that everyone's taste is different, and think about if your friends usually wear, or if they have gotten married..what did you think about their dress?? Not your style?? Did you say anything? Did it matter what you thought about their dress? No..Everyone has different styles and opinions. What matters is how you feel in the dress and nothing else.

    I personally don't think it's worth eating all that money just to please two voices, when you're never going to please everybody. Get the dress you love.

    Thank you everyone! I couldn't figure out how to add multiple pictures on my original post but here's a picture of the train. The skirt really heavy and my venue is outside only so the seamstress recommended cutting off the train and I concur. It's already being done. Do you think the dress will still look nice with out the train?

    I think the dress is stunning. The only thing that matters is that you're in love with the dress

    Ignore what people say. This is your day, your dress, and yes all about you! You look absolutely amazing in this dress! I agree with a bussell instead of cutting off the train. Congratulations!

    I'm so sorry about the rude comments from your friends! It doesn't matter if the dress isn't their personal style, they aren't the one wearing it Smiley smile

    Your dress is absolutely beautiful, and you look amazing in it!

    There is nothing wrong with your dress. Tell them it's a good thing they don't have to wear. If you love this dress, then you should wear it.
