Adding sleeves on my wedding dress... Yes or No?

Idk how sleeves would even look. What's your thoughts and opinion? ETA: My dress comes in a few weeks, and Im feeling kind of worry I may not have picked the right dress!

    I don't think it needs sleeves at all. It looks great

    I am self conscious about my arms as well so I ordered a lace bolero dress from the dress designer that matched the lace on my dress perfectly. Some have detachable cap sleeve options as well. I would talk to the dress shop and see what they recommend. I found adding something via alterations was much more expensive than ordering the jacket and it will be easier to remove later. My sister in law said it looked like I did a wardrobe change without actually doing one!

    I think you look amazing! But if you do not feel comfortable then consider all options like what everyone else on here has pretty much said.. Maybe a cute jacket

    I think it looks beautiful on you, but if you want a sleeve, I know a bride who ordered beautiful cap sleeves off of Etsy and then had her seamstress sew them on, and it looked gorgeous! They have some at the etsy shop icoutureicouture
