Any older brides out there?

I am 45 and will be 46 when I get married for the first time in October. I want the whole kitten-kaboodle when it comes to my wedding. I've been planning it for a lifetime and damn-it I am getting my time in the spotlight! I bought a lovely ivory gown and a beautiful veil. It is all about what YOU want for YOUR wedding. Who cares what others think.... Glad to see so many non traditional brides on here.

I'm 30. Does that count?

Hunni please...we are seasoned baby! I will be a month shy of 44yrs old when I walk down the aisle but I'm bring all the sexy heat. This is also my 2nd marriage but my 1st wedding and I'm making it a memorable day for us both. So best wishes to you and step out the box with your dress have some fun with it and be a show stopper! hugs~

All right!! I love this! Best wishes to you too!

I am 31 entering into my second marriage. I was widowed at age 24 so I know that my actual age doesn't say a lot but I have lived a hard life until now. We are doing a similar style wedding with only our children as our wedding party. And I agree wear whatever you damn well please and wear it with pride! Congrats on your wedding

Girl and you are a girl I'm sure at heart. You are able to wear what you want and what makes you feel spectacular. This is my second marriage and although I didn't want a dress with a train I did find a dress with one. This is my dress though I wish it was me in it.. lol not that thin.. My children are in our wedding, 27, 25, 24, 7, his 11, 9 .. yes 6 children the Brady bunch.. I just need to find "alice". here's the pic of my dress

I am getting married 2 days before my 39th birthday. I found a satin a-line bridesmaid dress (yeah for $180!!) that I'm ordering in a tan or dark ivory color.

I tried on dresses at David's a few weeks ago & was standing there in a gold lacy sheeth mother of the bride dress...while my 9 & 10 year old children critiqued it... when the manager came over & asked the consultant what happened to her bride. My consultant was like, "uh...this is my bride". Needless to say that was not my dress and that manager shouldhave been embarrassed!

I am 54, he is 47, my 3rd, his first - though my first two were just JP 'weddings' so this one is a for real wedding where my dad (who is 98) will walk me down the aisle for the first time. though we'll have a small group (current count is 30 w/some rsvp's outstanding, may go as high as 35).

this is my dress -

my daughter is MoH in a blue dress, his best friend is BM will be in black suit and FH in gray suit.

wear what makes you feel/look good and is comfortable - after all your opion is the only one that matters, well and your FH :-)

I turned 56 on my wedding day. And as you can see from my icon, both my 41-year-old wife and I wore classic ivory wedding gowns.

I am 45 and this is my second marriage as well. I love the beach so we are getting married on the beach in Negril, Jamaica and I am wearing pink. Please Antonia, wear whatever you like and get married wherever you like. Your wedding is one of the few days you get to call your own. I am sure you will be gorgeous in whatever you choose to wear and your wedding will be wonderful. Congratulations and happy planning!
