Bridal Shower Dress

Nadija, on July 28, 2021 at 4:15 PM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 13
Hello Everyone! I really want to wear this beautiful mini dress from Aritzia for my bridal shower! (See photos) I really love it because it’s both sexy and girly so to me it symbolizes marriage representing a transition from girl to woman. I’ve been told that’s silly since I’m 26 and already have a child! What do you think? Is it silly or fitting! Thanks!Bridal Shower Dress 1

    I think the dress is cute! When I look at it, it doesn't symbolize anything to me lol nonetheless its cute. If you want to wear it then wear it, it doesn't need to "symbolize" anything.

    Thanks Yasmine! I know the dress doesn’t have to symbolize anything, but in my own mind it symbolizes starting over and growing! And I’m going to wear a white wedding dress even though I have a six year old daughter! Congratulations and blessings on your wedding!

    I think the whole "don't wear white if you aren't "pure"" thing is SOOOO outdated lol. I wore white to my minimony and am also wearing white to our upcoming reception even though we had our son before marriage. That's sooo old school lol & thank you congratulations to you as well! It looks like you are getting married on my birthday Smiley smile

    Couldn’t agree more, Yasmine! Are any of us really “pure”? I already have a child and I’m going to wear white because I like how I look wearing a white wedding dress!

    It's a super cute dress.

    I am fairly certain no one would expect me (a 36 year old woman who has been living with her partner for several years) to be pure, and so all white symbolizes to me is that this person is the bride.

    I don't look at it and see it symbolizing anything lol. I just see a really cute white dress that a bride would wear. If you like it, then wear it!

    It is YOUR shower. Wear what you want and what will make you feel happiest. Plenty of people wear casual or flirty dresses to their shower regardless of their age or if they have had kids already. So long as it is long enough to cover all the important bits then I see no problem whatsoever!

    Thanks Grace! I agree if the dress makes me happy I’ll wear it and it does! The dress is flirty but classy! It’s short but it covers all the important bits. That’s important for the shower but not necessarily for the bachelorette! Lol!
