Dress Fomo?

Danica, on March 17, 2020 at 3:01 PM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 2

Hi Brides!

I have my dress, and I love it and it's beautiful.

It's perfect for my wedding....on the porch of a 1920's restored house at 11:30am, followed by brunch at 1pm.

My wedding is a total of 17 people (now 13 with all that is going on), so super simple, super small. The only decor we are having is LED birchwood candles, cheesecloth runner and eucalyptus garland with gold/copper tipped antlers since it's just one long table.

My dress is a fit and flare, all lace, corset back, whitish ivory strapless sweetheart neckline dress....I can't post because my FH lurks trying to find photos of me posting it on here lol. I think the style is perfect for a daytime brunch wedding. It's similar to the Maggie Sottero Lottie Dress that I really wanted, but about $1700 cheaper where I got it from. The dress itself has no bling, but I'm adding a skinny bling belt, my shoes are royal blue heels with bling on the toes and I'm wearing a bling and pearl headpiece tied into my hair instead of a veil. I'm 5'2 on a good day, haha, and most dresses I tried on when we imagined them shorter just didn't look right. This one looks great.

Seeing everyone's dresses that are so much more fancy and beautiful makes me have a bit of Dress FOMO, but I also know that mine is perfect for what we are doing.

Does anyone else ever feel that way?

    I had that all the time - dress envy! I would see gowns and think gosh THOSE are so pretty but I’d look back at mine and think I love it too. Sometimes it’s just the idea that there’s possibly something else out there, that bugs us

    TOTALLY! It sounds like you found the perfect dress for you and the environment of your wedding though. I see some brides with big beautiful dresses and I have to remind myself that their dress would never work walking down the aisle on the beach! To each is own. But dress envy is a real thing haha
