I have been having some regret about my wedding dress choice. I am in general indecisive and am now wishing I went with something with more volume and possible lace throughout. I also feel that everytime I look at the bodice I think it looks bad and looks somewhat boxy. My fiance also said he doesn't like the mermaid style so I'm a bit concerned he would like something else better. I'm considering adding a tulle skirt overtop but originally wanted a more seamless look and am worried it would look cheap. The dress also bunches and this may help make it less noticeable..I want to alter the dress to have white cups and white lining inside as well. The seamstress I talked with said it may be easiest to find something white to wear underneath but I haven't had much luck finding anything that would work and not move around. My dress is about one-two sizes too large and the seamstress I talked with said it would be very difficult to cut the bodice since it has boning and beads. The crepe is also loose on my hips (when it's not clipped like in the pictures) and my seamstress said it would be extremely difficult to bring in the hips as the boning and lace beading is sewn down onto the crepe. My only idea is to find padded shapewear but I don't want seams to show through the crepe.I also originally wanted drop sleeves and a low back but tried on about 35 dresses and could not find all the features I wanted.My wedding is in 4 months so I had to get something off the rack.I was hoping I could alter the dress but it's sounding like I could have bought a more expensive dress with everything I wanted vs getting so many alterations.I am starting to feel very overwhelmed and looking for advice or tips on how I can fix it to make it more to my liking at a somewhat reasonable cost if possible. Thanks!
