I love this dress, but am I too old for it?

I went wedding dress shopping for the first time today and actually had fun (I hate shopping in general). I found a dress I love, and I think it looks pretty good on, and will look even better if I can drop a few pounds as I plan to. Is it too young a dress for my age, though? I'm 42. Maybe cut off...

Is it too young a dress for my age, though? I'm 42. Maybe cut off the train to make it more age-appropriate?

    You're 42 not 102, and even if you were, who cares? Wedding dresses don't have age limits. It's about how you carry yourself. Leave the train alone - don't know what that has to do with you being 42.

    The dress is beautiful.

    You're beautiful.

    Congrats.

    You look hot in it, and its a beautiful dress. I don't think your age should have anything to do with whether or not you choose this dress. I'm younger than you and I could never look as good as you do in that gown, I'm jealous!!

    Your age shouldn't matter. It should be what looks/feels best and it looks really good!

    You look amazing!

    Also, I've never heard of the train having anything to do with age-appropriateness. (and even if it did I'd say screw it)
