Major wedding dress doubt :( :(

So I chose my dress a few months ago after a lot of searching but am now having MAJOR doubts about my choice! I went for something less traditional as I'm only a young bride but I'm now in a total panic I've chosen something far too 'sexy' and a bit tasteless. What do you think? Am I overthinking it...

So I chose my dress a few months ago after a lot of searching but am now having MAJOR doubts about my choice! I went for something less traditional as I'm only a young bride but I'm now in a total panic I've chosen something far too 'sexy' and a bit tasteless. What do you think? Am I overthinking it or is it inappropriate? I'm not sure how much I could really change it with alterations Smiley sad help!

    I love your dress!!! Gorgeous!! I think it's very traditional with the lace but has a little sass with arms and sheerness. Definitely not too sexy.

    It is beautiful. On you it doesn't look tasteless or too sexy. Gorgeous.

    Love your dress! Things looks different on a mannequin and a hagar compared to a person's body. I agree that it isn't tasteless.

    Absolutely agree that you should not worry about what it looks like on a mannequin - or even what it looks like on another person. Clothes can look completely different on all of us and taste level is often determined by how it drapes on you specifically. I have a good friend who wears skin tight pencil skirts and 4 inch heels to work and she always looks put together and elegant. If I were to wear the same outfit I would look like a streetwalker. We have two different body types and it makes a huge difference. On that note, neither of us has a mannequin body type and I expect you don't either. :-)

    Your dress is beautiful. Not sure how the back looks but from front it doesn't look too sexy.

    It looks pretty! If it makes you uncomfortable you could always alter the neckline to not cut down like it does.

    I would not say that's tasteless at all. It's an absolutely beautiful and classy looking dress.

    Think about how you felt when you were wearing it. If you were happy and it made you feel like it was exactly what you wanted it doesn't matter what it looked like on a manequin in a store window.

    I think it's gorgeous! I bought my dress and about 3 weeks later I had a moment where I wondered if mine was too much. Here's the bit of "sexy" on my dress. I was worried the plunging neckline would be too much, but my mother has since talked me down saying it is not too much.

    I don't think is too sexy. I think is the right amount of sexy and still remain classy. It is beautiful!

    It is not overly sexy at all! I was thinking there would be a ton of sheer panels and cut outs but the v neck is gorgeous! You could even add extra lace or a panel behind the v if you were worried about it being too sexy. It is a gorgeous dress
