Need Reassurance

Guys I haven’t seen my dress in MONTHS. Pictures never did it justice and I am losing the feeling of how great it was to be in it! I have other friends who are getting married and their dresses are way more extravagant than mine! Need reassurance I didn’t waste $1300 (plus $300 of my MIL’s money) on...

    This is the dress I've ordered, it will be here September 23rd. It was a size too small for my torso so ignore the back pudge lol. There's also a makeshift "modesty panel" in the front with a piece of fabric because I didn't like the amount of cleavage so I'd probably alter that onto the dress. I liked it initially (didn't have a WOW moment or anything, just thought it looked nice), but now I'm worried there's not enough to it. It is a ball gown, but I thought I would get something poofier or with a longer train I guess. I'm just waiting to try it on when it comes in before making a decision.Need Reassurance 1 Need Reassurance 2

    Thank you! I do like the back, even though I planned on wearing my hair half up half down lol. But I'll figure it out, hopefully it'll just take me trying it on again to feel better about it. I hope you're starting to feel better about your dress, it looks amazing!

    Wear it side swept! But I’m sure you’ll fall in love once it actually fits you! And thank you!

    This is beautiful - don't compare at all its a reason you choose this dress. And you can always do a nice bracelet and earring set but the detail in the back and train are beautiful.

    The dress is fine and obviously you loved it. I think it’s pretty impossible to completely get that very first WOW moment back. But it doesn’t mean the dress is any less beautiful. I feel it will only be a waste if you don’t use the dress and spend money buying another.

    I've had similar feelings after not seeing my dress for a year, and still having over a year to go. I went to the store (they are storing it for me so FH can't peak) and asked them to try it on. Let me tell ya, I loved it even more. That dress looks AMAZING on you. It also isn't the least bit simple. Don't worry, the big day will be here soon enough and you will look absolutely stunning.

    There's nothing simple about your dress! You look beautiful, comfortable and happy in it. That back detail is spot on; just the right amount of sexy! Once you go for your fitting, all that excitment will come rushing in. You picked a dress that fits you and you can't compare other peoples dresses because they have a totally different vision.

    Yes super hard lol! I think sometimes we forget just how awesome we are and what makes us unique. You don't need all that glamour, sometimes less is better! You want a dress that makes YOU stand out. You picked the perfect sleek, sexy dress that will showcase all of YOU and that awesome tattoo!

    It's beautiful, I absolutely love it!! I think you look amazing in it!! However, I do think if you got one of those sheer, rinestone belts, it would really bring it up a level!! Especially if your afraid it's too plan!!
