Need thoughts: Wedding train or no train?

Noodle, on July 15, 2019 at 11:08 PM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 18
Attached are photos of my dress. I made a cape and detachable train that match each other. I love the cape so I want to wear it either way. I cant decide on the train. I love the vintage look of the dress and I feel like it loses that feel with the train and gains more princess Greek feel. What do you guys think? Which do you like better and why please. I will be taking of the cape and train for the reception but for the ceremony/photos I need to make a decision about the train.

    Wow you made that! It’s a little hard to see but it looks so nice! I personally love the idea of a veil for walking down the aisle.

    This is a tough one. I honesty love certain things about both looks.

    (LOVELY work on these btw girl. I could not do anything like this) ❤️❤️❤️

    Why I love both looks

    1) without the train it is vintage and elegant looking 2) where’s with the train I agree as well I can see where it is princess, romantic looking, but may also be too much.

    However that depends on what your theme is, how you plan on wearing your hair...etc..with the look altogether at once= having the train as well may not be too much for your look. Just hard to know and tell for sure at the moment.
    Regardless the decision is ultimately up to you and whatever you see yourself being and feeling like a “bride” in and what makes you the happiest.

    Love the dress and both options would be great, but I think I would lean more toward no train as well.

    I absolutely love the cape! I think I'm voting no train and keep the vintage feel!

    These are both so lovely! I can’t believe you made them!

    I do, however, think both the cape and the train together might be a bit much. And if you are going for a vintage look, the train definitely gives more of a princess-y vibe like you mentioned. I vote no train.

    I would go no train as well. They are both beautiful separately, but too much when put together.

    I don’t think that train material, being satin, goes well with the dress that’s full of lace. They have a very different feel. Your dress also looks like empire waist, while train is at natural waist, so it doesn’t really work.
    Cape looks very nice, so I would go with it!

    Personally I think there's nothing more elegant and EXTRA than a nice train. I'm all for the train! The fact it's detachable is EVERYTHING. love, love, love.

    While the train is beautiful I think it competes a bit with the cape. But really both are beautiful, well done!

    Nice job on making these yourself, you've definitely got talent! I love the cape and agree with the majority to forgo the train so they aren't competing!
