Older Brides?

Any older brides out there? Like over 50? Any suggestions on where to find a dress that doesn't look like it belongs on a 25 year old?

    Yay for us "older" brides finding love! Smiley smile I was trying to avoid strapless, not a fan of my arms (who the hell is after 25?), mine is off the shoulder, so I've been doing arm weights hoping it'll make some difference.

    Here's mine (ignore the skinny ass model..ugh), the good thing about wedding dresses is they are made with all kinds of boning stuff inside that they really suck you in.

    Plus don't forget bridesmaids dresses, they are cheaper and you can order them in white/ivory.

    I think I am the oldest here— I will 63! at the time of my wedding June—— I eloped the first time I got married, my fiancé ‘snfirst wedding was at the courthouse, I love throwing parties, so I am having a wedding in my backyard!! The type of dress has been an issue and I bought one at David’s Bridal and have changed my mind—- too formal for what we are planning now. I went on line and ordered dresses from Lulu’s and JJHouse and found one the first perfectly and makes me feel pretty and sexy and was on clearance for $50!!!
