Are there any simple brides out there? I purchased my Casablanca a few weeks ago with just under a year before my wedding. I really love it on me, it is beautiful in its own way, but I feel like it doesn't compare to all the lavish gowns I see out there. Example: I went to a sample sale yesterday to...

Are there any simple brides out there? I purchased my Casablanca a few weeks ago with just under a year before my wedding. I really love it on me, it is beautiful in its own way, but I feel like it doesn't compare to all the lavish gowns I see out there. Example: I went to a sample sale yesterday to see if I could find my junior bridesmaid a dress, and while shopping for her my eyes were all over the place checking out the other brides-to-be trying on dresses. The way the sample sale was set up there were no dressing rooms, not for the modest, so I couldn't help but see all the beautiful girls and their dresses. I LOVE satin, I love the way some of the form fitting dresses looked on some of the girls. And here's me with a simple (but traditional A-line with train) organza dress, clean lines, completely plain throughout except for some minor detail in the bust and train, with Swarovski crystal buttons all the way down the back to the train. I saw my dress at the sample sale cont

    I'm late to the party here but I personally love simple dresses- I feel like people will actually look at you instead of the dress. I was nervous because I went in thinking I would get some dress covered in lace, with so much detail and I ended with a very simple dress with sparkle belt. I was second guessing myself at first, but when I went back in to try it on when it came in all the doubts went away and never came back!

    @Misti- what dress is that?! I think we may be dress twins!

    My dress was all lace. I felt it was simple and needed something. Once I added the sash, simple pearl accessories I felt it was classic.

    I feel like mine is pretty simple, especially compared to some of the more elaborate dresses I saw other's trying on that day. I'll be jazzing it up with a sparkly headband since I'm anti-veil

    Mine was pretty simple and I added a blinged out sash to spice it up a bit. I love your dress Rhonda!
