Hey guys! I recently fell in love with this Alyce Paris dress ....the only thing is it's a prom dress!! Is it "tacky" or cheap to have your wedding dress be a prom dress? I'm getting married in a vintage rustic building, and my theme is "vintage glam" so I didn't want a huge dress, and this dress is just....perfect! Tell me what you think! Also my colors are navy and gold with accents of ivory ..will my white dress clash with the accents of ivory? (Although the embellished portion of the dress has hints of ivory).

    If you like it that's all the matters! It's not like your guests will know you bought it in the prom section.

    I think it's a very glamorous dress.

    Does it have a train? Do you want a train? That's seems like one of the biggest differences between a prom and wedding gown.

    It fans out at the feet, but I wouldn't call it a train...but with the cathedral veil, I think I can pull off the train look without the dress having a train. Think so?

    Do you boo! It looks beautiful. Nobody will know it isn't a "wedding dress."
