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).

    Prom dresses are totally fine! I actually wore a dress from that Alyce line for my wedding last week. The BAM is here if you wanted to see a similar dress in action:

    If you love it then wear it! It's a beautiful dress. It doesn't matter what lable they put on it. If you wear if to your wedding, it's a wedding dress.

    Very pretty! Have you tried it on?

    Better to wear a prom dress to the wedding than a wedding dress to the prom.

    Oh it's really pretty! Prom dresses are definitely ok to me. Some brides are wearing colored dresses and that's perfectly fine.

    Simple and elegant. A cathedral veil will make for a stunning look.
