This plus size bride found her dress!

Jessica, on July 6, 2020 at 6:43 PM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 24

I was so anxious and nervous to go dress shopping as a plus size bride but I actually found my dream dress at the second store I went to! I purchased a dress from David’s Bridal first, but once I got home I realized that I settled. I don’t know about any other brides, but I felt like I’ve been settling for plus size fashion most of my life, and my wedding dress shouldn’t be just something I settled on. So for any brides that feel like you’ll never find the one, that you have to settle for something you don’t love, STAY POSUTIVE!!! Your dress is out there, and if I found one for me you definitely can find one for you! ❤️

    Cute dress and looks lovely on you. Funny it looks like my first dress I ended up exchanging lol. I think the lacing and the color fits you perfectly and glad you are in love.

    Aw thank you! Haha I know it's crazy how different the same dress looks and feels from one bride to another! One thing I'm going to change is that I'm going to add straps, and not going with a veil, but I am in love otherwise!

    Aw thank you!!! Smiley heart It really feels like it too! I never understood the drive to find a dress you're in love with until now, lol! I feel like I'm trying to figure out different ways to wear it more than just once and jokingly said I should wear it to my company's Christmas party hahaha.

    Not every bride loves a veil and that is fine. You choose what you need to feel beautiful on your day, Smiley smile

    Looks amazing!!! I’ve heard brides say that they knew they found their dress as soon as they tried it on but I always thought that was just a pipe dream. Until I put on my dress...that feeling that you get, deep down that you know that’s your dress! Love the detail on your dress! The color looks so pretty on you! Congrats!!!
