Hello ladies!I am looking for a friend here! ...My wedding is in 3 ish months and I am having wedding dress doubts! I bought my dress in March and I cannot exchange it or return it. I was not sure if I wanted to buy an ivory/champagne or ivory/ivory when I bought it, but I decided to go with ivory/...

Hello ladies!I am looking for a friend here! ...My wedding is in 3 ish months and I am having wedding dress doubts! I bought my dress in March and I cannot exchange it or return it. I was not sure if I wanted to buy an ivory/champagne or ivory/ivory when I bought it, but I decided to go with ivory/ champagne. My mom has been making comments on the color of my dress ( even if she helped me pick it). She is unsure about the color and now I feel the same. I am freaking out!.. I am scared it would look dirty or ugly.... I dont know. I worked in the fashion industry years ago and I am pretty picky when it comes to clothes so this does not help either. I keep finding different things that make me feel insecure about my dress Smiley sad ... what do you guys think? i am sharing a picture for reference. Thanks!

the dress was too big for me this is why the back looks weird...it was clipped to have an idea of how it would fit

    I think its gorgeous!! I love the color. Definitely doesnt look dirty. If you are having doubts maybe delete all pictures of your dress and dont look at it until your wedding day or as little as you need to. It will make it feel brand new again

    I'm having similar thoughts about my dress except mine is ivory/ivory and I wish I did ivory/champagne. The bridal store told me that ivory/champagne won't look as polished as ivory/ivory but the lace pops so well on ivory/champagne as it does in your dress which looks so beautiful! My dress hasn't come in yet, but I'm afraid it's too late to for me. I absolutely believe you made the right decision!

    Omg. This dress is so pretty and elegant and you look amazing in it! It doesn’t look dirty at all! The color really shows off the lace. Really beautiful!

    So, I think it looks gorgeous on you, but I'm going to be supremely biased here because we are dress twins!! That is the dress and color combination I chose! I'll admit I too was worried about the color (mostly because I'd always thought I'd get a white dress so this was waaaayy different), but it turned out amazing. Smiley heart I think if you're anything like me, you won't regret your original decision.

    Omg!!! we really are dress twins!!! i was looking at all your pictures and it looks so beautiful. Did you put anything under the skirt to make it look bigger? I like how you changed the neck line from off the shoulder. I like that this dress is not that heavy and I LOVE dancing! I am a little scared about the color... I dont want it to look too dark in my pictures

    Your dress is beautiful! I love the undertone because it makes the lace detailing really stand out! I think if you had opted for the same color undertone you would have lost that beautiful lace detailing!

    I think your dress is gorgeous Smiley laugh I had some doubts about my dress too, I think it's fairly normal. A wedding dress is a pretty big commitment xD

    Nope, no extra layers. I wanted to avoid too much pouf, which is why I picked that one. A few I tried on before had way too much skirt, so this was perfect for me.

    Thanks! I love the look of the off the shoulder, but I knew it would be too restrictive for me for dancing, plus I liked the extra support (I don't have much success with strapless things).

    Yes! I danced SO MUCH! I barely left the dance floor, and the dress never got too heavy (though after a while I was sweating quite a bit, lol).

    It definitely looks lighter in pictures than in person (and I'll add an outdoor pic as well as inside our reception venue, which was a little darker than the chapel, here for you too), but if there's any light in your venue you should be fine.

    The ivory/champagne look has become very popular recently and it looks wonderful in that dress! Just because people think wedding dress as white doesn’t mean that that is how it has to be! That dress looks wonderful on you and i don’t think it would look better as a different color! You made the right choice!
