Wedding Dress Rejects: Let's Play!

Which dresses didn't make the cut, and why? Share pics if you got 'em! (I wish I kept pics I didn't really like because my "unhappy" faces were pretty funny.) Post a pic of "The One" if you found yours already and tell us why. I REALLY wanted a fitted bodice with sleeves & a ball gown skirt--so...

I REALLY wanted a fitted bodice with sleeves & a ball gown skirt--so hard to find in 2016. Finally, when I tried on a Hayley Paige (way out of budget), I had the idea of trying separates to create the look I wanted.

YAY. Martina Liana "Blake" bodysuit + Morilee skirt.

    Your first reject is my dress! LOL the wtoo della. I ordered the lace to add straps similarly to a pronovia dress that I love. I am adding a scalloped back, removing the zipper and adding buttons, and a deeper v in the front. The top portion is being worked on currently and I am going to go see it tomorrow!

    That dress was honestly so beautiful. I really liked it, but I felt like the scalloped bodice with sequins was better suited to either a beach wedding or an art deco themed wedding, which mine was neither lol It was my number 2 choice before I tried on the dress I fell in love with.

    I'm late to this discussion but I love it! I love looking at all the rejects and you all look beautiful
    I bought mine during my first appt, then had dress regret and went to try on more. Ultimately stayed with the first one I purchased

    This thread is SO MUCH fun!!!!

    The first three were some of the ones that I tried on....I literally tried on TONS!
    The first one was almost my dress but I was self conscious about my tummy.
    The fourth picture is my dress. 😍

    Did you end up going with a Rue gown? I am in LOVE with the Avril gown and really thinking of buying it used, but have yet to try any Rue dresses on.
