    I just have to comment to say; wow! You are SO beautiful! Not that I didn't think so before, but by the way I've seen you talk about yourself before, I wasn't expecting you to be so gorgeous!

    Sorry if that seems kind of weird lol.

    When i tried that dress on i didnt like the long veil.... to me it took away from the details in the gown. but then again, i am not a veil type of gal

    I tried that dress on and it was my first maybe.... I only tried it with a short veil and liked it, the edging had beading that matched the middle... it looked good but the dress wasn't the look I was after... I can post my photos of veil with the dress if you'd like to see

    I LOVE your dress! This was my #2 dress. I loved how light and airy it was. I think if you do a cathedral veil it could look cool, but I'd just go with a simple one layer, plain version. Lots of details/finishing would take away from your awesome dress. As far as flowers, I like the either/or idea. But if you take off the veil for the reception, the flowers would look good, too.

    Thanks mrs future welch! very nice of you to say. *blush*

    I think I will try on the dress again soon and try on a one layer cathedral veil and see what is looks like. Maybe just have one or two flowers plus veil for the ceremony, and then take off the veil and add another flower for the reception. Kinda mix it up. I was also considering on putting my hair into a tight curl bun after leaving it long for the ceremony. Only problem is that I would have to find someone who could do that for me in between photos and reception. heck, it might be too much work to do that! :-)

    and yes, Dani, I would LOVE to see what your setup looked like with the dress and veil. thanks!

    Maybe do a chapel length veil to give you the little train you are looking for but maybe not a cathedral because they are very long :-)

    You look great without the veil. maybe the hole style has completed already.
