What's the difference between the one I mentioned & the one you're talking about? Please explain, because I really don't know.

The difference is fabric, ornate design, and bottom line, DOLLARS.(LOL) Honey that gown is HOT! The shop in your area can get the gown on loan for you to try on (if they really want to)but they'll charge you for that. With your measurements you could wear it well. Did you try on any strapless gowns? How do you think you look in them? Because you have to feel comfortable and beautiful in it.

My girl Phenomonique found it for me (thanks, girl!)...I haven't went up there to try it on yet. I have a couple of pre-marital issues going on these days.

I tell you, that is so soft and elegant. What color are you getting, White, or Diamond White?

My 12 yr old sister will serve as a jr. bridesmaid (responsible for lighing the candles *In memory of my grandparents & my father*)
Colors are a soft yellow & white. (wish I could throw apple red in there because its our favorite color)

Re: Finding the right dress...

I agree with Phenomonique...throw some apple in there, it will be stunning...I can see it now, soft yellow/white and a little apple. Very nice combination, very nice indeed.

Charlotte wishes you all a beautiful Christmas filled with loads of love, laughter and the true meaning of this blessed season.

Re: Finding the right dress...

(Cinamin1 Wedding dress on the left) Did I mention I come from an entire line of broad backed women??? Your veil will visually break up the width of your back. Consider wearing your hair down at the reception to offer the same effect or change into another dress.

Yellow & red? really? I thought I had to throw orange in to creat a balance. Y'all are right! Yellow & red are a great example of related tones! I'll have to rearragnge somethings (with apple in the eqaution). I was planning on wearing my hair down (naturally wavy). I love this website! :-)

Re: Finding the right dress...

Thank you Charlotte.
The funny thing is, I picked this dress out late last year playing around. My fiance proposed 5/5/05! I haven't found a dress that I liked better since. Thank goodness it was in my price range!
