You look beautiful! I''m glad you didn''t change anything. Are you feeling better about it being strapless/low back?

Thank you, Ebree!

I''m glad I didn''t change anything now, as well. I''m still feeling relatively naked in it, but I haven''t tried the whole thing on yet (hair, jewelry, and now a veil). I looked at tons of wedding pics over the weekend, and just decided that I want to feel bride-ey on my wedding day, since I only get to do this once. In my mind, the best way for me to do that with a narrower dress is to have a veil. Luckily, I''ve had one on hold for over a week, so I''m going this weekend with my dress to try the whole thing on together. I''m getting so excited!

lauren you look GORGEOUS!!!!! i sooo love your dress exactly the way it is...i'm so glad you didn't change a thing.

dum-dum-da-dum...eeeeeee! i'm so excited for you!!!!!!

Thank you, Ginger!!!! I'm glad to know that I was only having the pre-wedding dress freakout that I was pretty sure I would have any way. I'm a habitual planner, and always second guessing myself. By the way, your dress is the most beautiful thing I have ever seen. I can't WAIT to see the wedding pics - you will look just GORGEOUS!

I'm really glad Mara piped in with her "last minute piece mealing" comment. With everyone else's comments, I just know that your honesty helped me to just leave well enough alone.

Whew.

I can''t believe it''s so soon! Congratulations! I''m glad you left the dress the way you did. I can see what you mean about the ribbon looking ''limp'', but I think it suits the dress! I hope you have a great time and we want to see tons of pics!!!

Thank you Kalispera!

I promise to provide as many pics as I can between the wedding and the honeymoon. We''re back home for a week in between, and back to work. But I''m pretty sure most of my days will be spent editing and posting pics - because that''s just what I do.

I''m also trying not to focus on the word "limp" when I look at my dress, hehe . . .

Wow is all I can say.

That is a gorgeous dress and it looks absolutely amazing on you. You''re going to be a knockout on your wedding day!

Oh I''m late to this thread, but I really love the dress! And I REALLY wouldn''t have added straps to that back because it makes such a beautiful dramatic statement.

Tee Hee!! I had to laugh when I read your post! I re-read what I wrote and I can see what you mean, but I certainly did not mean to imply that your dress looks "limp"

... I think that if a ribbon was used that was more structured and "upright" (for lack of a better word) then you would look like a christmas present

, not the look I think you want!

Sorry-Double Post

You are going to be a vision on your big day!
