January 2009 Brides Post Here

Nice dresses!!!! Nicole: cute short dress and love the shoes! I am leaning towards wearing these Kenneth Cole wedge sandals... they are pearl white with shells on them.. that I got on clearance last year. I love pretty heels, but they are not going to be so pretty if I am wobbling down the isle. I am 5"9 and don't wear heels that often!

Is that trashy? my future MIL seems to think that getting married in anything BUT PEARLS is a terrible idea....

i love the coral idea! go with what YOU want and what YOU feel beautiful in!

Um...I'm not sure if I'll be hot. It's actually one of the lighter dresses I tried on and the train comes completely off, so that'll help get rid of some weight for the reception.

Silky or shiffon type dress, although beautiful, do not look right on my body...I am too + sized and they show EVERYTHING on me LOL

Plus, when I told my parents we were having a destination wedding, my mom's big issue was my dress, she was really disappointed that I wouldnt be able to have a "gown"...so I said "why not?" Temps in Mexico in Jan are low to mid 80's....so it's almost like getting married here in May or June I can deal and my mom is thrilled.

Oh, and my dress won't be in until the end of sept/beg of Oct.

Ladies, I love seeing all of your stuff

 

Everyone looks great in their dresses I love to see how different dresses compliment different bodies! Dresses that would never look good on me look great on others and sometimes dresses that are completely not my style will actually look awesome when I see them on a particular bride...another reason why I love this forum

your gown is beautiful (and the shoes are sexy!!)! january temps in mexico can be slightly chilly sometimes, so i don't think it'll be hot at all! it's basically the end of august, which means the end of september (AKA: dress time!!) is right around the corner.....

Thanks!!! Yeah, I was hoping it'd be slightly cooler the day of the wedding but warm the other days so people go in the pools LOL

 

My shoes are 2 3/4 heal...I start out at 5'9 FI is 5'7....did the math? He jokes that he's going to wear lifts and I have to be barefoot LOL

i'm totally agreeing with you on the weather...warm enough for sunbathing and swimming but cool enough to be comfortable (i just hope it's not COLD!)
