Wedding Gowns - You VS Model


Recommended Posts

I do love this thread! I picked up my dress last week (bought it at a sample sale) so will put it on and take a pic. I'm going to be making alterations to it though so I'll do a before and after alterations. I'm so excited!! It's a beautiful dress but once I customize it I'm hoping it looks amazing! Now I just need a great seamstress in Toronto that won't cost me more than the dress did.... is there a thread for that?

bwahahaaa - david's just switched out the photos on their website, and now I totally have to post. the model looks like helena bonham carter from sweeny todd! (no offense to any of them - it was a great movie, and I'm sure david's did it to the model - just not the world's best wedding look). you have to see this:

old shot from david's website (much more reasonable, even if she does look like a kindergarten teacher ; ):

and finally, me in the dress (I ended up going with the chapel length veil as seen in the photo above and my last pic below):

This is my dress on the model in a different shade...

This is the dress on me in ivory....here the lighting makes the top half of the dress look lighter then the bottom half, but the color of the dress is actually all ivory which is more like the bottom half! I also added a small belt to mine

    • Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!
    • Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
