Show us your wedding dress!

AfricanVenus, one thing you can do is to wear the veil during the ceremony and the birdcage veil at the reception. I like the DT idea and I had no intention of wearing a traditional veil except for my birdcage veil, but now I am thinking maybe I could switch to the birdcage at the reception. We are only getting married once so, why not. I would say regardless of what your parents are saying, go with whatever your heart desire, because they have experienced their day so now it is "YOUR" day you must do you. :)

I think they're stylish, classy, and still a veil. I'm looking at a tulle birdcage veil to go with the tulle of my dress. My sister says I look like I'm trapped in a mosquito net, and I'm inclined to agree, but it's different than the Russian netting you normally see. I'm also popping it off for the reception so it'll be just about the fascinator later on. And Mr. Tutera is right, as are most moms everywhere: when else do you get to have one? :-D

I'm going the flower too. I think the veil is too formal for the beach. I was thinking a big red flower because my man is Mexican so it would be a little nod to the latin thing :)

I am also going with the birdcage...but I am going with feathers, bling and a small bit of netting. You might want to try some on at stores..the real birdcage veils were uncomfortable b/c they were brushing against my eyelashes!

I finally chose one of the first few I had tried on. I like it a lot, but never got that super-excited THIS is the dress feeling. I'm glad that after all that searching, you did!

Jewel93, I was on the forum months ago, not even thinking about dress shopping and I saw this post! I was on vacation in Florida at the time and had a girlfriend call every bridal salon within 4 hours of home - and no one had it to try on. two phone calls later, I found a place in Tampa that had it and i tried it on and bought it the very next day. So a great big thank you!

Yeah, I live in CO. I went to about 15 stores or so & was finally just sick of it! lol  Some of the people working at the stores were just awful too. I went into one in Cherry Creek, can't think of the name at the moment, but they have all their dresses in back, and they just bring up ones they think you'll like. They were good at picking ones that would fit you, but none of them were my style! Each time I tried one on, the woman impatiently would ask me if this was it. I think I was there for 15 minutes and tried on maybe 4 dresses. She was so rude I was nearly in tears! 

 

I sure hope other people have better experiences with dress shopping that I did!!
