Now the only question is do I wear my hair differently for the civil and beach ceremonies with different dresses? I had planned on wearing my hair up in a loose chignon to one side with my hair flower in Mexico, but not sure if the ivory dress would look okay with hair down, it has a low back.

amjohnson - both dresses are absolutely stunning! Like the other girls said, whatever you decide to do with your hair will look great. and becasue both dresses are different I don't think it will matter if you do the same hairstyle twice.

Amjohnson both are gorgeous!! Stunning and very chic!! Love them both!! Are the both designed by the same designer?

Yes, I'm happy to report that as of today, ALL of the dresses are now in the city and ready for alterations.  So, the Barijay dress took 5 months to come in, and the Barijay "rushed" dress took almost 3 1/2 months.

Thank you everyone for the compliments!

MJKH, I love the glamour of the first dress but the second dress is more comfortable. But I am still thinking of taking the ivory dress to Mexico for the dinner reception. Is that crazy? It is more form fitting and you need to be careful when you sit. If I don't take it with us, then I likely will have one dress to wear for our at home reception to wear that isn't dirty.

 

JandG,

We are having our civil ceremony at a place called the Muttart Conservatory, they are pyramid shaped buildings with plants. We are getting married in the Seasonal pyramid with pointsettias. We are then going to a posh restaurant. I wasn't going to wear it to dinner, mainly because I was worried about getting it dirty..lol..Oh well I might wear a bib!

 

The ivory dress is by Enzoani and the second one is by Galina.

The ivory dress makes you look like a hollywood screen siren (very va-va!!)...and because of the beautiful beading on the straps I would wear my hair up too.  The Mexico dress is much more fun and playful...I think your loose chignon with a hair flower idea is great...but I could totally see long and flow-y hair with that dress too.  When did you plan to wear the ivory dress in Mexico?

So...I bought my dress before we decided to do a Destination Wedding. I am hoping it will work. I chose a less glitzy dress because I wanted to glam it up with a huge necklace, bracelets, and earrings. I still do plan to do that, maybe in a pretty tropical turquoise/blue color. :-)

Would love opinions on this since I am worried about wearing this 'type' of dress on the beach.

My dress was much larger then that and i rocked it LOL its all about you and how you feel in it. No dress is the wrong dress if you love it

I think this dress will be GREAT for the beach! It's all in what you want and feel comfortable in. I don't believe there is a "right" dress for a beach wedding. Originally when I went dress shopping I wanted a light flowy "beachy" kind of dress because regardless if it was destination or at home it was going to be on the beach. I ended up going with a dress with a full skirt and train and the works...my mom tryed to convince me otherwise until she saw me in the dress lol and she was sold. I'm also planning on doing TTD even though I've been told I'm going to sink to the bottom of the ocean with it on BUT it's the dress I fell in love with and wouldn't have it any other way. Bottom line it doesn't matter what "type" of dress you have, if your happy with it your wedding day will be amazing!

Super cute dress by the way!
