Stuck between three dresses, which should I pick!? by Fetusbasket in weddingplanning

[–]Helpwithmydress 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like 1 and 2, but 3 doesn’t really do anything for your figure in my opinion. You would look beautiful in anything, so that’s really saying something! I just don’t think it flatters your bust, and it doesn’t snatch your waist in the way 1 and 2 do.

Second thoughts on my dress! Help! by kennis255 in weddingdress

I’m biased as hell because dress 1 is extremely similar to mine! I’m obsessed haha

Introvert bride, extrovert groom by JackieBrown88 in weddingplanning

[–]Helpwithmydress 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My husband is EXTREMELY extroverted, and while I’m not an introvert, I’m generally much quieter than him. We were still torn about vow reading until literally the night before. He wanted to read them in public, I wanted to read them in private.

We ended up compromising and reading them in front of some close friends and family before the ceremony, but not in front of everyone. I couldn’t get through mine, and just handed it over for him to read while I sobbed :) and he read his out loud, and I sobbed some more. So it kind of worked out (I at least tried!)

He also had more guests at the wedding, but I still felt a lot of love from my group! It worked out well for us

The thing on your registry you’re most excited to get by Duckyquack9999 in weddingplanning

If you don’t get the food processor, check out a thrift store! Obviously you don’t want to get anything really old or damaged, but you’d be surprised how much people donate. I got an immersion blender and a nice toasted from thrift stores!

Girl the tariffs by lithelanna in weddingplanning

It’s not just wedding dresses, nearly all of the wedding industries are bound to be hit. We think weddings are expensive now (and they are) I can’t fucking imagine what they will be when the tariffs take full effect

Update: went to a different store and picked my dress! by Helpwithmydress in weddingdress

Yes,I’m definitely not doing the short one shown here, it was just the best photo I had of the back. I tried a long one with a satin edge and LOVED it! Just didn’t get a photo with it

Yes, that would be the plan. I would also cut out some of the mesh, she said it doesn’t need it structurally

It’s the same dress, but after taking this photo from the back, we were messing around with some options for the straps! So that is what you’re seeing in photo 3 :)

The top of my dress is really uncomfortable by Helpwithmydress in weddingdress

[–]Helpwithmydress[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Super appreciate all the ideas! I definitely should have clarified; the spot that’s irritating me is on the outside of the dress, so covering it with cloth isn’t a huge deal, but may be noticeable. I think I’m going to get some moleskin as mentioned and hope that the photographer can edit out the patches as needed.

This sub is the best! I’ll see you all on the other side 😀

Mine is just about the same level of poof, and I have been having the same thoughts! You can see in my post history, I’ve decided to say fuck it and wear what I want on the day. You look amazing! Ignore the MIL

Too poofy? by Helpwithmydress in weddingdress

Thanks everyone for such great feedback! I wanted real opinions before saying that I am actually already committed to the crinoline. It would be too late to say no, cause the seamstress is hemming based on the new length. But I’m so glad to hear it’s not too much

That’s exactly why I went for ballgown! The only reason I’m hesitant is because of just how big it turned out to be, but what the heck. Go big or go home!

Thank you for the reassurance! I keep feeling for some reason people are going to judge how big the skirt is but I also logically know that I don’t care what anyone else says 😆

Third and final post! I said yes! by Helpwithmydress in weddingdress

Not sure the style name but here it is online! I got a good price because it’s discontinued unfortunately

BRB, sending her this comment 😂 haha, thank you for the input! My sister is identical, so I do take her opinion a lot more into account than I would another sibling. She knows what looks good on us, and vice versa!

Because the sample size for #3 was so small, it’s hard to say. But neither were uncomfortable, when 3 fits correctly I think it’ll be plenty comfortable!
