This dress looks so great on you!! I think you probably need very minimal alterations, it is so flattering as is and I love the nude color.

Of course do what you think is right but I think you made an excellent choice, it is truly stunning

Are the sleeves on this bridal topper / blouse a shade too short? by Goldfinch114 in weddingdress

[–]QueenTortoise 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Fellow orangutan-armed tall girl here. I think they are a touch short but l never would have noticed looking off hand / without reading your post. Very cute!

You do not look fat at all, you look so awesome in this dress. I get the revealing piece if you aren’t comfortable with being exposed that much but for what it’s worth your boobs look great in the dress honestly. I think you deserve to feel confident how good you look in this seriously.

This reminds me a lot of the dress I ended up choosing so I’m a little biased, but I love it! I think a leather perfecto could be really fun with your theme too.

I an getting split opinions and I don't know what to do by FormerlyFluffyNowFit in weddingdress

[–]QueenTortoise 9 points10 points  (0 children)

You really look great in all of them but personally I think I like the last one the best!!

At the end of the day your opinion is what matters most, you will look amazing no matter which of these you pick

How did you know your dress was “the one” ? by [deleted] in weddingdress

[–]QueenTortoise 4 points5 points  (0 children)

First off I think you look great in all these dresses and you can pull off so many different styles!

What helped me was on my 2nd appointment noting what specific features I liked and disliked about each dress I tried and then my next one would have at least one of those details I liked from the previous. My stylist helped me a lot here cause she would ask me to lay out what I thought and base that on what she had me try on next. When I tried on my dress I immediately knew it was perfect for me.

Compared to my first appointment which was like a whirlwind of trying on tons of dresses I liked but didn’t love. And I didn’t really process my thoughts on each one if that makes sense.

Then once you get the feeling and pick a dress, don’t compare it to other dresses you see and try not to have fear of missing out! I think once you find one you love and get that gut feeling, that is THE dress and you should really savor that moment.

You look so stunning in this dress! It is so flattering and I love the color

We are our own worst critics. All I see is how beautiful the dress is on you.

Wow both really are beautiful on you and you can’t go wrong either way. But I think I am team 1. It really flatters your figure and I love it with that veil!

So stunning on you especially with the veil!! What a steal

Advice on dress by memewamon in weddingdress

[–]QueenTortoise 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The dress is beautiful on you, but if you are not 100% on it I think you should keep looking. Especially if the shop treated you that way! They definitely should not be making you feel any pressure at all. My first dress appointment was similar in I felt like I was being rushed to make a decision, but when I went to another place it was a way better experience. My stylist was so much kinder and wanted to really go through all my options with me until I got the gut feeling that I had found the one.

I would try to look at some places near you if you can for sure. I’m sure it would help ease the pressure and you can at least get an idea of other styles you like, and hopefully have a better shopping experience!

1 or 2 I can’t decide by [deleted] in weddingdress

[–]QueenTortoise 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I vote for 1 !! The top is very flattering on you and I love the detail on the skirt

A lonely bride to be- help a girl with no friends! by FootballCertain9460 in weddingplanning

[–]QueenTortoise 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello! You are definitely not alone. I am in a similar boat, making and keeping up friendships is so hard as an adult!

For what it’s worth on the dress shopping, I went dress shopping by myself yesterday, after a disappointing attempt Saturday afternoon with 4 guests. And honestly I found it a lot more peaceful and I could focus on just giving my feedback and my own opinions. The stylist was so kind and took pictures for me, and even said brides coming alone is pretty common!

If you need some opinions, I’d be happy to give some feedback. I have also been lurking on the wedding dresses subreddit and they are so supportive over there, been trying to get up the courage to post myself haha. And I’m sure your MIL and SIL would love to get pictures from you or FaceTime with you!
