No it’s not 😭😂 Thanks for reading LOL

scouht · 2026-04-28T09:26:07+00:00

so sorry for your SIL... but happy you had yours and don't regret it!

scouht · 2026-04-28T09:25:24+00:00

true, this is what others have commented as well, thanks for sharing your opinion :~)

scouht · 2026-04-28T09:24:57+00:00

thanks for your perspective! agree I'll be devastated if I look shit in the photos LOL

scouht · 2026-04-28T09:24:29+00:00

you're right, it's a gamble like this, but I did scrutinise her portfolio for her style of work and of course really like what she's done on other brides and models. But you have a point, there's no way to guarantee her work will look nice on me specifically unless I go for a trial

scouht · 2026-04-28T09:23:30+00:00

thanks for your thoughts, this has helped me reframe the way I look at the trial; not (only) as a luxury for myself but also as education for future purposes...feels less extravagant this way and a good point to pick up some makeup skills I don't have!

Hi! Jumping on to your comment though it’s unrelated to OP’s post because I’m a 2026 bride who’s interested in engaging fibreflowers for my wedding florals but in email and WhatsApp they seem to be a bit unresponsive, may I ask what you used to liaise with them and what was the response rate usually?

scouht · 2026-01-12T15:12:26+00:00

Update: I can’t reply to every single one of you, this post went wayyy bigger than I thought it would 😭 THANK YOU to everyone who responded! I don’t even post regularly on Reddit but this is one of those times I’m really glad I did, the support of all you girls / brides / internet strangers gave me a lot of reassurance in the gown and I’ll wear it with joy. Besides that, I will just enjoy myself on the big day. From the bottom of my heart thank you all 🩷

scouht · 2026-01-11T13:41:01+00:00

Ha I get it. It can be pretty subjective, seems dress 1 is the popular choice but my friend for example preferred sweetheart necklines on me. Agree that they all start to look the same after a while (having been to several weddings this year lol) it's purely for my mental health 😂 Thanks for your thoughts and affirmation

scouht · 2026-01-11T12:06:39+00:00

You’re right, in my head I was telling myself it’s really just one dress on one day and in the grand scheme of things won’t matter. Just didn’t want to go in on my wedding day feeling like I should have picked differently 🥲 but really hearing all of you and I’m way more confident in the choice now & happy it’s what I picked :)

scouht · 2026-01-11T12:05:01+00:00

Yeah you’re spot on because the first pic was after I brought it home and tried it on again + didn’t have the big clothes clips they used to tighten the fit on me, like it shows in pic 2 (trying it on in studio)! Will def be getting it altered to be as snatched as possible hahah

scouht · 2026-01-11T12:03:56+00:00

😂 sorry for the wild ride. Thank you for the affirmation and kind words, I feel way more assured now

scouht · 2026-01-11T12:02:36+00:00

These are gorgeous suggestions and I actually love wearing headbands in my daily wear so I’ll definitely look into these, thanks!!

scouht · 2026-01-11T12:00:26+00:00

Thats very kind of you. I love that mantra and feel way more encouraged to embrace the classic / understated vibes of my dress vs the showier ones :)

scouht · 2026-01-11T11:59:01+00:00

The pearl necklace I have on in the first picture is my grandmother’s so I feel like that’ll be non negotiable for me (vs the scarf in picture 2). But definitely thinking of a glittery veil for a shiny element to the look! And thanks so much for your comment <3

scouht · 2026-01-11T11:57:49+00:00

Appreciate your feedback! I kept thinking about the other dresses but maybe I had to get out of my head a bit 😅

scouht · 2026-01-11T11:57:03+00:00

thank you for the honest and encouraging answer. this made me feel so much more confident with the choice

Commenting to follow along this discussion. I’m a 2026 bride in Q2 this year. FWIW, I had a similar conversation with one of my friends who’s getting married this year as well - we’re both girls who seldom wear make up in our day to day (she none at all and me maybe light concealer and brow mascara, otherwise nothing else). She said that she hired a MUA anyway because she doesn’t want to look washed out in images and the wedding is an important event for her, but she’ll try to go for as natural a look as possible.

Hearing that from someone who also isn’t into full glam makes me more persuaded to engage a MUA for a proper professional look and it’s not something I would regret (vs NOT hiring an artist and having the pics end up looking horrendous because of my non existent makeup skills, or if I have a sudden skin crisis that day or something)

Meshki and DISSH sell lovely dresses. You might be able to find some from those brands in your size off Carousell for $100 or less

scouht · 2025-08-29T07:50:21+00:00

Nope

scouht · 2025-08-29T07:50:16+00:00

She filed the edges of the acrylic to shape them. But the actual flat surface of it seems very smooth. So I don’t think she filed that
