What did/does your dream wedding dress look like? How did/do you imagine it to be? How do you decide its the one? I bought my wedding dress today and its beautiful. It turned out to be the same dress that my mom tried to show me a picture was. I didnt want a strapless dress and I didnt want any ribbons or bows... The picture of this dress had a hideous ribbon on it and was strapless... I wanted nothing to do with it. it was so bad we fought to the point where we werent speaking to each other. In the store I unknowingly put that dress on and fell in love with it. Hows that for irony?

A suit? and a lime green one at that. Very Interesting and very original. What made you decide that? and how did you decide on lime green? Youre very brave and daring. Something like that is definitely a risk. :)

Cute story. I hope you and your mom are back on speaking terms now. I went with my future daughter-in-law to pick out a wedding gown. She didn't like the one I picked out and tried on all the ones she'd picked out first. Then she tried on the one I picked, and it was perfect. We sure laugh a lot when we remember that day. So, when is your wedding and will you post some pictures on here for us to see? Congratulations and best wishes to both of you.

hmm.. i'd like something made of white laces. i like beads, too. but i don't want a lot of ruffles. i'd like the gown to be simple but elegant. it's either a stapless dress or spaghetti straps. maybe it's gonna have a long trail with not so long white veil. wow...

Picking out a wedding dress would be a tough decision to make I would imagine, plus a picture doesn't say much. It's all about how you look and feel in the dress, it would be different for everyone. I'm glad to hear that you and yourr mom are on good terms again, it would be a shame to be on a rough road with a wedding coming up, as if things wouldn't already be stressful enough!!
My dream dress is white with either very thin straps or no straps at all, I want a princess type of gown with a crown and gloves :). It should be interesting when it comes to trying dresses on, I'll be picky I think..

Sometimes it's good to be open minded. Trying things doesn't always work out the way you want them. I'm sure your Mom knows you pretty well and wouldn't try to ruin your wedding day. What is that saying? Mothers know Best. I love You...Mom

We didn't have a lot of money at the time and also we had to get married in winter, whereas I would have preferred summer. I got my dress in a sale & I hated it. I would have liked one that showed a bit more flesh, but that's hardly appropriate in a cold British winter! It actually snowed the day we got married & we all have red noses on the photos!! Hope yours turns out better than mine and lots of happiness to you. :)

my dream wedding gown is shining shimmering and elegant.. full of swarovski beads on the top as well as on the skirt. it would look like that in the picture but only the top would be a tube. to be more formal, i would wear white hand gloves that have beads on the edges. the color motive of my wedding would be light green and light yellow. i'm excited.. hehe
