    Hi all you Bees! I am starting to have dress anxiety... I thought this dress was the most beautiful dress in the whole world when I bought it but now I am worried it is too over the top. I went in looking for a bohemian, relaxed dress but when I tried this on as a joke, I KNEW it was the one. 

     

    Do you girls think it matches my November, outdoor, vintage-chic wedding? The ceremony will be overlooking an creek on the property of a beautiful window filled ball room. Should I have gone with something more vintage and timeless? I don't think it is too late to switch-a-roo.

     

    Thanks beautiful brides!

    I think it looks perfect on you and I think it does fit with your vintage-chic wedding!  I love the ruffles on the bottom :-)

    Honestly, its not vitage-y at all...but...I love the dress and it looks amazing on you. I think if you love the dress, you will keep thinking about this dress even if you try others on.

    Who cares if it doesnt match perfectly with the theme anyways? hehe

    I think it is a beautiful dress! And perfect too! Even though that design isn't "vintage" due to it being hip now-a-days I think it is perfect! Love it! I think you should stop worrying. It is beautiful on you. I am so jealous. :)

    it looks modern so maybe you want to have vintage jewellery? an antique necklace ... It's a killer dress, btw

    i agree with the others that it's a gorgeous dress but not vintage in my opinion.  what if you wear a lacey victorian style shrug on top?  (not sure which era you're going for by "vintage" - OLD-old or more like "mad men"?)

    I am having a similar theme with a summer outdoor wedding, and it is causing me to have second thoughts about my dress , but like you I felt like it was the one.

    I included my dress... What do you think?

     

    Regarding your dress, like the others have said, I think you can rock it. It looks perfect for you!

    @loveispatient54: I LOVE your dress and the lace looks totally vintage with a modern twist in the one shoulder. I think the lace on the bottom is so adorable! Rock it girl!

    Although it's not vintagey or bohemian, it certainly is GORGEOUS and looks absolutely stunning on you. I wouldn't worry about it matching the "theme" as this one is just gorgeous. I agree with the other Bees to maybe add some "vintage" or bohemian touches with either the jewelry or the veil or other accesories in your hair. Or maybe something in that style with your bouquet.
