    I found this dress at David's Bridal and am absolutely in love with it. I do want to replace the beaded sash you see me wearing in the picture with a colored one to match my girls but the rest is gorgeous. If you look closely in the picture you can see the back of the dress in the mirror behind me. Gorgeous, right? So girls, what do you think?

    I love it! I wanted to try it on so badly but it only goes up to Bridal size 16, and I wear a 16/18 in bridal! I'm so jealous. It looks fantastic on you. But I have to say, I love love love love the sash that comes with it. I wouldn't change it.

    cONGRATS! I love it...and wow at Davids Bridal. I love the back! I have been in love with backs like this one ever since I started looking at dresses! You look beautiful. I think a color sash will look very nice. :)

    Lucky... I'm so anti-dress shopping right now! lol

    You look amazing! Its such a pretty dress! I can't believe its from David's Bridal... I had this idea in my head that DB didn't do lace. Love it :)

    The back is awesome!  But something I've been seeing a lot of lately, are ivory/champagne colored sashes that are kinda thick-- I think since the lace is so intricate and the back is so beautiful, it may be a good idea to stick with something more subtle than a bright color or bling. 

    This is a Jim Hjelm with a thick sash over lace: http://www.brides.com/fashion/dresses/gallery/wedding_dresses/vendor/designer/jimhjelm/detail/129965?offset=12

    I figured it was brand new because I was sitting here like "I know every dress they have....where did this come from?" lol! Well that's cool, you'll be one of the first to wear it probably. :) :)
