    I've ordered a bigger size to keep the ladies inside:)  I am planning on wearing the black sash for the reception, and white sash for the ceremony.  Ladies, what do you think?

    Is this the dress??  Ladies what do you think? :  wedding full size plus size 1 dress wedding IMG 2625Is this the dress??  Ladies what do you think? :  wedding full size plus size 1 dress wedding IMG 2613

    I am loving this dress, but as a plus size, have debated whether a *need* rouching, or if this best showcases my curves.  Note - I'Is this the dress??  Ladies what do you think? :  wedding full size plus size 1 dress wedding IMG 2611

    Oh, I LOVE the white sash. Why not keep it on for the reception as well? 
    It suits you a lot better than the black one!

    And I'm plus sized too and hated ruching. To me it just adds volume across the middle. Don't let because the fact that you're plus size box you into one style. Do what works for you and this is working for you!

    This dress looks perfect on you!  Personally I would keep the white sash on the whole night though!

    My dress has ruching, and it's fabulous, cause it's THE dress for me :). That being said, from one plus sized bride to another, you have an awesome figure and you are totally rocking that dress!! I also like the black sash... :)

    I love the dress!!  Great choice!  I also think that your plan (black sash for reception, white for ceremony) works.

    I LOVE this dress on you! And I actually love the black sash as well! I am by no means considered 'slender', and I am wearing a dress very similar to yours! I'm a size 16 and I definitely was not going to wear a 'typical plus size style'.

    ROCK ON!

    I think it looks stunning and shows off your curves wonderfully!  I have a dress with rouching, but that is something I would totally wear too!  I don't think rouching is a necessary thing - it's all about what you like.  Plus, the dress obviously looks amazing on you!  I love the black sash for the reception!  Hot!

    It looks just beautiful on you! This is definitely YOUR dress!  As for sashes, I tend to agree that the white sash looks amazing.  I feel like the black one cuts you up a little bit, and draws attentions to the ladies more than you might desire.  But the dress is incredible!

    I really like it! I'm wearing a white sash for the ceremony and then a charcoal sash for the reception, I love the contrast on your dress as well!

    Beautiful dress! Another vote for the white sash. It looks like it was made for this dress. The black one distracts from the beautiful detail, imo.

    I think you and 'the girls' look amazing in this dress. Very honestly I wouldn't think you're a plus size in this dress (and as a plus size myself, I think that's pretty awesome)- you look great! I love both sashes too, but I lean toward the black one.
