That is absolutely beautiful! I want to get the French bustle for mine.

You look amazing!
beautiful...question...is the mantilla veil supposed to be worn so far back?? are you wearing the veil and the flower?
@VirginiaMarie--It is by 2be. I posted pics a few months ago when I first tried it on so you may remember that. If there is another bride around here wearing this dress I would LOVE to see pics. 2be is such a small designer I can't find pics anywhere.
@iceprincess--I honestly knew nothing about bustles so I was thankful the seamstress knew what she was doing. It turned out beautiful.
How exciting! You look amazing, and I LOVE that hair flower. (if it comes up missing, I have no idea where it went.)
@zalonia--I think technically the veil is supposed to be worn higher up around the face but I was playing around with it and am considering wearing it lower like in the picture. I am back and forth if the veil will make the final cut or not. The flower is totally in for atleast the reception. What do you think? Not both together as I think thats too much.
A mantilla can be worn in several ways. Traditionally its up framing the face. But when I tried mine on like that it was looking like a I was a jumbo jet with wings about to take off. It also depends how you wear your hair if you had it up or down would be a consideration.
Miss.skinner you could wear it like ?
maybe?
love the veil. love the flower....just not together! i personally think part of the beauty of the mantilla veil is that it frames the face and having it hang so far in the back seems a little off. i think it would look best closer to the hairline...jmo. good luck!
Does the lace on the veil match the lace on the dress? If not,I'd get something a little more simple and sheer. I don't think mantilla veils are right for every dress,but I actually like it better positioned where you have it.
Your seamstress did a great job on the bustle! Looks like you'll be comfy all night (but make sure you have people who know exactly how to do it for you too!)
awww!! you look so amazing!! and I LOVE the veil! congratulations! you make a beautiful bride :)
@smyley--The lace on the veil matches the dress perfectly. I actually had never considered a veil but I just walked past this beautiful ivory one on sale and tried it on for fun. I have a feeling it may end up being a day of wedding decision. Probobly veil for ceremony and flower for reception. To be determined. haha

Today I went in for my first fitting and got a chance to see the beautiful ruffles bustled and my new twigs and honey hair flower and mantilla veil with the dress. What do you think? Only 1 month away.
