    because i want to but i have my dress! i found this dress today - its by Sue Wong who makes such great stuff - my honey is lucky i didn't see this sooner b/c I'm obsessed with feathers and would 100% be rocking this as my wedding dress - and he did ask me if i could not wear feathers b/c he loves animals (and i think b/c he isn't always a fan of you know my um...typical wildstylin fashion sense!

    @sandiego - yeah im guessing not a lot of people would wear it esp as a wedding dress but its VERY me - but i tend to be a little OTT fashion wise.  i'd probably look like big bird in the dress anyway - im too curvy for all those feathers!

    @jwinnings - if i did get married in this dress 90% of my guests would probably think i was ridiculous but they would not be suprised - i think they WILL be suprised by my relatively traditonal wedding gown!

    Oh, and I forgot to mention, it comes in a short style too, so you can look less bridal. :)

    If I had seen that dress before my wedding I would have FOR SURE been a two dress bride, I would have probably rocked it (or even the short version of it) for my reception!

    I dreamed that I wore a feather mini dress to my wedding.  Everytime I saw a dress with feathers, I was sure it was a message from the universe after that!

    Everyone is expecting me to wear a gown with feathers. I know it! lol. I'm being serious. The dress I picked is so different from what I thought I would get...which was something like this.

    waaait a minute - frozen yogurt - i would DIE to see a photo of your friend in that dress!!!  of course, i understand if you can't post one but im so happy just hearing about her!!

    and is the short style online - if anyone finds a pic let me know but i am off to search now!  i think i must have the short one - i don't think i could justify the long one for my reception but maybe the short one?? 

    mrs dg - maybe you had this dream b/c you are an angel!

    WOW.  I would TOTALLY have worn either of those feather dresses.  It looks elegant, fun, and actually really body-flattering. (Jealousy rising!) AND under $700.  Just wow.  That would have been so awesome but I already bought a dress!  I need to stop looking at threads re: dresses! (Maybe that's what I will give up for lent!!)

    oh i love pronovias!  but mr.wildstyle (who is not very wild AT ALL) hates the idea of feathers too.  i was originally planning on wearing a feather capelet with my dress and he HATED it

    he has not seen my dress but if he hates it oh well

    @TPHoliday I can't wait to see the photos from your feather-happy wedding. Feathers aren't not my thing, but they aren't really something I swoon over - I was entertaining some feather-featuring fascinators and my mom had a fit! She associates feathers with the ridiculous poofy styles from the 80s, it was so funny listening to her rail about them. Not a single feather is to appear in my wedding, okay okay!

    Thanks WildStyle, as I said its totally not a dress I thought I would pick, but I LOVE IT!  I am going to do a feather or two in my hair after I take my veil off.  I think it will still add the white bridal touch during the reception, but much easier and fun!

    Gorgeous dress!!  But I don't think I'd be able to do feathers on a beach wedding, I might burn up, but its a gorgeous dress otherwise!
