    Hey ladies my dream dress is a POB and I would love to see what your Priscillas, Vineyard collection, it doesn't matter. I'm in love with Priscilla of Boston 4306 but having a hard time finding actual brides in this dress.

    This is my Dress!!! I did not get the little coat because it was close to the same amount as the dress :-0 which was disappointing and even made my mother mad for awhile but I absolutely love the dress! 

    I'm 5'5 and ordered a size 4. After ordering my dress we realized that the lace did not cover enough of the dress at the top and the cumber-bun wrap needed to be moved down an inch so it would fall on my waist the right way.  They had to order more of the lace/flower detail to be to fill in that space. The manager even told me they have had other girls with this same problem. And that she wishes they would start telling brides this before they order it!

    I think I had this problem because the sie 8 i tried on had more material with it being a bigger dress so it looked like it fit right but when i ordered my smaller size the proportions were off.  So if you do decide on this dress in a smaller size than the one you are trying on make sure to tell them you want an extra inch of the lace and the cumber bun moved down one inch.

    I'm going to my next fitting in a week. So we will see how it looks with the alterations they did. It sounds like a lot of negative but as long as you are aware and fix it from the get go you should be fine. I can't wait to put it on again!

    @Allyser: I'm so glad to find someone that has tried on this dress! The price is a little scary but my mom told me that price wasn’t an object if I really love it. I can’t wait to try it on. And I’m definitely not a 4 and will probably fit in to the 8 fine but I'm bigger up top so I will most likely have to alter it accordingly. Post pictures when you have your fitting! Hope it goes great!

    i tried on this dress and it is absolutely GORGEOUS.  like, amazingly beautiful.  i seriously considered it but since i'm only 5'0 i felt a little overwhelmed by the skirt portion. (and i also tried it in an 8 so the fit was hard to judge)  but, i drool every time i see pics of other brides in it!!  you girls are both going to be gorgeous in this dress.

    @marlie: I'm sure you looked gorgeous in it! I'm 5'6" and I plan on wearing heels that are about 3 1/2 - 4 inches tall but given that BF is 6'4" I think I'll be okay! LOL!

    @Allyser: Can't wait to see the pictures! Yay!

    @pec1216 - I LOVE the dress you posted! Just gorgeous. Priscilla of Boston is definitely my favorite designer BUT I'm wearing a David's Bridal. However, my dress looks really similar to POB's "Maeve" in the Vineyard Collection!

    @jenniferceline: I've seen your dress on other posts and I really love it. A girl I went to school with wore the POB's "Maeve" in her wedding and I don't want to copy her but your dress looked so great that I'm strongly considering it. Seriously the day I saw your pictures of it, I went to David's Bridal website and searched forever for it to no avail. I found one on OnceWed but the girl wanted $600 for it and I thought it was cheaper at the store. There's a David's Bridal like 2 minutes down the street from where I work so I might just pop in there one day and slip it on... Laughing But I really love the POB 4306 (sad it doesn't have a name) but since I haven't tried it on yet I don't know how it will look on me. Just have to wait and see!

    Okay so I had my last fitting- shouldn't change in size before sept ;) And these are the pics of my dress with extra flower lace detail added. It's hard to notice a change unless you look at the pics next to each other. I also attached a pic of my shoes!!
