Hi Bees!
I'm getting married in December, and I'm wearing the maggie sottero Aurelie:
When I went in for my first fitting, I was shocked at how much the dress "poofed out" with a hoop skirt under it! Anyway, I thought I'd start a thread to see other bee's "princess dresses" to feel more inspired by my own!
Love the Aurelie - Gorgeous!
Here is mine
and on me - I want to get a hoop skirt to make it stay poofed out!
Here's mine! Please ignore the bra straps ... :p
ETA: Oh ack, file too big. I'll have to resize it when I'm home.
i love the aurelie gown! my second favorite. my princess gown is edwina marie by maggie.
it's my second true love...lol
I truly felt like royalty in my gown!!

@JewishBride: I hate to admitt it, but after I purchased my Aurelie, I briefly cheated on her with Edwina Marie *dies of shame* The Edwina Marie just doesn't fit our venue or theme all that well, but it is such a gorgeous dress!
@MercedesAshley: Your dress is absoulutely beatiful! What a commanding dress! I'm assuming you wore a large hoop skirt or crinoline underneath?
@Decemberbride: Thank You! & no I didn't have to have a hoop skirt... Just lots & lots of crinoline. It was hard work to get into. LOL!!
@Decemberbride I am also wearing the Aurelie!
They are all so pretty!! Here is mine!

@MercedesAshley: OMG, your dress is AMAZING!!!

@ DIvine that bustle is INCREDIBLE - but to your mom's defense it does look confusing!
@FutureMrs.Martin - yeah...I got over it, eventually. The bad thing was a kept stepping on my dress the entire reception. Oh well! If that's the worst thing that happened that day I'll count it as a win. 
Is it sad that I want to put the dress back on and just take pictures of the bustle? ;)
Hi Ladies,
This is actually my first post! Looking forward to wearing my dress in 23 days! Love the princess dresses!! They are all so gorgeous!
@mercedesashley: OMG and you looked like royalty! That dress is incredible. I think I just gasped when I saw it. What dress is that????
@divinemisse: I would be sad if that bustle never happened too, because I think it's the prettiest one I have ever seen!
@honeybun: Thank you!! It was my very first wedding dress I ever put on & I just fell in love with it. It is a Stephen Yearick (13158).
@lishcoo: Welcome! Beautiful dress! I'm sure you will look amazing!
These are such beautiful dresses! I almost fell in love with a big Judd Waddell strapless ball gown before I found my slim a-line, but a bit of my heart will always be with the princess dresses.
I only have a phone photo, but this is mine...
I didn't think I wanted one like this at all, but I LOVE it! Totally feel like me, and a bride, in it :)

Wow, your dress is beautiful! I am wearing the Monique Lhuillier Confetti alcenon lace top, the Monique Lhuillier Coco skirt, with a matching champagne colored double faced embroidered satin sash. I only have pictures of the actual dress though, lol.
Barbie has my sash, lol.

Got mine for half off at a sample sale! Carolina Herrera.

Beautiful dresses!
Mine is a Jasmine and I want it to be as full as possible without wearing a hoop. I think I may wear two crinnies.
@Mermaid1082-Mine is a Jasmine too! They tried to get me to wear the hoop but I didnt even need it! It was so comfy and I loved it!
@Blondiebee - I've had the best experience with Jasmine. My dress is a custom design - the original was a portrait neckline. I agree, it's SO comfortable. I want to go try it on again...
Here is my dress! I can't wait to wear it!!

@mermaid- I was told that Jasmine is the only dress that has a band inside to help hold the dress up and stay in place! Works well with skinny people. I danced all night long in it! I loved it! Dont worry you wont need a hoop!
It is Vera Wang. I got it as a sample from bridepower.com, which I definitely recommend!
Here's mine... I love, love, love it!!

Here's mine!
It was by far the best dress for the best price! Wouldn't trade it.
ladies, i am SWOONING over all of your beauuuuutiful dresses!
it's a bit early in the game for me, since i'm getting married in july 2011, but i think i've decided on a princess dress, and on a particular one at that. i almost died when i saw this one (and i've probably looked at all 8 million on theknot), and it has stuck in my mind as being the exquisite fairytale dress every little girl dreams of, with the exquisite details of the 19th-century couture i went gaga over during my period of obsession with fashion history from ages 15-19 or so. it has just the right amount of beading to me, the pick-ups are pretty and not annoying, the lace is incredible, the rosettes are just right...it's love (expensive love :( ). by pnina tornai:
i can't wait to put it on!
the irony is that i was between this look and this one: http://weddings.theknot.com/Dresses/52893/detailview.aspx?id=52893&type=31&Neckline=Sweetheart&Dresses+Gown+Dresses+Gown+Type=Wedding+Gowns&TM=31 they couldn't possibly be more different. the latter one is very 'me', but this is my wedding. when will i ever have the opportunity to wear something like a princess dress again? answer: never ever.
I think I took princess and ran with it. When else do you get to wear something like this? So fun! Cannot wait to wear it...
