    Is it BCBG? If so, a friend wore it for her wedding and she looked absolutely amazing.  I love, love this dress.

    Yes, it is BCBG--good catch!

    I love it and it is extremely affordable. However, I also like BIG dresses with big trains. BUT perhaps this dress is more suitable for my tiny, simple destination wedding (location not yet determined).

    I love this dress, but if you want a big train, keep looking and keep this one in mind. Maybe you could talk with a seemstress about doing something to add to the dress as well.

    Oh how I do love BCBG, and this dress does not disappoint.  I think it would be great for a destination wedding.

    I really like the dress and I think it looks great on you but it think it depends on your wedding. If you are having a simple low key wedding then I say go for it but I think you may be underdressed for a wedding that may be a little more elaborate.

    Its ok, a little simple. I agree with roxy821, it depends on your wedding.

    Ha, I knew it! It is such a good deal.  I'd go for it, especially for a destination wedding.  You can always add a longer train or some more ornate jewelry if you want to spice it up a little.

    It's beautiful, and would be great for destination! But if you want a train, don't let the location of the wedding stop you.

    Sorry to poo poo your dress. You look lovely! But I think the dress lacks what i call "vavoom"

    The horizontal lines don't allow your curves to pop...but that's just me. If you like it, that is all that matters!

    I feel like if you're questioning it- you're not in love with it, so you should keep looking. I think it looks great on you, especially with some poppin' jewelery.

    @coffeekitty: I kind of agree - the horizontal stripes seem to hide your curves.

    it looks great on you!

    but how many dresses have you tried on? don't let a destination wedding stop you from getting a big dress with a train if that's what you really want -- i would keep this in mind and go to a few bridal stores to try on more traditional dresses and see what you like better.

    I said that "I like it." It just isn't my taste. Perhaps if I knew more what type of dress you were looking for...

    I chose like it but now that you say it's for a destination wedding I like it even more.  It looks really good on you, I think it just depends what type of wedding you're having.

    You could always jazz it up with a ribbon headband or a belt :-)
