    @Jkbwsr:  what do suggest wearing under the Dakota as it’s very form fitting I was worried about sitting and getting up easily lol I thought of spanx but then using the rest room may be Too challenging!

    also any good recommendations in getting belongs belts or a lace veil to match?

    @SavesAnimals:  I wore spanx for the ceremony and pictures, then took off the dress (and went pee) and didn’t put the spanx back on. Just underwear under it!

    @Megrenee:  it’ll probably be hard to get it under $1000 unless it’s preowned at least twice? Since the dress can sell new for up to $2300, most samples and once-preowned Dakotas don’t sell for less than $1100-1500 at best. 

    I dont think I’ll be able to let mine go at all- going to have it shortened slightly and dyed so I can rewear it. I’ve never looked better than in this dress.
