    Yes, you should have picked a dress that you could actually put on!

    No, I think it will all pay off in the end!

    This first dress you tried on is my dress…the allure. Absolutely stunning but I think the dress you picked is perfect on you. You look fantastic. Congrats on finding your dream dress.

    anon082015:  So glad it worked out for you!! I also ordered a dress when the sample came no where near fitting me. I think it was about 10 sizes too small? I know how nervewracking that feels, but you look amazing!!

    I had the opposite problem. I am usually a size 0 or 00 and many of the sample sizes they had were 8-18. It was hard picturing how the dress would look fitted on me, but if you find the one you really can look past it all whether it fits or not. So I think you made the right choice. 🙂

    Congrats on getting your dream dress you look fabulous.  I don’t know what’s up with consultants who only think plus size divas want to wear ballgowns and a-lines. People carry their weight in different places: breasts, hips , stomach or all over and different dresses are flattering to different shapes. Way to stick to your guns. You will be a beautiful bride.

    delphinia:  Thank you so much!  I definitely wasn’t letting someone else tell me what looks good on my body. I found that all the dresses they tried to put me in were not me at all.

    linkpartyof2:  Thank you so so much! I just want to wear it all the time! I definitely don’t think I’m ever going to be able to sell it.
