MemberI didnt have any bridal pictures….its actually something I would like to do though. Heres me on my wedding day. It was a size 22 maggie dress. 🙂 It is admitedly not the most flattering dress, but i loved it anyway.
MemberYou ladies look gorgeous. I only have pics of me trying on my dress at my Mom’s apartment. I got it online at David’s, so it’s SO not fitted to me yet. I can’t wait to see it when it’s fitted! But here’s my very favorite pic of it (so far). It’s a size 22.
MemberYou’re all gorgeous!!!
Here’s me – My dress was a size 18 from Alfred Angelo. I LOVED it!!

MemberYou all look lovely!
@ShelbiDuda: Is that the 9T3090? You look fabulous and I’ve had my eye on this dress and couldn’t find a REAL bride wearing it.
MemberYes ma’am it is!! Isn’t it perfect! I bought the dress without ever trying it on! The stores around me didn’t have any in, and I took a chance on it anyways and am sooooo happy that I did!! =)
Member@ShelbiDuda: It was made for you! I’m dreading dress shopping but these pictures are making me feel a little better about the experience.
Member@HolyVowels: Aww you are too sweet! =) I was the same way when I went dress shopping! I ended up buying another dress actually and when I went for my first fitting I just knew it wasn’t for me…then I saw this one online at home and just knew that I had to have it! Since no one around here had a sample I ordered it over the phone, and when it came in I just knew it was perfect for me!! =) I was so excited I took a chance on it!
Member@ShelbiDuda: How did you know what size to order? Did you base it on the other dress you bought? I am overly compensated in the bust area, but I have small hips, so I’m going to need a lot of alterations and I don’t trust myself ordering online!
MemberThis is a real sore spot for me. My photogs did not capture one picture of just me in my gown. This photo was taken by a bridesmaid when I was getting dressed and holding back the tears because my photog was late and unable to be there. Anyways…my gown is a Private Label by G. I had to order the biggest size, a 26, because of my big ole hips. My seamstress took out at least two inches on each side of the top, and it was still loose up there.
