Ok guys, I need some reassurance on my dress! I bought it abroad, and basically my option was to buy it and bring it home there and then, or not get it at all. I really, really liked it, and felt beautiful. However, I didn’t have anyone else with me, so it was just me and the bridal consultant, and I was beginning to go over my allocated 2 hours.
Anyway, for some context: I do NOT want a ballgown! At all! It is not me. I also do not want anything blingy or full lace. I do not want strapless, backless/low back, or lots of ruffles. Essentially, the simpler the better.
BUT, now I have seen some beautiul Pronovias and Rosa Clara dresses, and I’m beginning to wonder if I bought my dress too early..? Can you please tell me that I made the right decision! 😛 (I am planning on removing the tulle on the butt and maybe making it slightly tighter around the thighs, to create more of a mermaid shape, and wear a petticoat/hoop underneath.)

So easy to give you reassurance. It’s beautiful! I love the sheer sleeves. The amount of lace is just right (not overdone). The shape is so flatterring to you. So glad you are removing the butt tulle. That’s the only thing that seems wrong. Everything else is bridal perfection.
