Dress Opinion

sal.mike, 24 June, 2014 at 17:28 Posted on Planning 0 9

Without boring you with detail my dress plans have gone t*ts up twice now.

We're running low on time and on budget so I've been thinking about a bridesmaids dress in white and jazzing it up with bling.

So, opinions please ladies. Can a bridesmaids dress be a wedding dress?

Specifically, can this dress be my wedding dress?

This:


with this at the belt line:


Thanks for all opinions!

    I love simple designs and I don't see why not. There's no set in stone wedding dresses these days, i mean i'm considering a red dress! I had looked into bridesmaids dresses as a wedding dress when i was looking to have my wedding abroad as it would be much lighter. At the end of the day though, if you feel amazing and comfortable in your dress, it's all good Smiley smile

    I think its a beautiful dress. I wouldnt think it wasnt a bridal dress. The belt would look lovely with it x

    In a quick answer, yes and yes. Whatever works for you!

    In more detail, yes and I think that looks like a lovely dress and personalising it with bling will mean that you don't feel you're wearing something that lots of girls are wearing as BMs.

    The only other option that occured to me, which I'm sure you may have already tried, is that a lot of high street shops now do bridal ranges that you can buy off the peg as per this: https://www.glamourmagazine.co.uk/gallery/high-street-wedding-dresses

    But as I said, the picture you posted looks great, and totally bridal to me.

    Yes I saw the pic before I read your post. And thought it was a wedding dress. I tried a wedding dress exactly like this on by provinans (however it's spelt) and wouldn't be able to tell. I love simple dresses as it's all in the cut and how it accentuates your figure. Go for it! Just don't tell anyone as people tend to be negative when it comes to doing things let's say in the untraditional sense! X

    I think that looks more like a wedding dress than a BM dress - definitely gets my vote!!

    If you wear it to your wedding it is a wedding dress simple as. All a wedding dress is is any dress worn to a wedding. That one is beautiful and fits the standr model of what we call a wedding dress and the little bling will make it really special.
