March 7th was my 15th wedding anniversary, so of course I was looking at some pictures I have in a frame at home (wondering where the years went! Sheesh!). Anyway, I was laughing at myself for choosing the type of dress I did. It's got puffy sleeves, and the typical gathered-at-the-waist skirtie-thing going on. Girlie. Blech.

Nowadays..I love the streamline A-lined look, w/ no frills. Just classy looking. Nothing puffy or foo-foo. Simple. Almost like a form-fitting evening dress. I just think that looks soooo sophisticated and classy.

Kinda like looking back at the clothes you wore in highschool, I suppose. What was I thinking? LOL!

How about you? Do you still like the wedding dress you wore? Or are you wondering: "what was I thinking"? LOL!

Well I have only been married 4.5 years so my wedding dress hasn't had a lot of time to go out of style. I still like it. It is ivory with a princess waist. I have hips so no fitted dress for me. lol Is has short sleeves that are sort of off the shoulder, but not streetwalker off the shoulder. lol The bodice is tight, the skirt is full and it has a smallish train. The bodice is heavily beaded and the skirt part has a lot of beading as well.

So yes, I still like it. I just wish I could still fit into it. :D

I love it. I wish I could wear it again :) though I've gone up a couple of sizes since then :eek:

Mine was real simple,I got a semi formal dress at Fashion Bug for $45.It is sleeveless and cream color.I could still wear it to a nice spring time dinner party.That is if we would get invited to one.LOL But I wish I would've done something different to my hair,but dh says I never looked more beautiful than I did on that day.

I didn't wear a dress. I wore a women's tuxedo. It had sheer sleeves and was simple and elegant. I would choose it again, but Gabe and I have only been married four years. *L*

Sara

Ahhh jclark! That's so sweet!

And I wish I had worn my hair different too. Up and classy~

Has anyone seen the commercial where the guy rents the entire movie theatre..to surprise his wife (on their anniversary) with the film of their marriage? Now THAT'S a classy bride!! I just love her "bridal" look..hair, dress, everything. (of course, I'm sure it doesn't hurt that she's drop-dead gorgeous to start with! LOL!)

Yes and No. It's been 19 years on April 16 so styles have definitely changed. I still like it, but probably wouldn't pick it again for right now. I guess that's the difference between 20 years old, and 39 years old lol.

I love my wedding dress. Our wedding was in our home so the dress wasn't so formal. It was tea length and simple except for a few lacy doo-dads that framed the "V" in the back. I love it mostly though because my Mom made it for me. :)

I will be married 17 years in May and I still really like my wedding dress!!! It was the very first dress I tried on!! I tried on a million dresses but kept going back to it!! I got to wear this great bra that made it look like I had big boobs, when in fact I don't!!:D

OK mom2knk! Now I know it's you! Hey, how was your 40th? LOL!

I am so happy to see you!!!!!!!!!!!!!:D It was wonderful~not turning 40 but my family took me away for the weekend and we had a great time!!!:D

That's my dress! And I still love it. This June will make six years of marriage for us.

I can remember one dress I tried on that I thought was really pretty - it was a evening dress type of dress, but it was covered from top to bottom in sequins and pearls and such. That thing weighed a ton!!!!!!!

Hey you! I was thinking of you driving home! I always thougth you were one of the sweetest people! BTW - about the 40 thing...I only remember that because we turned 40 the same year...I still remember that post. Oh..and I remember your wedding pic...yup...you had some "big'ums"

And what was it again....Blanch and Clovis? (or Harold?? Melvin??). Remember I always thought you sounded like the couple that should live next door to Lucy and Dezi LOL!

Great to see you again!!!

I still like my dress. It was kinda sad the other day though when my 13 year old dd tried it on...and it fit her!

Kahana....your dress sounds gorgeous!

megareader..ouch! LOL! But, that happended to me too. I caught my 11? yr old sd pretending she was getting married. Sheesh!

Oh..btw..she's not 11 anymore. And she's looking at her own wedding soon. Waaahhhhhhhhhhhh!

LOL PumpkinNoodlie!!!!!!:D
It is Harley!!!

Yes, I still like my wedding dress. It was "simple" and "basic" and took me a lot of hours to make. A lot of frustration too. The zipper I put in was faulty and broke the third time I zipped the dress...by then the seams had been clipped. It was a NIGHTMARE putting in a second zipper after the seams had already been clipped to lay flat! But...I still like the dress anyway, lol.

Here's a picture (remember now, it's been nearly ten years...)

Man, can't believe I'm the first to put in a picture!

For some reason it scanned a bit on the red side...but you can get the idea, lol

I have been married for 6 years now and I still love my dress, my hair and make up. My dress { I have to confess} was really expensive and very pretty...my hair was up and my make up was simple and nice. I have no luck in photos but thank God my wedding pistures were really nice and I looked good in them:D

couldn't get the pic to upload the other night...oh well!
