    I think it's gorgeous! Really beautiful and a great way to add your own personality. I love the veil too. I'm looking forward to seeing pictures of you wearing it!

    Wearing black to a wedding is bad luck- don't do it.

    I like it! I say do the veil too.. it didn't look like to much black at all.. ties it all together nicely imo.

    Looks really good! The black corset tie brings the crystals out more

    Great job! I was in the same boat -- wanted red. I had my seamstress add red crystals to my gown and I loved the way it turned out.

    I think they look great together! I got a little worried when I read that you got out heavy duty fabric glue but you did a nice job. I think it's just the right about of gems on each.
