Does your wedding dress have lace, beading, or both?

What kind of accents does your dress have? Did you go with a gown featuring lace applique? Does it have a little bling and beading? Or have you chosen a gown that has the best of both worlds? Lace?

    NO LACE AND NO BEADING!!! When I started looking at dresses online i realized that 95% of dresses have lace and/or beading. I did not want a dress that looks like everyone elses. I wanted something different but not plain. My dress is perfect it sparkles from top to bottom. When I googled my dress only the model wearing it pops up.

    I have neither. Simple and elegant. (Although it will need alterations.)

    I love lace! So most of my dress was lace. I've never been a big fan of beading, sequins, etc. I changed the sleeves on my dress so they were more comfortable. And I had my seamstress make a new lacing for my corset so instead of white it was black adding a pop of color and element of surprise.

    Mine has both lace and beading I wanted the beading to add some sparkle. Smiley smile Please ignore the bra in the photos, haha! I was trying to show how I sort of wanted everything to look in the dress. I also never thought I would want lace anything. I was surprised that I loved this dress so much.

    Mine was definitely a LACE dress, but there were rhinestone straps and a little bit of tonal beading throughout the lace. But looking at it, you didn't think "oh hey, beading!"

    Neither. I was quite surprised that I chose something so simple because I love bling.

    My wedding has a bit of blingy beading on the collar, back, and sleeves. I love that the back takes you by surprise compared to the simplicity of the front!

    Neither! The top of my dress was covered in sequins! I felt so beautiful, and I loved that it wasn't totally blinged out, since my style is more simple but it gave me plenty of sparkle and shine on the wedding day without being boring or plain either!

    Totally wasn't looking for a sequined dress but it made my retired dancer heart happy to put some on for the biggest day ever!

    I doubled down: lace with 3D lace appliques! I've never been a beading kind of lady, but I do love me some sparkle, so I thought I'd be more inclined that direction. I was surprised, but in my one and only dress appointment I really responded to lace, and I knew I had to follow my gut. Wish I could post a picture of the full dress, but my dress is custom (through Anomalie), and won't be finished until the end of July. Instead, I attached a picture of the lace the dress will have.
