    That depends on the dress! My sister’s needed it to pull it together, mine would look so out of place!

    It depends on the dress but I think belts add a nice touch!

    I love the blingy belts, but I think it depends on the dress.

    Depends on the dress and if it has some sparkle already.

    I'm not sure at this time. It really depends on the dress.

    I'm all for the extra bling. My dress is very simple so adding a pearl and crystal belt made it feel more my style.

    I do prefer the belt look. It just adds something very elegant to the dress and some bling if the dress doesn't already have some.

    I added a belt to mine because I felt it needed a little something extra.

    No belt for me. My bridal consultant wanted me to try one on with my dress but I didn't think it needed it.

    I don't like the belted look, my dress has embellishments around the waist and I personally like that better.

    I am going without a belt. But if it's a really simple dress and needs "dressing up" I'd opt for a belt.
