Is the dress too low cut?

I am not super conservative but I am used to wearing more modest clothing. I absolutely love this dress but I am unsure about the neck line. Ignore the gathering of the dress. The woman helping us was holding the straps to get a better feel for how it would look after they were altered, you can see...

Here is a better view of the dress details. I love everything about it. I love the lace, the shape it gives me, and the beading detail on the bodice. I feel like I need an unbiased opinion before I can make a decision.

    Its GORGEOUS on you.


    If you are uncomfortable with it being low cut, you could perhaps ask your seamstress to put an extra layer of mesh in the front over the current mesh? So it will still be an illusion, but a little "darker" so its not as see-throughish so you won't feel like its too revealing.

    That dress looks amazing on you Maggie!! 😍

    My dress also had a very low-cut neckline, so I don't think yours is too low at all - but your comfort is what matters! You want to feel incredible on your wedding day, so make sure you feel total secure with your dress.

    My biggest tip for plunging necklines is to make sure you have good posture!!! I think my dress looks appropriate enough (😉) in all of our posed & ceremony pictures, but there are several pictures of me sitting down and slouching during dinner and the girls were out! 🙈

    That dress looks incredible on you! If you feel comfortable in it, I feel like a wedding is the perfect time to be a little "extra" and wear a dress that shows off your gorgeousness, even if its a bit different than something you would normally wear. This is your time to shine! My dress was pretty low in front, had a low back, and illusion lace on top so it was impossible to wear a bra with and showed a lot more skin than any of my other clothes do, but it was elegant and tasteful and both my mom and MIL approved.

    If you don't feel comfortable with how low cut/revealing the front is, you can always have a modesty panel added to cover up a bit more. I don't think it's necessary at all but do whatever makes you feel beautiful AND comfortable.

    It's a beautiful dress however in a my opinion I think it's a little too lowcut. If you love it that's all that matters
