Is this fancy enough for a wedding dress??

Victoria, on August 5, 2021 at 9:43 AM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 18
Hi everyone! So I originally bought a wedding dress last year for my wedding that’s in a few weeks, but I’m almost 7 months pregnant and it doesn’t fit in the slightest. I ordered this dress as a potential replacement and I’m just afraid it’s not “fancy” or “bridal” enough. I was thinking about adding a bridal belt, and I have a fingertip length veil. The wedding is outdoors at 3:00pmIs this fancy enough for a wedding dress?? 1
with a tent reception.


Do you think it’s good enough??

    I think it's cute! You could definitely jazz it up by adding jewelry and a veil. I'm not sure about a belt, assuming that you already have a stomach from the baby. But I think its fine!

    Thanks! I do definitely have a belly! I was thinking above the belly, but wasn’t sure.

    I think "fancy" is overrated when it comes to wedding gowns.

    Jewelry (if you want it) and a veil will elevate this look and you will look very bridal.

    Congratulations and best wishes.

    I'd skip the belt, but otherwise I think its adorable!

    I think this is beautiful. Just think of how it would look with a veil, jewelry, and hair and makeup all done.

    I do think it looks a bit casual, but I personally love minimalist wedding dresses and feel that adding a veil makes them look so much more bridal. Seriously, if you look at popular minimalist silhouettes (like BHLDN's Montreal dress for example) and compare photos of the dress paired with a veil vs on its own, the veil pulls the whole look together and makes a simple crepe dress look bridal and glam. Add a veil and some jewelry and it will be beautiful!

    It's pretty and timeless. These kind of simple/slip gowns are actually very in style right now. With a veil and jewelry especially, it will still look quite bridal.

    As long as YOU feel bridal and beautiful, it is 100% the dress for you! It's all about how you feel in it, and now what anyone else thinks!
