Show me your ball gown wedding dresses!

Alecia, on January 15, 2020 at 10:56 AM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 20
I already have my dress, which is right in between A line and ball gown but every now and then, I feel I could have gone with a fitted dress. I love my current dress I have, but I am smaller and have a little bit of a figure so I'm just wondering if I should have gone fitted instead of ball gown and if any of you struggled with the same issue. Anyhow, I would love to also see some of you in your stunning ball gowns! This is the dress I picked out.Show me your ball gown wedding dresses! 1

    That dress looks great on you! I like that you didn't go full ball gown. The first one is not my dress, but I tried it on and fell in love! If I had a winter wedding, I would have chosen that dress. It was sooo big and heavy, not good for June. My dress is the 2nd one, which I absolutely love.

    This is my dress, it is listed as an A-line dress but it's definitely more of a ball gown! I tried on a few fitted dresses but I just didn't like what they did for my body plus I wanted something a bit bigger and a fuller skirt. Your dress is beautiful!!

    Wow, I do love both of them but can understand that the ball gown wouldn't have worked as easily for June. You look great in the fitted one though! And thank you, I'm short so a full ball gown would have been too much.

    I love yours! The subtle lace on the skirt is so pretty! I had sworn off ball gowns because I thought they were going to make me look even shorter than I already am but when I put this one on it was over. It was the only one that made me feel like a bride, not just me wearing a pretty dress. Congrats to you!

    Yours is so pretty! But no not by Stella York. Mine is actually a David's bridal, one from their own collection I think. And thank you!

    You look great!! and this post is exactly what i'm feeling right now! I had always thought I wanted a sleek and sexy look but I ended up saying yes to a ballgown that just gives that amazing bridal vibe. I still think "should i have gone the other way" sometimes so you are not alone!

    This is so beautiful!

    May I ask who the designer is?

    I got it from David's Bridal and it is one of their own personal collection I believe so I'm not sure if the designer would just be DB

    Thank you!! That's why I don't exactly have a problem with going more full only because I can get a fitted dress many times in my life but how often are we going to choose a ball gown to any kind of event? So while I still sometimes wonder if fitted would have worked, I still love this shape. I guess I'm really just thinking of my FH and what he is going to want to see me in. But I know, like everyone always says, that they will always find us beautiful no matter what we wear.
    And your dress is also very pretty on you! Fits in all the right way to flater you.

    They definitely will! You can always wear a more fitted dress for the rehearsal dinner or another fancy occasion. Can't always wear the princess dress! 😊 and thank you!

    I just love the lace on your gown, and the skirt looks so soft and light!


    I had tried on some fitted dresses but was underwhelmed by most of them. The ballgown silhouette made me feel like my most bridal self!

    Very similar, but not the same! It's a Private label from the place I got it from called Delaney. You look beautiful!
