    So went to try on and pay off the balance for my dress yesterday. First time since getting it today i have been having second thoughts. Pics are in my album. Just don't know what to do, think it makes me look bigger than I actually am to. Help x x

    Ok, so here's my honest opinion...it's a beautiful dress, but I think that it may need altering. In my opinion, it looks a bit big and think either it needs pulling in via the ties on the back a bit more, or it needs taking in. Have the bridal shop mentioned anything about it needing alterations?

    Thank you, think its just me worrying. Yes it's a size to big and will be altered in the new year. Do you think that will make a big difference? X x

    It will make a HUGE difference! Mine was 2 sizes too big and like you I was having 2nd thoughts. Then my sister did the alterations and brought my dress back to me a couple of months later (by which point it would have been waaaaay too late to do anything else!). And then I put it on, it fitted perfectly and I fell in love with my dress all over again! I felt like a princess and I'm sure the same will happen to you babe x

    I agree with little kettle the dress is lovey and it does make huge difference when fits properly my friend was the same as U until she had it fitted and then fell in love with it again!

    Have U got a hoop under the dress? X

    No didn't think the hoop looked right but might look into that again nearer the time. I really hope it changes when it gets altered x x

    I think it would take you to have it on with your makeup and hair all done to see it all together properly. I think this dress is lovely and it will look amazing on your wedding day :-)

    The dress is lovely and you do look stunning in it, but i do agree it does look a little big! and trust me if it fitted right you would definitely be thinking more positively about it! once the alterations are done and as others have said with hair & make up you'll fall in love with it all over again!! dont stress hun you look fab! xx
