Is my dress a bit plain/understated?

I don't want something too showy, but I'm starting to wonder if this dress is just a bit too plain, opinions please?
If it is too plain, how can I jazz it up a bit? Other than a veil. I'm definitely not going to wear a veil. Thanks! Smile

It's not plain at all with all that lace, it's beautiful!
What are you wearing in your hair?

I love it! I think the vine is quite unusual and if your dress had anything else on it it could end up looking fussy whereas as you’ve got it in the picture, it’ll look beautiful.

It's lovely as it is. With well-groomed hair and some nice flowers you won't need anything more.

It’s beautiful, I don’t think you need anything else with it. The belt is the right amount of understated sparkle for my taste. Lovely!

It's lovely and definitely not too plain.
My thought was to wear something in your hair to harmonise with the decorative belt, and I see that's what you've chosen. That hair vine is gorgeous

I think your dress is lovely and does not need any jazzing up.

Another positive vote from me. I wanted to see the pic because I’m very into plain and understated but your dress is not at all. It is really pretty.
They’re probably not fashionable any more but boy do I hate that off-the-shoulder with an orange tan look. You’ll look perfect.

Gorgeous, you're going to look wonderful.

Too many wedding dresses are too fussy in my opinion, your one is just right.
