Hi
I thought I had decided on my dress...But have fallen head over heels with this
www.temperleylondon.com/shop/trends/Balanchine_Dress_18541

My problem is - I am having a totally informal civil wedding, with a buffet reception... I fear this is really too much?
Or worst case I could look like a magicians assistant!!

Please help x

Beautiful dress and not OTT at all - just right I would say. Smile

it's beautiful and ideal for civil wedding

It's lovely :)

My wedding dress (waiting to be used though) is also from Alice by Temperley (it's called Fabienne if you're curious, and I think it was around £350 full price), and I got it on sale.
Although it's a pretty dress, I'm not sure I think the quality is worth the full price - so I'd recommend having a good look at the dress before buying (or making sure you can return it if not happy with the quality). I got my dress with a 70% discount from net-a-porter, and at that price, it's okay for me.

It's lovely! I wish I could find an excuse to wear it too Grin congrats OP

It's gorgeous! I got married in a register office in a really simple but floor length gown. Like you I thought it was one of the very few times I could do it, so why not?
You will be fabulous darling!

nevergoogle · 12/06/2013 20:13

style/colour is lovely, although I'd expect silk for the price.

Lizzylou · 12/06/2013 20:19

I love it!
You will look and feel beautiful Smile
Enjoy your day.

AgathaF · 12/06/2013 20:21

Perfect dress. If you can't wear what you want for your wedding, when can you wear it?

Hope you have a fabulous day.
