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?

MrsHass · 23/03/2018 21:32

It’s beautiful. I love it.

Hofty · 23/03/2018 21:36

Oh thank you! That is good news! Smile
I'm going to wear this vine thingy in my hair, but with the style in this picture, not the style in the link

Its gorgeous. Invest in a beautiful head piece and you'll be grand.

Helpmeplan · 23/03/2018 21:37

Gorgeous. You'll look fabulous

JustGiveMeTwoMinutes · 23/03/2018 21:38

It's beautiful

PinkAvocado · 23/03/2018 21:38

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.

flowerbombVR · 23/03/2018 21:39

Your hair thingy is amazing. You will look stunning on your day Smile

SoftSheen · 23/03/2018 21:40

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

hazeydays14 · 23/03/2018 21:41

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!

Chewbecca · 23/03/2018 21:42

It's not at all plain to me, it is really beautiful!

OrangeHorses · 23/03/2018 21:42

It's beautiful! I wouldn't change a thing

BreakfastAtSquiffanys · 23/03/2018 21:45

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

HeddaGarbled · 23/03/2018 21:47

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

theredjellybean · 23/03/2018 21:47

It's a gorgeous dress

BrutusMcDogface · 23/03/2018 21:47

Beautiful! I love the vine thingy, never seen anything like it before! Congratulations!! 🥂

fascinated · 23/03/2018 21:49

And you have a train! (Right?) that’s plenty

angelsnapper · 23/03/2018 21:49

It’s stunning, you will look beautiful

honeyroar · 23/03/2018 21:49

Perfect, both the dress and the hair accessories. You'll look wonderful.

Justletitlie · 23/03/2018 21:51

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.

PatchworkElmer · 23/03/2018 21:51

It’s beautiful! I love it.

Hofty · 23/03/2018 21:53

You're all lovely, thank you so much!
I have a tiny little train, yes Smile

One red fingerless glove?

I think it will look understated and beautiful. With a big happy 'bride on her wedding day' smile and you'll be complete.

Congratulations btw Flowers

SealSong · 23/03/2018 21:54

Gorgeous, you're going to look wonderful.

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