Aren't they absolutely beautiful!!!!!

I'm so glad someone else out there likes them!!! I love those dresses and think they are really elegant and gorgeous.

I created a thread yesterday morning on the dresses and majority of people bashed them and Disney for making them. It made me feel awful especially since I am seriously considering a few of those designs as potentials for my big day. Nothing hurts more than to see other brides pick apart everything wrong with your wedding dress and the designer. And it was my first thread ever on DIS boards!!! Not really a good experience for sure

Aww I'm sorry you feel that way.I like the dresses, I think that they are very pretty. Don't take it personally, I don't think they were meaning to take it out on you.

I think the girls were upset because they only went to size 14 and they didn't see the disney inspiration.

I thought that the Ariel dresses were dead on ,they were mainly mermaid styles.I would have loved to see a real life version of the dress she wore in the movie but with the twist of modern day(not the poofy sleeves at the top lol.)

My favorite one is one of the cinderella styles,cause I love the princess style gowns.

I did not mean to say anything to hurt your feelings sweetie- I was just ticked at disney for their sizing and that they hyped them so- I think they are pretty and I think everyone has their own taste . I worked in a bridal shop for 7 years so I have seen a lot of dresses and I was just really expecting a WOW and I think they look like any other line of wedding gowns - some of them I like some of them are ok. I was a size 8 in street clothes at the time of my wedding and my gown was a 12 (probably needed a 10 but I did lose weight) - wedding gowns run extremely small and I just think that Disney made a major major mistake here - BRIDES COME IN ALL SHAPES AND SIZES DISNEY!

If I were you, and you are considering spending that amount of money (I mean absolutely look at the disney gowns) but also consider Eve of Milady, Lazaro, My gown was an Amsale (you can see me Allison and Josh Trip Report), Alvina Valenta (loved those), Demetrios... and you know what - It your opinion, if you like them say it- I absolutely would!!!! Like I said it is your taste and I do think they are pretty, I was just expecting more so it is my own fault that I am disappointed

I agree with everything Allison said!

I was expressing my own disappointment. It definitely wasn't about you AT ALL! I'm so sorry if I made you feel bad, because I certainly didn't mean to! I think we were all excessively hyped about the gowns and had different expectations...


Please show us when you try them on, though!

I completely understand the size issue as well, but I still think the dresses are so pretty. I prefer simple, elegant styles with bits of details here and there, so that’s why I personally thought the dresses were great (for the understated Princess!)

I’m currently a size 16 (just lost 16lbs, so I would even say a rather snug size 16) and like it seems with every other overweight bride-to-be on this board, I too feel fat and ugly, so there’s no way that I’d be able to wear any of the Disney dresses right now (nor do I feel like I deserve to wear any of them right now), but I plan on motivating myself to get there (and I guess I’m lucky because I do have the time and drive).

At the same time, over the last few years, I’ve become accustomed to not being able to shop in popular stores because they don’t carry my size or not be able to wear designer/couture clothes like all my friends (7 for All Mankind, Burberry, Donna Karan, Marc Jacobs, Juicy Couture, Diesel, Lucky Brand Jeans just to name a few of the big-name designers that limit their sizes. Even the Disney Couture clothing that is sold in Nordstrom limits their size to L), so I guess it didn’t really faze me to be left out of another couture designer’s size chart. I don’t think it is fair; however it really was Kristie Kelly’s call (and I believe that all of her other wedding dresses are only available up to a size 14 as well) since the dresses have her label, not Disney’s. At the same time, perhaps we shouldn’t jump the gun too quickly… the dresses are not available for sale until June and it looks like they are extending the collection with Bridesmaid and Flowergirl dresses in October. Maybe they already have something in the works for plus size dress selections!

AllisonsWonderland- I do love your wedding dress and your wedding hair style!! Where did you get it done? It’s super cute, and it’s nice because it looks like your hair was a just about shoulder length to begin with (I really don’t want to grow mine out) Your whole over all look of your wedding party is so pretty (I love that flamingo color too!)… When I first saw your pictures when I joined the boards back in January, I even asked DF if it would be bad if I copied your wedding dress and colors and he just laughed. At least he’s not opposed to pink! Unfortunately, I don’t have the chest to be able to pull off a sexy V-front like that, especially backless! I wish I did though! Were you able to wear any support system underneath?

This is the actual dress I am considering. It’s by Piccione Bridal. I won’t dare try anything on for another year, though. I do like it better than some of the Disney dresses, however one never knows what anything will look like once it’s actually on the body!!
