I was in the same situation… I started out with a white gown, then got a hold of a red wedding gown. But then wanted to wear my black with pink " prom " gown, so ended up wearing the red gown but wished I had wore the black gown simply because my red gown had a longer train than I thought to deal with at a simple park wedding. At least everyone that was there ( ten people showed up) said that I looked great anyway! I Loved your black gown it looks great ! Congrats …Did you get your gown at davidsbridal or at a local wedding shop ?

My wedding dress is white mermaid with black embroidery & beading from head to toe. It sooooo me! My grandparents are going to roll their eyes but I'm in love with it & it is VERY me.

"It was the best decision I made (other than marrying my husband) because I felt GOOD about myself and I felt LIKE myself so I was able to enjoy the day." This is exactly how I felt in my black wedding dress!!

Yeah, I'm going through the same thing. I bought a dress at davids bridal the first time around, and didn't like it and brought it back. Well it sucks because they only do exchanges equal or greater value! So i exchanged it for another dress… now I'm regretting getting this one, and now it's discontinued. I don't know what to do! my sweet fiance even designed me a wedding dress! Where would be a good place to sell a dress, or what would your suggest for me in this situation?

I had a similar situation with a white wedding dress. I kept thinking, "It's NOT me…but it's a wedding…but I don't like it….but it's a wedding…" and finally said, "To hell with it – it's my wedding – I want red!"

I wore the same DB dress in red, and I made a red and black sash to match. I think there were a few people at the wedding who were surprised, but everyone was very positive and pointed out that is was very "me."

Our photographer and our officiant both LOVED the dress. They both told us that it was awesome to be able to work with a couple that did things different.

Heather – you look awesome!

I feel exactly the same way she did! I ONLY wear black it's what makes me feel attractive and comfortable. I was afraid that my mom was gonna die when she found out but suprisingly she supported it. I'm not just wearing black because I am a Halloween bride but because it is truely my shade!
