  31. Beautiful dress - such a relaxed feeling about the couple and the wedding. Love it. And love the belly shots BTW!! So funny and beautiful. Little baby boy will love to look at them when he gets older. There is nothing more wonderful than to look at pictures from when your parents were expecting you and see that they were drunk with joy!

  32. I LOVE the idea of longer sleeves on the wedding dress, kind of a fresh look after the oh-so-popular strapless gowns.

  33. she looks gorgeous! I love the sleeves. even though it is just a regular white dress, I think the pretty lace sleeves give it a bridal look. I'm not sure if I'd wear a short wedding dress, but every time you post one as gorgeous as this, I start to change my mind :)

  34. I saw this post earlier, and fell in love with that sweet little dress! I'd like to make a lace cover-up similar to the top of this dress to go over my own. It's so sweet and barely there.

  36. Love that! So cute.

    btw - as you may know, Erin is due around the same time as you...just did a post about a killer lasagna that we made and then froze for her 'post-birth-can't-find-the-time-to-cook-anything-but-i'm-hankering-for-something-homemade' phase. Not sure what you and Alex are prepping in regards to that, but just an idea. Makes a ton:)

  49. I think it's beautiful. She looks very relaxed, comfortable, and pretty. I love her hair, too. Making me contemplate some kind of fringe. (Bangs -- I'm Australian!)

    ReplyDelete

  50. I love the idea of a short wedding dress. And even while it compromises on length, this one doesn't compromise on appropriateness at all. I can't imagine this dress not being worn at a wedding. It's gorgeous!

    ReplyDelete

  51. Love the style of the dress! I kind of want it for myself (not as a bride). Could style it would brown leather accesories maybe... have to see if it comes in other colors.

    ReplyDelete

  52. I can't stand it - some ladies know exactly what they look beautiful in it... Pretty photos and lovely couple!

  61. Great Photos. I love the lace sleeves of the dress. I think the shorter dress for an outdoor summer wedding to be a great idea. And think of all the fun accessorizing and picking the perfect shoes.

    ReplyDelete

  62. That dress is absolutely lovely. I have been unsure of short wedding dresses, having mixed feelings...But that dress.... I adore the sleeves!

    ReplyDelete

  76. This dress is adorable but you have to be really slim to wear it. It is a bit baggy and a little bit bigger girls might look even bigger in it. Still it's gorgeous!

    ReplyDelete
