Yay, lovely! I love your dress- I am so into that gathering effect in the skirt (I even know what they call it, though I'm blanking at the moment).

That's my mom, and that's me thinking "will she just leave me alone for a second?"

That's all I got right now - I have to get my married butt to work. I got SO many compliments on the dress and I wish I had another excuse to wear it. We'll just renew our vows every six months in the backyard or something.

Wow, and the back shot is beautiful!
Congrats and thanks for sharing!

YAY weddings!. . .Very nice!

I am in love with your dress, you look fantastic in it, and yes; you should be finding more opportunities to wear it. ^_^

Unless you'll be passing it along to future wee desjardines?

Pretty! Thanks for showing us!

Aww, you both look gorgeous!

Is it called rutching?

Actually, the term I was thinking of was pickups, which I think is the specific term for that effect in skirts. I think rutching (ruching?) refers to something that's more integral to the architecture of a piece as opposed to an ornamentation, but I could be wrong.

Aww, great pictures! Congratulations!

A train! I haven't seen a wedding dress with a train for ages. Gorgeous, desjardins and mr!

I had an idea for throwing a "Wedding Gown Ball" wherein all the attendees would wear their wedding gowns and dance to 80's music. :D I could just imagine a bunch of brides in their wedding gowns, and a bunch of guys in Goodwill gowns taking over the streets of Portland. lol

You look quite gorgeous. The bead work is incredible.

Wow, your dress is absolutely stunning and you look happy and gorgeous. Congratulations to you!

Absolutely radiant. More pics!

Well, you know how moms are.

Congratulations, you crazy kids!

Beautiful! I definitely agree with finding some more excuses to wear the dress--I got married a year ago, and I've been trying to think of a good reason to put my dress back on!
posted by charleena 20 November | 20:27
How lovely.
posted by gomichild 20 November | 20:42
I love the dress. Actually, I LOVE the dress! And the bouquet! You and your husband make such a sweet couple. Maybe you could wear the dress on each anniversary? Great pictures, too, by the way. I hope you post more of them.

Great pictures!! You can practically feel how happy you are through the monitor!

I've read that, in the past, brides would dismantle their wedding dresses to make the christening gown for their first child. I think the urge not to let it sit in a box forever is universal. Someone should come up with a way to use them again, since for most people it's the most formal gown they'll ever own.

Awesome shots, I think the second is my fave. But I'm a sucker for the hands-on-waist shots. And I loooove your dress!

Awwww, nice. Fabulous dress, but it's eclipsed by the happy smiles. Mazel tov.

Splendid, desjardins! Hooray for both of you!
