That is a great dress, the groom looks equally great, and they look like they are having a really fun time. Hooray fun ruffle dress and mod suit! In PARIS! Two thumbs up here.

I'd wear something <i>similar</i>: I could wear it if it was just above ankle-length, and either built into a corset, or had straps so I could wear a bra. In other words, another dress entirely! But it could look like a relative! I think it absolutely suits the woman wearing it; she looks fabulously happy and herself.

Plus, she looks so darn cute in it - not something that I could pull off at all! It looks like a Vegas wedding – so I think that it is perfect for a fun elopement or a destination dress!

But it covers the bits, so if she likes it and it makes her smile, that's great. I just hope the flower girl wasn't too upset.

Plus, I'm willing to bet that this bride will wear this dress over and over again.

I think that if you can pull it off, rock on! I can't wear that many ruffles without looking like I'm in costume, but I do have friends who can...and this bride can. I love it!

I think the skirt is underwear. It's a crinoline to be worn under another garment to puff out the skirt. The top looks like a little girl took another crinoline and wore it upside down as a top. I'm firmly on the side of "wear whatever makes you a happy bride" but that doesn't mean I'm not going to judge it as fashion (although I'd never tell the bride what I thought). ????
