Re: Wedding Dress DONT'S & DO'S

Bit late to give some advice but please do listen:
1. The wedding dress should only be the highest shade of white, so similar to what Mo7 said; no cream or ivory. It must be white. Believe me, it shows, even if it has a hint of off white then you are basically saying you're a slut.
2. Long sleeves are more attractive for a woman. What man wants to see a lady's arms? If it is hot, wear cooler fabric. It is my humble belief that a woman should stay modest no matter the weather.
3. It is very slutty to draw attention to your breasts. They are there to please your husband and feed his sons, not to show off like some prostitute. Remember that your body is not your own.
4. Women are worth very little. Any True Christian Lady should know that. Do not attempt to make up for it with pearls and gold, that is misleading to your groom.
5. Modesty is everything. Cover up as much as you can and still look attractive and not like some Mudslime whore. Then put on a veil to be even more modest.

Re: Wedding Dress DONT'S & DO'S

Hello hello! Oh my goodness, it has been so long. I have been gone for so long due to some happy events. I am with child again! And my husband has recently settled an arrangement to which my eldest daughter is soon to be married. My husband is telling me she and I must sew her own wedding dress together and it must meet his approval, which I agree wholeheartedly. I have no desire for my daughter to take after her harlot of an aunt, who wore a short wedding dress that did not bother to cover up any of her upper torso besides her bosom. My daughter has actually had the nerve to ask about having a certain neckline..I believe it is called a sweetheart? I was aghast! It is not of her to want such a thing! I promptly disciplined her with a smack to the face. Any ?advice on how to guide my daughter to be a properly dressed bride?

What color wedding dress should black, Mexican and Asian women wear??

Presumably, they could wear any color they want to wear. White is a signal that the bride is a virgin. Naturally, white is not suitable for most colored women, but if one was still a virgin, white would be appropriate. However, it should be noted that white will make colored women look even darker than they already are.

Purple is fashionable among Negroes and Mexicans like bright mixed colors. I don't think Chinamen concern themselves with color. Aren't they colorblind?

Re: Wedding Dress DONT'S & DO'S

My dear mother wore a very pretty dress at her wedding, almost 100 years ago. How time flies. Sadly I am unable to upload the photos, which are now in the possession of my eldest nephew, but I found a very similar outfit.



Mother was daintier, her neckline was higher (of course!) and the long sleeves were made of silk rather than tulle. But the general effect is there.

Grace Kelly. Abandoned the Land of the Free to become a papist royal oppressor. In that photo, she's praying to Mary.

Sister Mary, I think she is praying for forgiveness. She looks as if she is asking the Lord to forgive her for leaving America. Possibly asking the Lord to give her a second chance and make a way for her to return to the USA.

Should have prayed to the patron saint of women drivers instead!

Dear Mother of Seven,

Thank you for the wise advice. I will definitely be following your advice!

God bless!

Re: Wedding Dress DONT'S & DO'S

Please bear in mind 1Timothy 2:9 In like manner also, that women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with shamefacedness and sobriety; not with broided hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly array;
It should not be a costly exercise - that is for the vain and profligate. It can cause a man to flee from the altar thinking that your expectations of him are beyond the realistic.
1) the dress should only be white. Don't contemplate any other colour, not even cream
2) I think for a summer wedding in a hot climate, short sleeves are acceptable as there is nothing more ugly than a bride with wet rings under her armpits. In cooler climes and in winter, the sleeves should come to the wrist.
3) No pearls or gold (see above)
4) There should be no hint of any cleavage and no glimpse of the upper part of breasts. I think at least a couple of inches above those parts.

Re: Wedding Dress DONT'S & DO'S

Ladies, what do you think of these five below? Please offer your opinions.
A) Is there too many decorations on it?

Does the ribbon draw too much attention to the bodice?

C) Should my dress have long sleeves

D) I don't like the square neckline, but I like the rest of the dress.

Thanks for your feedback. Titus 2:3-5.

3 The aged women likewise, that they be in behaviour as becometh holiness, not false accusers, not given to much wine, teachers of good things;
4 That they may teach the young women to be sober, to love their husbands, to love their children,
5 To be discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God be not blasphemed."

I can't get the photos to link, so I have the questions below.

1) Should the dress have any color but white? I don't think so, since white is the color of virgins. Just confirming...

2) How long should the sleeves be?

3) May my dress have any decorations?

4) What is a good length of the neckline to not tempt anyone?
