Well my goodness, Kitty. I actually agree with your OPINION so it couldn't be you who I "made to feel bad." On whose behalf are you speaking? :confused:

Picture yourself 30 years from now looking back at your life through photo albums --- do you want to see yourself in a dress that some salesgirl told you was "age appropriate" or do you want to see yourself in the most beautiful wedding gown that you absolutely loved???

Who cares what "the real fashion experts" have to say???? What is "age appropriate"???? I guess that's decided by "the real fashion experts." Why should it be "simple"???

This YOUR LIFE --- not the "fashion experts" life. PLEASE DO NOT be told what to wear! Choose the dress that you like -- if you don't, you will regret this for the rest of your life. This is your opportunity to make up for and to have what you didn't earlier. GO FOR IT!!! Your ceremony isn't going to be on the cover of Vogue no matter what dress you pick so WHO CARES what other people think is "appropriate." Don't miss your chance to fulfill your dream of wearing a whatever wedding dress you want to wear --- this is YOUR day, LIVE it, ENJOY it and REMEMBER it for the rest of your life.... PLEASE!!!! :)

I vote for the wedding dress. This is your one and only life -- do what makes you happy. You deserve the opportunity to wear a wedding dress. Don't deny yourself this simple wish. Obviously the first time around you regretted the decision not to wear a wedding gown. Don't make that mistake again!!! Let's face it, white isn't about being a virgin anymore. If it were, oh my, there would be very few white wedding gowns. Grab a girlfriend/sister/daughter and hit the bridal shops. Find the dress of your dreams -- don't get what anyone "thinks" is "appropriate" for you. Buy the dress you fall in love with to renew your vows with the man you fell in love with. No one will be laughing, I promise you. Everyone loves a wedding and everyone loves a bride no matter what age. And everyone loves to see a couple in love. GO FOR IT! :)

P.S. Don't forget to post pictures when you get back!!! :D
