Why not? It's your first wedding to this man, correct?

Mine is my second wedding, but DF's first. I have an ivory sheath type dress with spaghetti straps & beaded bodice & shear overlay, but very simple skirt, falling to just a sweep train. It's a compromise between BWW that neither of us ever had and (what I hope is) good taste, since we're not exactly teenagers (or 20s or 30s)!!!

I don't think that there's anything wrong with wearing a gorgeous wedding dress for a second wedding. The only thing you shouldn't do is wear a blusher veil (where you put part of it over your face.)

Yes you are correct
Laurie, I LOVE your dress it is beautiful!!!!!
Munchkin, I don't think I even want a veil, but I know I wouldn't wear a blusher for sure!!!
Thanks ladies, I know the style I want I guess I am just second guessing myself... I'll try to post some pictures off the web site so you can all see and then you can tell me yall's honest opinion!!

I am also a second bride but first for him. It is a new start for the two of you. Wear what you want, if that be a taditional white dress then wear it. If you had a small wedding the first time and you want a big one this time... It boils down to: it's your day, you two plan it how you want it

dress
I think you should wear the dress of your dreams. If you wanted you could play with color. I have seen some beautiful blush colored dresses, if you did not want to wear white.

There are no hard & fast rules anymore.
Second weddings use to be done quickly & quietly, without much ado.
You have lost love & found it again! What better way to celebrate that than with a wedding of your choice; not the way someone else wants the wedding or what it's suppose to be. If you have the resources to be able to afford a traditonal dress, then I say go for it.
Congratulations!
