Before alterations:
Ignore the skin spillage on the top of the dress, hopefully it will be fixed when I go to get it altered. Also, I plan on changing the straight neckline to a sweetheart neckline. Pictures are thanks to my maid of honor Cheyenne who stayed at David's Bridal for 3+ hours with me trying on dresses.

A Little Tease
I bought the above dress in March of 2009 and after having it in my closet for a while I was beginning to think that this dress looked more like a high school prom dress and less like something that would make me look more mature, elegant, and worried that it made me look more like a child. My hope is that a few alterations will make it look better but I found the below dress on Casablanca's web site (it's the 1945 dress) and decided to try it on. This is a little pricey for me but if certain conditions are met I might get this one to wear for the day of instead.
Update - 05/03/2010
As much as I liked the Casablanca dress, the conditions that I though would have happened didn't. So with that I'll be keeping the current dress that I have, change the straight neckline to a sweetheart, and try and loose some weight so I don't have to let the dress out a lot.
For the Night
After a bit of consideration and research on Vegas temperatures, I decided that it would probably be best to purchase a much lighter, more breathable dress. This way I can go out on the town in a dress that I won't end up a soggy, sweaty mess in by the end of the night. I found this little number online at eBay and after showing my man I decided to purchase it. It's a little see-through but with the right undergarments I should be able to pull this off.
