OK, I'm not a woman and maybe just genetically I'm missing something here. But if I WAS a woman I wouldn't want to play dress up as someone else on my wedding day. Wouldn't a woman want to be herself, the most beautiful bride in the world, and be so special nobody thinks of anyone but her that whole evening? Why when a woman gets married would she want to remind people of Cinderella? Or Ariel? Or Jessica Rabbit? (Well, just save the Jessica Rabbit for the wedding night. <G>) This does not compute, Will Robinson. Dave in Dallas - The one and only! Accept no substitutes.

According to one article I found, the princesses are simply inspirations for the dresses; the colors will be much more subtle, as will the style elements. We shall see! They're supposed to be debuted at a bridal fair in NYC in April, followed by presentations at the Grand Floridian and then their availability in bridal boutiques. Patty

The dresses look like any other wedding dresses, only a Disney-phile would recognize the style elements and be able to place the princess that they come from. They're actually quite pretty. EG |
