would you wear a vera wang just because it's a vera wang?

 
Brides getting married in 2011 will be excited to discover that they will be able to buy an affordable Vera Wang wedding dress for their big day. Vera Wang has released her WHITE collection with dresses ranging from $600-$1400 exclusive to David's Bridal in America who will be the official retailer for this collection. This news comes a little too late for me but it did get me thinking about whether I would wear one of her gowns just so that I could say "I am wearing a wang". Would I chose a dress that I semi loved just to be able to say for the rest of my life...I wore a Vera Wang on my wedding day?
Confession, I hated choosing a wedding gown, I knew I wanted something simple, silk satin and elegant but I found finding something simple and silk satin just impossible. I had one very helpful sales assistant tell me if I wanted something plain and simple I wouldn't look or feel like a bride! Well who else is going to be wearing a cathedral veil on the day?? I am pretty sure no one is going to confuse me for a my aunt rose wearing Ivory on the day. The first picture is the dress my own wedding gown was modeled off. It's called "Cassandra" and it's by Vera Wang but I couldn't afford the price tag so I made some changes bought the picture to my dress maker and seven weeks later I am wearing a "Wang influence"...
