 Skip to the end to see which dress, veil and everything we chose to order!

 ok, here's the deal -- my 10 year old son wants to dress up as a bride, basically for bridal portraits or possibly a pretend wedding... so he wants to wear a complete communion dress or miniature bride outfit -- the dress, veil, gloves, tights, low heel shoes, jewelry, bouquet and all... we've discussed everything, all the pitfalls, the what ifs and everything else, even discussed it on another forum here... he has dressed up in girl costumes for costume parties in the past, he has some friends and family that seem ok with it, and I'm NOT trying to turn him into a girl, this is something he would like to do and it would make him happy... he is a great kid, very intelligent, he just has some different interests...

I have agreed to go ahead with providing him something nice for a special bridal occasion, so obviously we're looking for something with a wedding gown look... He's about a size 10-12 for this company... So here's the finalists for the dress, just click on the links -- http://www.myfirstcommunion.com/pd_tabitha.cfm, with the same veil (his hair is long and he can wear it up)... or this one -- http://www.myfirstcommunion.com/pd_arianna.cfm ... or this one -- http://www.myfirstcommunion.com/pd-brandy-first-communion-dress.cfm ... or this one -- http://www.myfirstcommunion.com/pd-traci-first.cfm with the same headband veil and his hair down... that's probably the least expensive because it's on clearance!
one other possible veil -- http://www.myfirstcommunion.com/pd_erica_first.cfm

I'm just looking for feedback on these selections, what do you think?
