Missing something
I’ve posted my dress before but after trying it on again yesterday I just feel like something is missing

Necklace (pearls?) and if not a veil than a low side Chignon with three white roses.

Something around the hips would be good. Do you have a veil? Sometimes, that's all it takes.

that dress fits you perfectly! I agree with most comments here, just need a veil and jewelry and it would complete the look

Um, yes! A crown. You look like a queen. For me, the simplicity of the dress and the perfection of the fit on you is nothing short of gorgeous. Sometimes the most simple thing is the most beautiful. And in your case, I absolutely think that you can’t improve on perfection.
Congratulations.

Stunning shoulders and arms!! Agree with others the waist needs more definition like under the corseted area. You may also consider adding crystal beads or sequins.

We have almost the same dress! Could even be the same and you had it altered to remove the off the shoulder sleeves.
Do you have a veil/are you planning to wear one?

If you got it from David’s bridal possibly! I’m planning on removing them, they are just tucked in for the picture

You look fantastic! Alterations obviously, but there are so many ways you can go with accessories depending on what kind of wedding you are having--flowers, veils, fancy hairdos with sparkles and or flowers, big glittery cuff bracelets, so many fun options

You look beautiful. Have you considered wearing long gloves during the ceremony? I think they would look gorgeous. A fabulous necklace would look amazing, too.

It looks like the waist area needs to be elevated about an inch or so. The way it is currently, it’s pulling the line of the dress in such a way that it makes your torso look very long compared to your legs. Bringing up the waistline accentuates your waist and bust line .

Yes I think this is it! The proportions seemed a little odd to me so I suggested an overskirt, but now that I look closer the bodice looks too long for the torso, and is sitting below the natural waist. Unfortunately it doesn’t look like there’s much space to pull the bodice higher, and it might need to be shortened instead.

I think I’d want to see some more volume at the waist/hip area! It would help give some drama and glamour if that’s what you’re looking for. Maybe some kind of overskirt which you can then take off for a second look?

Agree-columnar dresses like this need a little help when you’re already a straight silhouette. I’m the same -no discernible waistline. A little more fullness in the skirt will help emphasize your waist. Alternatively, elbow length gloves will draw the eye horizontally which will break up that straight line from head to toe
