The Dress

I LOVED my dress so much that nothing would make me more happy than being able to share this dress with someone else.

A timeless classic with ballgown tulle skirt, deep V back, and sleeves, the simplicity and elegance of this dress allowed me to wear the dress (instead of the dress wearing me), and made me feel like a princess on my wedding day.

I fell in love with it the minute I put it on - it was the very first dress I tried! In addition to stealing my heart - it was a crowd pleaser. Although simple, everyone adored it and filled my evening with compliments: from my husband to my college friends to my in-law's friends to my grandmother.

While it made me feel sophisticated and regal, the greatest perk was how comfortable I was. The tulle skirt gave me freedom to easily dance the night away and didn't have the added weight of a satin bottom while carrying the grace of a ballroom style dress. The train had a simple bustle that was perfect to convert a formal church wedding to the fun celebrations at our reception. To aid to my comfort level, I also wore flats the whole day! The sleeves were perfect for a mid-November wedding in the northeast, but not tight and stiff and I was able to hug all my guests with ease. I did need to use fashion tape to keep the back from showing the hanger straps (happy to include as well). The ballroom cut also made me not have to worry about sucking in or letting loose.

How have I made it this far without talking about the buttons?! A simple, yet classy statement the buttons down my sleeves and back of dress were my favorite part! All come buttoned for you!

The dress has minimal alterations, the hem was trimmed to fit my natural height of 5'8 with flats and the sleeves were brought ever so slightly. I am pretty narrow without much of a bust or hips, but shouldn't matter given the ballgown nature. The dress does have cups - I believe Cs.

Happy to show additional pictures or chat more! Also would be willing to add my veil and tiara for additional cost.
