This dress was my dream come true. I'm rather an old soul at heart, so naturally I wanted something mature, classy, and romantic. From the moment I slipped into the dress, I could picture myself getting married in it. My wedding was a garden wedding with the reception being in a renovated carriage house, so it fit the theme beautifully. The dress is an Oleg Cassini trumpet, which makes for a flattering fit. The lace is ivory with a champagne underlay, which makes the layers of lace pop to perfection. Chantilly lace lines the neckline, and the lace addition in the back adds a delicate touch of beauty. Buttons run from the V of the dress in the back all the way down to the floor. The train is majestic, as you can see in several of the photos. It fans out beautifully with lace appliques all around the hem.
I purchased the dress new from David's Bridal, and had several alterations done, which I will list in the section below. I purchased the dress in September of 2013, and got married June 7, 2014. I wore the dress to the ceremony and reception.
This dress made me feel like a princess on my wedding day, and I know it will make you feel like the beautiful bride you are. This dress would be lovely for a variety of weddings ranging from country, classic, vintage, or black tie.
