The Dress

I loved this dress!!! It was very comfortable, easy to get around in, the train wasn't that long so I wasn't falling over it, and other than having help getting in and out of it it wasn't difficult to get in and out of. I did wear an undergarment to hold me in place, but I was never hot. Our wedding was in March with snow on the ground and my aunt bought an ivory fur-like shoulder shawl to over it and it looked very nice while keeping me warm for outside pictures. There are buttons on the sleeves by the wrists and buttons going up the back, a zipper closes most of the back until the lace part toward the top. In getting it out and taking pictures, I looked everywhere and saw no rips, tears, holes, missing anything, or anything that was really dirty (perks to being tall). I do still have the extra pieces, included in the picture with the details, in case you need/want to add some. We added an oblong crystal ring sash with pearl centers, which was $129.99. There is also a simple vail with nothing on it, as the dress is pretty busy, that was $49.95. I will add in the essential bridal bag with all of the pockets, which was $29.95.

Alterations

They added the bustle, didn't have to adjust the length because I'm so tall, and took it in on the sides a little under my arms.
