About the Dress

Designed in New Zealand and exclusive to Astra Bridal. I purchased it from Astra Bridal in November 2022, and wore it once in March 2023.

With a sweetheart neckline and detachable off-the-shoulder sleeves. Form fitting bodice but flows out into a beautiful lace gown. I felt amazing wearing this, it has such a princess feel! It does not feel heavy, but it is still very secure and has a built in bra so I didn't need to keep pulling it up all night (I am a 12D). Perfect for a garden party vibe! My wedding was in my parents' backyard so there are very minor marks on the underlay (not the lace) which are not noticeable (very happy to send pics at request!). I changed out of it after our first dance, so I wore it for about 4 hours. It also has a medium length train, so it has a touch of drama along with the garden wedding vibe!

Happy if you would like to try it on in Hamilton, and open to offers. This dress made me feel so beautiful on my wedding day and I would love for someone to feel the same!

Alterations

Sleeves and dress shortened slightly. Bustle added so I could tuck away the train during our first dance.
