Beach Wedding Dress for Sale - Never worn, tags still on!

Hi girls! It pains me to write this but.......we have decided to not go through with the beach wedding. Our goal was to have a simple wedding with little fuss and planning and the beach wedding evolved into this horrible monster! It has been a NIGHTMARE!!! That's what we get for dealing with very traditional people i.e. relatives, I guess. Anyway, wish me luck because we are keeping our same date so now I have 8 weeks to plan a traditional wedding at home.....yes EIGHT WEEKS!!! I am actually somewhat excited about the autumn theme I am imagining in my mind and I'm really excited that some VIP guests who were not going to be able to make it to the beach, can now come and share our special day. So here's my deal....I bought what I thought was the most beautiful beach wedding dress. But now that I am envisioning something completely different for our autumn theme back home, this dress is not fitting in the picture. I will try to attach some pics if I can figure it out but it's made by Oleg Cassini who was the one responsible for making Jacqueline Kennedy the most fashionable first lady EVER! The dress is a size 12 with no alterations. It has the princess feel with the full skirt but has roushing on the top that I thought would go great with a tiki torch setting! And my favorite part of all is the flower on the hip. I was planning on removing the white flower and adding a colored flower....I thought about putting a flower there that matched my bridesmaids dresses to pull the look all together...and then of course, a beautiful flower in my hair. The dress was retailing at $999.00 and I would be willing to sell it for $700 or best offer plus you pay for shipping. Yes I'm losing money on this but I can't just leave a perfectly beautiful wedding dress hanging in my closet. Let me know if you are interested!!!

Okay, 30 minutes later,

I cannot figure out how to post the pics big enough so you can see the dress clearly. I will try to work on this a little more, but in the meantime, if you want me to send you pics as attachments via email then pm me your email address and I'll send them to you.

Okay I think this will be way too small to see any details but it might give you a general idea....Oh I also forgot to mention that the skirt is tulle so it would be easy to shake the sand off....

From what I can see on the dress it looks beautiful. I'm sure that would make a bride very happy.

Is there anything that I/we can do to make your beautiful autumn wedding happen?
