recently got married and I used this for my ceremony and a different dress for my reception. Beautifully made and designed and still in excellent condition. And SO figure flattering :-) I wore this dress for less than 1 hour. Asking $1000 OBO. Also selling accessories (shoes, jewelry, head jewelry if interested). Dress is a size 14, but of course that's formal size not street size. Also my reception gown was a Sottero as well and it was a size 18. I've attached a size chart for this gown as well. Both dresses have a corset bodice which allows for you to easily lose or gain weight and still have a great fit. * Dress was professionally hemmed to be floor length in the front and still has a train in the back. I'm 5'0 and wore 5" platform heels for the ceremony. Description of the dress is below: Sottero "Adorae" Fit and flare gown with sweetheart neckline and available with zipper or corset closure. Demir Stretch Satin provides sleek luster to this slender silhouette. Ruching envelopes the bodice and asymmetrically plummets below the waist, while the train pours into a gorgeous balloon hem. Maggie Sottero Adorae- paid 1289+ tax and $175+ tax for alterations (for the balloon hem to be taken up) ***Also selling my reception gown: Perfectly posh hi-lo dress by Flirt by Maggie Sottero. Wore for less than 1 hour, in perfect condition. Paid over $700 for the dress including tax and alterations (no hemming, but they created a bustle for dancing). Asking $500 OBO. Dress would be perfect for a wedding, prom, or any other formal event. Size 18, but of course that's formal size not street size. Reception dress description: The exquisite design of this strapless Flirt by Maggie Sottero P1630 hi-lo dress is sure to tickle you pink! Its sweetheart bodice boasts fine ruching and subtle vertical stripes. A lavishly embellished belt fits along the natural waistline. Bold, oversized ruffles tumble down the hi-lo skirt to add plenty of drama.

I looked at your pics and you looked better than the model Sottero used to sell the dress. Awesome photography and your body was truly made for that dress! I loved my dress but I got married outside overlooking the beach in Cancun, there was no way I was wearing that for more than 45 minutes tops! lol. I loved the 2nd dress, it was lightweight, easy to move in and I had them make a bustle though I didn't have to use it. Congrats to you newlywed! :-)

You absolutely will as long as you make that the priority. Unfortunately I kind of prioritized my wedding last and the days, weeks, months leading up to my wedding I was juggling, work, school an internship, etc. My wedding planning was haphazard at best, we missed our planes two times prior to our wedding day, half of the things I wanted to do for my wedding were NOT done and the list goes on and on.... BUT that day was awesome, everything worked out and what wasn't done didn't matter. My advice is to make the marriage the number one priority (I'm a marriage and family therapist so that's always first lol), complete all planning that can be done and stop 30 days prior to the wedding. Whatever isn't done let it go and remember no one knows but you and everyone will have fun if you have fun. Enjoy!!

The following message I posted to my June Playacar Palace Brides thread. I used Photos In Cancun and to make a long story short I actually booked them the DAY OF o_0 . Thankfully they sent a a wonderful photographer and his assistant and they worked out something that fit our budget... The non-wedding pics are not their work, but they took all of the pics shown for the wedding and reception. Stuart was who they sent to do the work, but I worked everything out with Derek and he's AWESOME. Hey guys haven't sent the photographer the edits I want to have done yet but I'm going to post a few pics of the wedding. It was awesome! :-) The following pics are of the resort (Playacar Palace), cocktail hour and rehearsal dinner, wedding ceremony, reception and the photo shoot we did with our resort credits before we went to Secrets Silversands for our honeymoon. Epic wedding and honeymoon!!

Thanks Hey there sorry so long to reply, this was at the Luna Lounge which I think is on the 5th floor overlooking the pool area. I'm not sure if it holds 60 or 100 people max. I loved it and the staff was excellent!

Thank you! I felt amazing that day :-)
