That being said I guess I should put my dress up here too! Sorry it is the stock photo, the picture of me in my actual dress got deleted from my sister's phone, so I will just have to wait until alteration time to get another. :(

 

I got it in diamond white so that I don't match the sand lol, and I am getting rid of the bow. I am also thinking about changing the neckline to make it more of a sweetheart, but still undecided about that part.

I found my dress at the Bridal Garden in NYC. It is a non-profit who donates all of their proceeds to educational programs for children. It was a very laid back experience and it was nice to not buy into the "wedding machine". I was able to take the dress home with me that very day! I am altering the neckline to sweetheart, the back to come down in a v, instead of straight across, adding buttons all the way down the back, and removing the underlayer, where it hits the floors, so it will only be lace gliding over the sand!! I'm  going to wait about 6 months to start the alterations though.

Your dress is absolutely beautiful, the detailing is so, so pretty, I haven't see anything like it before.

And thank you all so much! I actually found it on the second day I went looking and just couldn't take my eyes off of it!!!

That sounds like an awesome experience!  Gorgeous dress too by the way!  Might have to see if they have any stores like that here in vancouver!
