I absolutely ADORED this dress!

Even though it was strapless, it was the most comfortable dress that I've ever worn! First of all, the corset-like top was beautiful. It felt snug and secure the whole night, even while dancing. It also comes with optional straps, which I actually used for the reception (they attach + detach very easily)!

The tulle silhouette was so flowy + beautiful in pictures! I highly recommend this dress - it will look gorgeous against any ceremony + reception backdrop! The A-line shape is also SUPER flattering for all shapes and sizes! I felt so comfortable + confident!

The dress also came with an optional thin, fitted ivory belt (which I completely forgot to add while getting ready because of how fast the morning went). So, it looks great with or without the belt!

From the Martina Liana website: A completely-feminine style, this strapless casual wedding dress with a tulle skirt brings all the romance. With its defined bust cup, exposed boning and sparkle, the bodice of this lace and French tulle gown has a corset-like feeling. From the empire waist, the soft tulle skirt extends to the ground, creating a slight A-line silhouette. The back of this casual wedding dress zips up.

Alterations

The only adjustments the seamstress made were to the length of the dress. It was very long to begin with, and I'm 5'8" (but 5'10" with my heels).

My seamstress also added a bustle so I could easily dance in it during the reception.
