The Dress

"Odelia is perfect for the minimalist bride looking for a bit more. This mermaid gown is sure to accentuate the bride's figure with its stretch georgette while drawing eyes from guests as lace falls from the back with its signature Enzoani train." -Enzoani Website

This dress made me feel so pretty and classy. It has a stretchy material so the tightness of the fit should not scare you. It was so easy to walk, dance, skip, dip, etc. I wanted a dress that was classy and simple, but not super plain. This dress was perfect and timeless. It will never go out of style. I have received endless compliments on the train of the dress. The veil is included with the dress, and it was a perfect compliment to the train. The lace on the veil and the train match.

My wedding shoes were 3 inches. So I was 5'10" on my wedding day with my shoes. The dress & veil have been professionally cleaned. Both are wrapped in acid-free preservation paper and placed inside of an archival box. This box is filled with nitrogen, which prevents oxidation.

The first 3 pictures were from my fittings. You can see where we added buttons on the back to be able to bustle the train. The wrinkles on the dress disappeared after I got it dry cleaned prior to the wedding day. The back of the dress has a zipper. Getting in and out of the dress was easy! The material is so comfy, even sitting was easy.

Alterations

The dress came with the side stitching which creates an hourglass shape. We added breast cups and more internal ribbing to prevent the dress from sliding down. I didn't tug at my dress once, it stayed in place perfectly. We added a few buttons on the back so the dress could be bustled. The veil is not altered.
