The Dress

This dress made me feel absolutely gorgeous on our wedding day! Dress is from Essense of Australia and is predominantly tule with lace floral appliqués. There are minimal sparkle details on the floral appliqués. Bodice is mostly sheer especially if you are standing outside. The sheerness isn’t too revealing as I wore this dress for our church ceremony. The bodice has built-in cups for support. Dress is ivory/blush in color. This dress is super flattering at every angle even while sitting down! There is a train in the back and the dress is extremely clean because both our ceremony and reception were indoors. I also will include my cathedral length veil with lace appliqués that originally cost $360 with the purchase! The dress twirls beautifully and was super fun to dance in!

Alterations

Length has been cut off the bottom to fit my 5’3” frame. I wore flats on our wedding day so the length is exactly 5’3”. The waist has been taken in. The shoulders have been taken in to provide extra support for the bust. The V neck in the front was slightly closed because it originally went down to my midsection. A 5-hook bustle was added to the back and is pictured.
