My dress: “It was beautiful with a strapless, sweetheart bodice. The A-line skirt was ruched with a side front pickup and a chapel length train. My mom actually found this dress. The first wedding dress shop we walked into, she saw it and said she wanted me to try it on. This was the first dress I tried on. When I put the veil on, my mom and I both got emotional because we knew this was the one. I tried on several other dresses, but we kept coming back to this one. I felt extremely comfortable in my wedding dress, and I am so glad that my mom saw it.

Funny enough, when my dress came in and I put it on, it wouldn’t zip. I had a slight panic attack. Then several of shop workers came over and pushed, pulled, tugged, pushed, pulled, tugged. Finally, they got it to zip. I’ll be honest, it gave me that extra motivation that I needed to lose a couple pounds before the wedding. On my wedding day, it fit like a glove. When I look at my pictures, I’m so glad I had a little extra motivation to lose a couple of pounds. Every girl wants to look her amazing on her wedding day, and I definitely feel like I looked like a princess.”

My dress: “I was not one of those brides that tried on a wedding dress and instantly fell in love at first sight! Finding my wedding dress was not easy for me! I must have tried on over 50 gowns and went to about 6 different bridal shops. I wanted to make sure that I would find the perfect dress out there for me! I was a bit discouraged because all of the dresses I tried on tended to be strapless which was not what I wanted. V-necks flatter my shape so much more. Finally I went to a shop called ’Becker’s Bridal‘ and I was instantly in love with this intimate shop. The customer service was outstanding and the lady who helped me brought me this dress right away. I tried on this dress and I just knew it was the one. I couldn’t take the grin off my face! It was everything I was looking for classic elegance, plunging neckline, low-back, sparkling bead work, and whimsical chiffon! It was sexy, yet classy and fit my girly and feminine personality so much!”
