I tried on approximately 10 dresses before trying this one on. I fell in love immediately because it was perfect for a French countryside wedding. This Monique Lhuillier dress is very dreamy: ivory silk chiffon, gorgeous Alencon lace and buttons along the entire back of the dress. It is from her Bliss line. It is lightweight and really easy to move around in. The other dresses I tried on felt stiff but this one had a nice flow, perfect to dance the night away. It may look like a simple dress but is also quite refined in the details. Getting a new dress was out of my budget so I asked the store (Bridal Galleria in SF) if they would sell me the sample. They agreed so I bought it! I got it for 40% off, spent $430 for alterations resulting in a total cost of $2200. It’s been almost a year since our beautiful day and my husband has been nagging me to list this, especially since I was recently laid off and we have a mortgage to pay. I do adore it and would love for someone on a budget to enjoy it as much as I did. Additional pics here:
