This is my dream wedding dress worn on the happiest day of my life! It was beautiful in an outdoor/garden setting. My husband and I are still happily married ten years later. When visiting my parents I came across the preservation box in one of their closets. I am hoping that someone else will get as much enjoyment out of the dress as I did, rather than having it sit in the box for another few decades. I paid $250 to have it preserved after the wedding and it is truly "like new."
Dress notes:
- Color is "Ivory/Gold" as it has ivory lace over a "gold" shade that gives a beautiful depth and elegance to the dress.
- I liked the beading because it was subtle and didn't stand out too much in real life. It seems to depend on the lighting, which was darker inside than being outside in natural light like it was on my wedding day.
- Back zipper hidden underneath beautiful buttons down the back of the dress.
- Happy to send pics of the bustle hooks that were added so you know what to look for when you receive it.
- I am wearing the dress in all of the pictures uploaded, both on my wedding day and then the recent one to look at it after the preservation. The dress is no longer made, but designer pics might still be available online: Mori Lee by Madeline Gardner, Style 2676.
- As with any wedding dress, it will need to be steamed.
