The Dress

I was extremely anxious about my dress being a plus sized bride but I honestly felt amazing in it! From the delicate straps, to the lace details and beading I felt for one of the first times in my life pretty.

I had some moderations to the dress it had to be taken in at the bodice by a few inches. I am 5 foot 5 tall and wore fit flops with a 3 inch wedge. I did not have any length taken off the dress and it was too long for me but went with what my seamstress advised. The dress has a zip back with button detail.

This is the advertisement from the Essence of Australia:
Delicate and dreamy, Essense of Australia has done it again. This fresh, modern style takes on an organic flair with the lace-encrusted bodice, for a look that's loaded with detail while light to the touch. A soft sweetheart neckline with organic finishing is complemented by thin, beaded straps for a pop of shine as it opens the neckline and highlights the face. Large floral elements shower throughout the skirt, featuring multiple layers of tulle to create a light and airy effect. The open scoop back completes this youthful yet classic style, and zips beneath fabric-covered buttons. This gown is also available in plus sizes.
