The Dress

I've decided this dress is too nice to stay wrapped up... it is ready to make another bride's wedding day gorgeous.

Purchased: April 15, 2015 at Felice Bridal for our wedding in July 2015. Retail price: $1990. One of a kind designer gown. I was the first and only customer to try it on in the shop as it had just come in that afternoon (they hadn't even steamed it yet... but did later for me). French bustle makes dancing a joy -- but the long train is elegant for the aisle.
Size: 8 from designer fit nearly perfectly prior to alterations.
Designer: Angelina Bridal Couture
Style # 1808
Sash not included but you can pick your color and get the perfect one - I chose navy blue and paid $40 for the satin ribbon which is widely available.

Altered for $500 by Donna Beth Creations in Denver . 5'6" with additional boning in the bodice and gown shortened (embroidered edge preserved). Some taffita removed along with stand-out fabric petals that were distracting (bag of them included with dress should you want to reattach).
