This was the perfect dress for my "second look" at the reception. I wanted something easier to move in than my ballgown, but still bridal. The pockets were great for keeping my phone handy for selfies with friends. The fabric moves really nicely when you dance, and the V-neck shows off a necklace perfectly. It’s definitely a dress you need to iron or steam thoroughly, as it arrived pretty wrinkled, but once the wrinkles were out, it looked smooth and polished. It’s a great balance of comfort and style without breaking the bank.

I bought this dress as a backup because my original custom dress was delayed, but I ended up loving this one more! It has such a clean, modern silhouette. I wore it for our elopement on the coast, and the wind caught the skirt beautifully. The satin is heavy, which is great for structure, but it can get a little warm if you're in direct sunlight for too long. The fit was surprisingly accurate to the chart; I ordered a standard size and didn't need any alterations except for a bustle. It’s simple, chic, and photographs incredibly well. Highly recommend for a modern bride.

The straps stayed in place perfectly, so I wasn’t constantly adjusting the top. If you are looking for a classic, clean look that you can accessorize to make your own, this is the one. Just be ready to steam it well!

I wore it for a rustic barn wedding, and it contrasted so well with the wood and fairy lights. I didn't have to worry about delicate lace snagging on anything. I spilled a tiny bit of champagne on the skirt, and it wiped right off without staining, which was a miracle.

OH MY GOODNESS! I fell in love with this dress the moment I saw it in the photos. And let me tell you, it's even more stunning in person!
