It fit pretty snug around the waist, so I didn't need much tailoring there, though the length was a bit much for my height even with heels.

I loved the v-neck cut; it felt elegant without being too revealing for a daytime event. The cutout in the back added a nice modern touch that my friends really complimented.

The silhouette is really flattering and hugs curves in the right places. I was a bit worried the cutout would look cheap, but it’s actually done tastefully. The only thing is the zipper felt a little sticky at first, so just be gentle with it. Once it was on, I felt amazing watching the sunset. It’s a solid choice if you want style on a budget.

I grabbed this dress as a reception outfit because I wanted something lighter to change into after the ceremony. It was perfect for that! The sleeveless design let me move my arms freely, which was essential for hugging guests and tossing the bouquet. The lace isn't scratchy, which is a huge plus because I have sensitive skin.

It does wrinkle a little easily if you sit in the car for too long, so bring a steamer if you’re traveling with it.
