The A-line cut hides a food baby perfectly, which was great for the dinner! It arrived a bit wrinkled, obviously, but a quick steam fixed that right up. If you are on the fence, just measure yourself carefully and go for it. It’s a solid choice.

Let’s talk about the pockets! Seriously, why don't all wedding dresses have them? I wore this for my reception because I wanted something a bit lighter than my ceremony ballgown, and it was perfect for dancing. The sleeveless design kept me cool while we were partying all night. It has this really nice flow when you spin. I was worried the lace might look cheap, but it actually looks very delicate and romantic. The sizing chart was pretty accurate for me. I usually wear a size 8 and the 8 fit like a glove. It made me feel effortless and beautiful.

If you are a tall bride looking for something affordable and ready to wear, this is a great option.

For my beach wedding, I needed something that wasn't too heavy but still looked formal enough for the occasion. This dress hit the mark. The lace bodice is sturdy and holds you in well, so I didn't even need to wear a bra, which is a huge win in my book. The skirt is flowy and caught the ocean breeze really nicely. I will say, the "white" is a very bright white, so keep that in mind if you are looking for more of an ivory tone. But for a bright, sunny day, it was dazzling. Plus, I kept my lip balm in the pocket!

I was honestly so nervous about ordering my wedding dress online, but this turned out to be a pleasant surprise. I wanted something that felt classic but practical for my backyard ceremony, and the square neckline on this is just timeless. The best part? It actually has pockets! I kept my vows and a tissue in there the whole time. The lace detailing is really pretty up close, not scratchy like I feared. I did have to get the hem shortened a bit since I'm on the shorter side, but otherwise, the fit was surprisingly good right out of the bag. It felt heavy in a quality way, not flimsy at all.
