This was the first dress I tried at my first bridal appointment. When I walked out and saw my reflection in the BIG mirror, I immediately knew this was THE dress!! I tried on about 5 other dresses to be sure and none of them gave me the butterflies like this one. I loved the corset lace bodice and the fullness of the skirt. I knew I wanted a ball gown dress with a long train but I had no idea I would find a dress this beautiful. It's still hanging in the hallway behind our staircase, I can't bring myself to pack it away. I would recommend a Maggie Sottero gown to any bride!
