I love the unique style and high quality of Maggie Sottero wedding gowns and that is what led me and my large entourage of women in my large Italian family to a store in Boston. I was not intending to purchase a dress that day as it was the first store I had been to but as soon as I stood on that pedestal with the large mirrors, decadent chandelier, and the most important women in my life looking at me with tears in their eyes and gasping with delight I knew it was the dress I would be wearing on my wedding day. It was so different from any others I had seen and knew it would make a lasting impression. My husband, Shane, loved it as well as everyone at the wedding. People who we don't even know that have seen our photographers blog comment on it to us all the time - stopping us in local stores as we live in a small town. My husband and I got asked to be in a photo shoot as the bride and groom models in November - I am so excited to be able to wear this special item again only a few months after our wedding! Thank you Maggie - you made our wedding day a magical fairy tale - which all design aspects were focused and inspired by "the dress"!
