Trinity Lynette Embellished plus size ball gown wedding dress in illusion and lace

The lace and truly timeless silhouette.

Being a plus size bride was a bit much in the beginning of dress shopping. I would have people telling me to just "hold the dress up" to myself to see how it would look, my mom pulled this dress off the rack, and as soon as I tried it on it fit PERFECTLY, it was so flattering and perfect.Only alterations were to shorten the gown. Kept the extra lace so that when I have kids I can sew a piece onto a teddy bear for them and be able to pass down a piece on their wedding day as their something old.

We got married in November at a historic hotel in downtown Tucson, Arizona. Our day was filled with family from England, Trinidad and Tobago, Mexico, and various states in the US. We were surrounded with an overwhelming amount of joy, love, and laughter. It was far from picture perfect, that in the end that is totally what made for the perfect day. I wish we could do it again every year.

There is so much I loved about this dress from the lace details to the blush color to the buttons and the sweetheart neckline and scoop back. The train was to die for! I received so many compliments and I felt absolutely gorgeous on my best day!

I felt like a true princess!

Our wedding was supposed to be March 28, 2020 but covid had other plans and we were forced to cancel. We ended up eloping and then had our big wedding on August 9, 2020. We got married in a chapel at the beach. I got to marry my best friend in front of all of our closest loved ones!
