The Dress

GORGEOUS DREAM WEDDING DRESS by Monique Lhullier - Maeve dress! I LOVED my dress and want another bride to feel perfect in it on her special day!! This stunning A-line ball gown dress was the one from the moment I put it on. It has a nude underlay topped with a beautiful white/ivory lace handmade and unique to this designer. The dress looks amazing in photographs and is so comfortable, not heavy and very easy to put on/move around in. The train is one of the most beautiful parts of the dress, and is easily bustled with a seamless hemline that allows the dress to twirl perfectly while dancing.

I wore this dress ONLY for the ceremony and pictures. I had a separate reception dress.

I will include the cathedral length veil that I wore with the dress ($300) for free. The dress was professionally dry cleaned and has no signs of wear or stains.

The material is very durable. This dress is absolutely perfect if you need to transport it because it does not wrinkle. This dress has been professionally dry cleaned.

Alterations

-The bodice was brought in to fit my waist, and bra cups were added but are easily removable
-The dress was hemmed to 5'8" height
-The straps were replaced with slightly wider ones that wouldn't dig in and leave marks on the skin in pictures
-One layer of white tulle was taken out to make the dress less overwhelming/wide
-Bustle ties were added to allow for the train to be bustled underneath for a seamless hemline (ballroom bustle), but are easily removable. The very last picture in my listing is the dress bustled with myself wearing higher heels on purpose to keep the dress off the floor. The dress will hit the floor at a height of 5'8 though. In the last picture, I am 5'11 with the heels.
