To Die For!!!!!

Date:January 22, 2012
"I wore this dress for my wedding on 9.25.2011. It's SO gorgeous. It's not over done, there's not too much beading or fluff but the structure and fabric are to die for. NOTHING cheap about this dress, It's pure elegance. If you want to look like an effortlessly beautiful bride, this is the gown for you. My only complaint is that if you are petite like me, the weight of the dress can be a problem. It easily weighs about 15lbs because the fabric is so rich and dense. But the wonderful ladies who did my fitting put extra padding in the bust and took the dress in in the waist so it would stay up! Overall this is a 5 star dress. I never wanted to wear white, I never wanted to wear a ballgown, and I never wanted to wear satin... But this dress changed everything :) That's how beautiful it is."

TERRIFIC

Date:January 13, 2012
"This is a BEAUTIFUL dress and the materials are flawless. It fits like a glove to my body and I only needed 1.5" taken in. It looks fabulous and I feel like a queen.
It is not too poofy, and it isn't drab and straight to the floor. It gives just enough POP to your day.
There are bra inserts already built in. You can go BRA LESS and feel lovely! I want more cleavage than it gives by not wearing bra, so I am getting cup inserts. It's going to be magnificent for my big day in 21 days!
Best of luck to you all in your choice. Get what flatters your body no matter your size! I am a sz 14 C cup and this dress slims me and I feel LOVELY."

"Lovely dress for the price... I knew I wanted a ball gown but something with clean lines, nothing over the top or Cinderella like. This dress was so elegant for my winter wedding, with just the right amount of detail. I wish I could get married again just to wear it one more time. I reccommand this gown to ANY and ALL brides, it really is a head turner!"

Dream Dress

Date:May 29, 2011
"I had a great experience buying my dress! This dress wasn't available to try on so my wonderful sales associate found two dresses to try for fit. There were 2 available only! and one being my size I ordered. Ironically my daughter had a fitting for her dress and my dress had come it a few days early so the sales associates squoze me in to try on my dress, they were all really excited to see it because it wasn't available in their store. All around shopping for my dress was a pleasure! Its my advice tho; to have a good idea what you want before shopping because its way more fun!

"I walked in to David's with a list of dresses I intended to try on, but as I passed this dress on the mannequin, it stole my breath away, and I asked my consultant to grab it, too. I fell in love. I wanted the classic, bridal ball gown without too much fluff and fuss, and this is perfect. I feel regal, royal, and yet uncluttered with overzealous applique and beading. It's simple, but not dull, and still unique in its shape and gentle pleating. I am so excited to receive my dress and wear it on the big day!"

"I found a few dresses from the David' Bridal website that I liked.. However, trying them on was a different story.. Most of the dresses were made cheaply and the fabric was terrible... Untill.... THIS one!!! This dress was by far my favorite... It was made perfectly and looked way more expensive then what I had perchased it for... The fabric was ideal and compared to many top quality designer dresses... I was however dissappointed when I had heard about the white collection.. I had to check those dresses out myself... Thank goodness I picked this one... The white collections fabric and quality doesnt even compare... If you want a dress that fits right, fabric flawless, and something that looks like you spend thousands instead of hundreds.... Then this is your dress.."

Beautiful gown

Date:September 27, 2010
"I went into David's Bridal, tried on three dresses. This was my first pick before going to the store and when I put it on it was perfect. I can't wait to wear it in a couple of months. The dress has a very romantic, classic look to it. The bead work around the waist is tasteful, and once you have the dress on the back is gorgeous!"

"I initially went out to look at dresses wanting something with straps,sleek with an old hollywood feel. However everything I thought would be great on my figure was... not. So I trusted my consultant and she pulled this dress for me- AMAZING! I felt curvy and beautiful. Is just the right amount of poof and fits awesome! I bought it right there and havent looked back since!"

Simply Beautiful

Date:August 30, 2010
"I had ordered another dress, but couldn't get this one off my mind so I went back and ordered this elegant dress. It is simply beautiful! A classic dress that is timeless. I love the way it fits me. The dress has just the right amount of bling without being too over the top. I can't wait to wear it. My experience at DB was awesome.......even when I changed my order."
