"All I can say is that this gown has an effortless, classic beauty to it. It's simple, but has all the extra something you could ever want. I tried on ten dresses and it came down to this one and a Vera Wang. I'm so, so, so happy I decided on this one. I knew from the first moment I saw it that I was going to LOVE it. I'm a size 14 and it fits like a glove and it's flattering in all the right places. It's going to be perfect for my romantic beach wedding."

"I just got married in Jamaica on April 4, 2012. The dress is absolutely beautiful. I was getting comments on it all day and night by people. It is worth at least trying it on. Best decision I made."

My Perfect Dress

Date:April 11, 2012
"My David's Bridal Consultant actually picked this out for me! She told me it would look fabulous on me. This was the very last dress I tried on, which was number 12!!! I didn't think I would like it because it was not what I wanted at all, but when I put it on, I looked fabulous in it!!! My MOH and my grandma cried!!! This is my perfect dress!"

"This is a dress that I tried on initially solely for my MOH's pleasure. It was her pick and I promised I'd at least put it on. I am only 5 feet tall and wear a size 14 in street clothes, so the dress I tried on is a size 16. Short and not skinny, I wasn't sure what to expect but I certainly did not expect to fall in love with this dress! It was everything I thought I didn't want - ruffly, ball-gown-y and heavy - but because of these elements it makes me feel so beautiful. It is gorgeous - a definite stunner. In the store, other peoples' families came over to gush over me in this dress, which was slightly embarrassing but also kind of amazing. At least try it on...this is a dress that makes you feel like a bride!"

Elegant Romance

Date:April 2, 2012
"I had no clue what kind of wedding dress I wanted when I first started looking. I saw this dress online and fell in love. It was elegant and looked like a couture runway dress. It was in my budget here at David’s Bridal. I had gone to a few higher end dress shops but they couldn’t find a dress like this without getting up to $3,000+. I knew that I had to get it! I am 5’7 and was hopping that I would not have to get it hemmed and with a big hoopskirt underneath and a short 1.5inch heels I will not have to. I tried on the dress in a size 10 and it felt a little big. But my consultant told me that it was just stretched out from people trying it on so much. But I ended up calling back and changing my order to a size 8, because I knew I wanted to lose weight. I was worried before it came that it might be way too small. But I tried it on and it fit! It would have been a disaster if I had ordered the size 10 because they can only take it in 2 dress sizes. Now at least I can lose weight and not worry. I can not wait to wear my dream dress and marry my dream man on July 6th, 2013."

"I seen this dress online and fell in love. I tried on five wedding dresses at Davids Bridal, but this was the first one I tried on, and the one I chose. I ordered the dress in white. It's so different but yet perfect in every way. If I could wear it every day, I would:)"

Most amazing, unique dress ever!

Date:March 7, 2012
"I have always wanted a dress like this, something flattering, unique, fun and beautiful all at the same time and this is it!!! I was nervous because I saw this online and I was so excited to try it on I was just hoping it was everything I wanted it to be and it was certainly everything and more. The pictures don't do it justice, the top of the dress is so flattering, it hugs your curves and slims you while the bottom of the dress has beautiful flowers with pearls & jewels inside each. This is a great find, looks so much more expensive then it really is, I can't wait to wear it next May!!!"

I Can't wait till my wedding day!

Date:February 26, 2012
"I picked up my dress last week. I absolutely love this dress. I am a little scared about the price that it is going to cost to alter because of the detailing, but I would not have picked a different dress. It is a heavy dress but a price that I am willing to pay for beauty. I know this dress is going to surprise my fiancee and my guest! I cant wait till June 15th, my wedding day!!!"

I love this dress

Date:February 26, 2012
"I went into Davids Bridal today with my 4 year old daughter just to get a running start on dress shopping. While I was picking out other dresses she said " mommy look at all the flowers, try this one on" I had no idea what the dress was like but I wanted to please her so I did...... From the minute I put it on I was sold I LOVE THIS DRESS!! I can't wait for my husband to see me"

I Actually Had That Moment

Date:February 20, 2012
"I went to David's Bridal thinking I was buying one dress. I saw this one when I walked in the door. I tried on the other dress and it wasn't what I remembered, so I wanted to try others on. The moment I put this dress on, I could feel my face light up! My mom and I knew! I can't wait for my groom to see me! Wedding Bliss has turned me into a girly girl!"

I just knew!!!

Date:January 16, 2012
"The moment I tried this dress I just knew it was for me. This dress compliments your curves and the bottom is just absolutely stunning. I felt like a princess! I always wanted a sweetheart neckline and this dress just delivers in every sense of the word. I can't wait until my dress comes and I can't wait to get all my jewelry for it as well. I got in ivory."

"My maid of honor saw this gown's skirt of flowers in store and suggested I try it on as a joke. As soon as I stepped out of the dressing room, everyone with me knew it was the perfect dress! I got so many compliments on the day, and I couldn't have been happier with my purchase. It is important to know that this dress is a big tailoring job if you need to get it altered, and bustling is tricky because the skirt is very, very, very heavy. However, I was so happy with it that I highly recommend the gown to anyone wanting to add a bit of fun to their ceremony!"

Like it was made for me..

Date:January 12, 2012
"My parents just purchased this dress for me and I am in love with it. The moment I tried it on I knew that this was my dress..and it was the first one I tried on..It looked and felt like it was made for me and I can't wait to walk down the isle in it..It was so different in comparison to the other dresses in David's Bridal and for me thats exactly what I was looking for..different..The dress gives you a great silhouette and the detail in the skirt alone is going to make for amazing photo's..I'll post pictures after the wedding! Good luck!"

I had a totally differant gown picked out and this is one my mom found, but after I put it on it really grew on me & I knew it was MY dress. I ordered it in white & cant WAIT to see it. I am one very happy blushing bride today. Thanks David's of Winston-Salem for everything today"

"I LOVE this dress! David's Bridal was my first and only stop for trying on dresses. I tried on about 6 or 7 dresses and this was the last one I tried on. I had originally fallen in love with another dress but then I tried this one on and it won me over. It was gorgeous on. Especially the back! I just love how it fits - it's so flattering! And all the details are just beautiful. It has such a romantic look. I can't wait to wear it next October!"
