Dress was bought at Ania Collection in Portland in April 2014, and worn for our September 2014 wedding.
The materials and design of this dress are noticeably very high quality, in beautiful intricate lace detailing on the bodice and the skirt, plus the comfortable feel of the dress on your skin. The bodice is made with boning down the sides and serious structure inside that helps flatten and tighten your whole torso and hips into the dress, but is still soft and totally comfortable to wear. The tulle is soft, not like cheaper itchy dresses - I love how it is semi-flowy and semi-poofy, not too much of either.
This dress is a perfect combination of styles to go from ceremony through reception: classic beauty with the sweetheart neck, fitted lace bodice, covered buttons down the back, semi-ballgown shape, and small-medium length pretty train, plus a fun and more modern side with its flowy, twirly, tulle skirt.
I actually have an unused brand new veil that goes perfectly too - simple ivory lace with thin ribbon trim - I never wore it due a change in hairstyles. This could be negotiated into the sale if you like.
