    I found my lovely!!! I went through many variations to get to her, and here is a bit of my journey.....

    first of all, I dreamed of an all lace dress, but then when I tried on what I thought was my dream dress, I found out I didnt like it very much...

    I FOUND IT!!!! (very picture heavy) :  wedding dress alfred angelos enzoani belt Headless Lace

     

    undeterred I moved on to something a little less lacy, but still not really loving it...

    Yes it's too big, but I still wasnt feeling it

    Next up, a silky dress that I started to love...

    really liked it, then tried on this structured lovely....

     

    I FOUND IT!!!! (very picture heavy) :  wedding dress alfred angelos enzoani belt Top Contender

     

    doing this really helped me to understand I wanted something a bit structured and then...I found the ONE. I added a belt for added drama and I absolutely LOVE how it looks.

    Without further ado....

    Love that dress.  I haven't seen anything like it - totally unique.

    My dress was something I had never seen before and it was part of the reason I really really loved it!

    Congrats on the find!

    Believe it or not it's actually an Alfred Angelos, but it looks NOTHING like the dress model

    I FOUND IT!!!! (very picture heavy) :  wedding dress alfred angelos enzoani belt Bd0455d0 B381 4af5 99f8 9088a9d8a71f.enlargedNormal1

    the wonderful assistant at RK Bridal(ah-ma-zing) added the belt which I think is Enzoani's Diana and it just took the dress to a whole new level!

    Nice!! I saw a dress like that and wasn't sure it was for me, and I didn't need to tempt myself with any more, but it looks awesome on you! I love watching the transformation of dresses from "oh thats pretty..better..ooh! better, and best!" You definitely found the one!

    it really shows your curves!! great choice. You know its funny because i tried a dress similar to the 1st one you tried and i liked it... but not loved it. then i ended up getting a dress with no lace and loved it. hehe

    Yes, yes, YES!  I love the final dress, because it minimizes your bust in a GOOD way and your waist looks absolutely tiny with the belt on!  Congratulations on the finding her!

    That gown looks incredible on you!  The full lace dress was overwhelming you & hiding your shape, and this one makes you look 20lbs lighter than the lace one does!  (Please don't take that the wrong way!)  Fantastic dress! :)
