    After months and months of searching and trying-on, I finally found my dress!!  It's the La Sposa Fanal in an oyster color.  I'm going to have it cut into more of a sweetheart neckline, and hope to dress it up with some accessories.  Any other La Sposa Brides out there??

    Thanks!  It is the Fanal.   I tried it on several months ago, and haven't been able to stop thinking about it.  Putting it on again yesterday just confirmed that it was "the one!"  I looked up pictures of it online all the time, and it seems like it's really flattering on every body type!

    Since the dress was clamped in the back when I was wearing it, I took a picture of the back of it on the hanger.

    Thanks, ladies!!  I really appreciate all the compliments!  Crebre, this is the only carrier of La Sposa I've been able to find in all of Florida, and I had to drive close to 7 hours to get it!  Good luck finding yours!  :)

    Thanks!  I'm getting married in May, but the venue is a rustic pavilion in NC, and I'm going to be using rustic fall-type colors; browns, deep reds, yellows, and persimmon.  I got the oyster color because I was thinking that it would really go well with those rich shades.
