I am! This is me at my first fitting.
Your dress is absolutely gorgeous by the way!
@marlie: Your's is beautiful too! I see you're also a NYC bride. Where are you getting married? I live in NYC, but my wedding will actually be at Oheka Castle on LI.
@monamiestephanie: Thanks! I'm getting married at Tribeca Rooftop (in 18 days!).
I've never been to a wedding at Oheka Castle but I've heard wonderful things about it. Your wedding will be beautiful for sure.
@marlie: Thanks! Tribeca Rooftop is supposed to be amazing too! Congratulations, and have a great time!!
I came *thisclose* to purchasing Wallis. I think I'm going with another dress, but the fit on her dresses is phenomenal.

Wow, Wallis looks amazing. think I am falling in love!
Me too! I initially bought Elle, but ultimately realized I bought it because it was beautiful and my mom loved it, but it was totally not "me." So then I exchanged it for Magical and it's totally magical!!
Gorgeous dresses!
I went with Solange. She must be from an older season. I found her at a trunk show and haven't been able to find a picture of her online anywhere! She's classic and clean. I'm adding one of ML's beaded belts to spice it up a little :-) I don't have a picture of me in it yet, just this quick one of the sample that I snapped while the consultant went out of the room!
Carrie Underwood also wore custom-designed Monique Lhuillier
!
@rkbecker, I tried on Magical and fell in love.. but it was so out of my price range. I'll be wearing Snow White, from a few seasons ago.. removing a few pickups like the runway dress and adding a lavender sash :)

NYC brides. Where did you get yours? My friend got hers at the Atelier's Bridal Samples Sale and I think I am going to be hitting them up soon...
I got mine in NY at Mark Ingram and I am wearing the long sleeved Lea top and I think the Coco skirt.
I bought mine from Kleinfeld. If you want a newer dress, I recommend going during a trunk show to receive the 12.5% discount. If not, they have sample sales all the time. They're having a sample sale Tues 7/27.
almost bought magical..i would love to see a pic on a real person and not on a sadfaced model.
I bought a Monique Lhuillier "Elle" and added a cream colored Tony Federici sash. I really made it my own by adding the cream sash with a little bling.
I bought vamp .... not sure about it though and having dress regret. LOVE her dresses on all the musicians like Carrie Underwood, Pink, Natalie Imbruglia, (didn't see Britney's dress) but not sure if it's working on me.
@monamiestephanie: I am so in love with your gown, so beautiful. I am going with an all lace dress, Jessica is the style, and now I am kind of having thought about wearing dress similiar to yours.

@DVsMom: Did you just purchase the lea top? That is my favorite of all time! It is beautiful. Are you going to sell after your wedding?
@Simplicitydal - I just googled your dress, and it's BEAUTIFUL! 
Absolutely gorgeous dresses, ladies!! I never quite realized how much of a Monique fan I am until I started looking for my dress back in May...and I am so happy to join you guys & have my dream dress from her! So here's my journey...
I looked online for awhile and was 99% sure I wanted Aspen from ML's Fall 2011 collection. I tried her on first. LOVE!!! I did try on a few other dresses to make sure...(I apologize ahead of time for all the pics, but I'm just so excited! ha!)...

Here are the other dresses...Shelby from ML Spring 2011 (minus the tulle around the shoulders)

from Carolina Herrera Spring/Summer 2011 collection

Magical from ML Fall 2010

Lumiere from Fall 2011

And I was right the first time...Aspen it is!!! Just had my last fitting today...here are some pics from my 2nd fitting...She was mainly making sure all the bustled layers (top Chantilly lace has 6pt bustle, 2 underlayers have 3 pt bustle - oh she bustles so beautifully!) were even as well as the bustle in the veil, so I don't have any pics yet of the full-length train or veil...



Loving all the gowns here! So beautiful.
Lumiere was one of my top contenders for awhile and the fit was amazing.
Love Love Monique!!! I am wearing Amaranth from her Fall 2011 collection for my April wedding :)

love monique- i almost bought candy last week at marc ingram in nyc, but it is overbudget, so i am waiting a bit.
Me, too! Me, too!
I never thought I'd be a Monique bride, but once I tried her dresses on, there was no turning back. She knows exactly how girls want to look and feel on their wedding day -- beautiful, feminine, romantic, timeless. I originally thought I was going to wear Vera Wang "Ethel", because it's a hot white dress that makes me want to shake it and break it. But Monique Lhuillier's "Aspen" is a *bridal* dress that makes me want to get married. It silences a room. Here it is. It's perfect!
@mabel, you are one of the ONLY other Aspen brides I've found! We're a rare breed. It looks BEAUTIFUL on you! Good choice :) I'm wearing mine without the straps. I'm also dipping the back a touch and adding crinoline to give the skirt more structure.
