here's mine! i have a blingy black sash that goes with it, but forgot it when i brought the dress to the bridal salon (wanted to get pictures of it in good lighting with my hair trial!)

I won my ceremony dress (one of a kind...eek!), but retail would be about $6,000...

I got my reception dress from a store that sells samples (Vows in Boston...aka bridepower.com). It's an Amsale that retails for about $4,000, but I got it for $1,300.

@ jeannine, love your ceremony dress! Where'd you win it from/who's the maker?
@Shlieka: It's by Jorge Manual, a Miami based designer.
Here's the thread about how I won it:

Here's the thread I wrote after I went to Charleston to get it:

Thanks! I've never heard of him before but I took a look at his website and he has a lot of beautiful designs!! You look beautiful in the dress, the color is just right for you! Congratulations =)
@Jeannine @ Small Chic: Gotta say that first dress is hellagorgeous!
So different and fun! love love. Off to see more of his designs, I only vaguely remember from when you first posted about it--the name rings a bell.
My reception dress is actually my mom's dress from 1973. It has a sweetheart neckline with buttons up the back. We are getting the sleeves shortened to 3/4 and made a little less poofy and then it's being shortened to above my knees. My plan is to likely wear tights and of course my cowboy boots (wearing those for ceremony too).
