I have been trying to find photos of real brides in this dress and have not found a single one. This dress was the first one I fell in love with and is kind of a third runner up if I decide I don’t want to spend $2000 on my dream dress (Maggie Sottero Juliette) or get the 2nd runner up (VW351011 Organza Fit n Flare).
It would be great to see real brides in this dress since the nearest Davids Bridal is 6 hours away.

@NursebrideNS: Please can you show me a picture of you in it?? It’s GORGEOUS! I have not seen a ‘real bride’ in the dress and I’ve been looking since September!
Also, are you the one who posted on Davids Bridal from Truro, NS? One last question, is it heavy?

Jenny, it’s a size 6 – much smaller than I take right now, but it was the LAST size!! currently working on fitting into it. According to the weight of it when it was shipped, it is 10 lbs. it seems really heavy when holding it, but I tried it on tonight, (just barely) and it didn’t weigh a lot when on. It’s nicer looking in person than in the picture! I’m a bit stressed about trying to fit into it buying worse comes to worse, I’ll buy another one 🙁

I’m DYING to see a real bride in it. The stock photo doesn’t seem to do it justice.
This dress was my first love, but none of the DB’s around here has it in stock =[.

And yes I bought it from davids bridal. I phoned various stores and size 6 was THE last size they could order. I had it shipped to my university roommate in Washington state. Then she shipped it to me.

Jenny, I’d say so. In sept they had every size. Then in October I noticed online it was on clearance so immediately called them and at that point all they had where size 6. I’ve gone online since and I’m pretty sure they are sold out. They just haven’t removed it from the website. I’d phone though to make sure!! I’m in about a 14 now and have lost 25 pounds. Slowly but surley making my way into it. As soon as I can get into it, I’ll take pics. It’s even more beautiful in person. The tulle petals are so soft and the train is a faiR length.

I just purchased this dress two days ago through Davids Bridal. I called the one nearest to me, she checked around and the only one she could order closest to my size was a 6. But, I am not expected to receive it for 4 months.
