My Dress Came!

Rachel, on November 4, 2018 at 10:28 PM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 22
My dress came in 3 months earlier than expected and I got to pick it up yesterday! I'm so excited.

The sample I tried on was ivory over moscato and had very warm undertones. I ordered the dress in ivory with silver threading and it was really hard to envision what my dress would end up looking like in the different color.

I obsessively checked the Stella York hashtag on Instagram weekly to see if I could find a bride in the same dress, but because it was a newer style, there were very few and they were all wearing the moscato version.

I was getting nervous about my decision and whether I would like the dress as much in just ivory. I'm really glad to say that when I finally saw it yesterday, I loved it! And I'm finally feeling confident in my choice.

    Your dress is gorgeous!!! I understand the excitement, my dress was due to be in in February and they told me Friday my dress was already shipped and will be in tomorrow or the next day!!! I went with Ivory for mine as well, I was worried it would not look white enough but I didn't want an extremely bright white dress as well, and I still have to find a matching veil (I found my dress online and tried it on in on a walk in without an appointment so didn't really get the "full experience" of trying on accessories....

    Beautiful detailing! I know my D went through the same thing when she ordered her gown in all ivory after trying on the sample of ivory over sandstone. Such a relief when you see how beautiful it is in person. Congrats!

    Thank you so much! I actually ordered extra buttons to have them sewn down to the end of the train when I have alterations done. Smiley smile I'm going to have my hair down and curled. For my makeup, I'll be doing a shimmery champagne eye and berry lips. My wedding is in winter and a Christmas theme, so I wanted to have my makeup go along with that.

    Thank you! Yes, same here! I brought a ton of people with me to my appointment, but now that my actual dress is in, I haven't let anyone see me in it except for the dress consultant.
