My husband and I were married on August 29, 2004 in a synagogue in Deal New Jersey. The setting was beautiful, as was the weather and of course the dress!

After going to a few other salons, my mother and I ended up in Saks in Manhattan. We saw the gown on the rack and I put it on right away. When I came out of the dressing room I was already in love with it and my mother was soon to follow. It was elegant, feminine, classic and I felt like a princess. I never had a clear picture of what I wanted my dress to look like, but as soon as I put on that dress the picture was very clear. It was strapless, had a French bustle in the back and band of beading around the waste. I had a cathedral veil with a detachable blusher. I carried a beautiful bouquet of pink roses mixed with white roses and stephanotis. I wore simple jewelry because the dress seemed to say it all!

We went to one other salon after Saks, and although I tried on some pretty dresses-I just kept looking for that Amsale at Saks. I had to walk down the aisle in that dress.

We brought my dad to Saks so he could see it and after he saw it and loved it, there was no hesitation. We bought it on the spot!

Our wedding was just perfect. Everyone was so happy for us and we were so happy that we were finally married! As I danced the whole night and circled the room, I was overwhelmed by the number of compliments on my dress and the attention my dress was getting. It was truly the hit of the party!

I have never felt as beautiful as I felt on my wedding day. I owe that in large part to my husband and the rest to Amsale!
