After over 2 hours of trying on various dresses, it came down to two: an Amsale and an Ines Di Santos. I was truly torn...

Until I came out of the dressing room in the Amsale dress one final time. (I'll never forget this moment.) There was an entire bridal party in the shop picking up their dresses, and when I walked out of the dressing room everyone literally stopped. Heads turned and the next thing I knew I was approached by all 5 of these girls. Each one eager to express to me that I had found my dress! The overwhelming rush of praise and compliments sealed my fate as an Amsale bride.

From that moment forward I knew I had found the perfect dress. Only on my wedding day would I learn just how perfect wearing my dress would make me feel.

I compare it to the excitement I experienced as a little girl each Easter. My mom would take me to pick out a special dress and for weeks I would wait anxiously in anticipation of wearing the dress. Once I put the dress on my eyes would light up, my heart would beat a little faster and I would carry myself with the utmost confidence. The same held true on my wedding day.

It was and still is a truly flawless gown! I have never experienced the level of elegance and grace that I did that day. Truly amazing. I can honestly say I felt like a queen and after all isn't that what we are all striving for?

Thanks for creating such a gorgeous and suitable (no restrictions) gown!! You had a huge impact on my and thousands of other brides' big day!
