Beautiful
My ceremony was an outdoor ceremony on a farm, so i was looking for a dress that felt organic and easy -- no shiny materials for me. When i got to the store, my mom had me try this one on even though it didn't look that flattering on the mannequin - it was the 4th dress i tried on and all looked great, so i wasn't too sure i would actually have the "moment" -- as soon as i saw myself in the mirror I couldn't stop crying. This dress felt amazing and just like "me".
At my first fitting after getting it in, i started having reservations because of the empire waist - i was worried i would look pregnant! This was only a couple weeks before the wedding and i was starting to stress out, no way i was going to order another dress -- i would have to make it work. Luckily, the sash is long enough that i was able to wrap it around the bodice a couple times and still have a beautiful bow - creating a perfect waistline.
Now, i can't stop staring at pictures of myself in this dress, it's everything i wanted. The fabric is beautiful and unique; the organic flow of the dress is easy to wear -- overall, so chic and classic with a little bit of modern, sexy flair.

BEST dress EVER
I tried on 100s of dresses and this is my absolute favorite. I wore this dress on my wedding day and received so many complements that I felt and looked like a princess! My husband loved the dress and it photographs extremely well!! I wrapped the bow around my waist and added a custom belt that really made the dress sparkle! Really every girl wants to wear Vera on her wedding day!

Made for me!
I absolutely love my dress! It's like Vera made it just for me. I did not want over the top but I wanted an amazing dress all the same without looking plain. The material is matte and beautiful. The overlapping petal back is very classy and the bow at the front adds couture. All of this in such a simple dress. Absolutely ecstatic with my very own Vera, and such a bargain!
