The perfect dress for an intimate wedding

We had a small and intimite wedding with only 30 guests so when I was looking for my dress, I felt that all those big gowns very over dressed for the event and have been having a very hard time deciding what to wear.

I was so excited when BHLDN opened a bit over a year ago. And when saw this dress, I knew this is IT! It's simple yet different. At first when I receive the dress, I thought it was a bit more yellow that cream but it was super pretty under the natural sunlight and I just LOVE it!

The one thing I have to complain about though will have to be the fit. I am 5'10 so the length was perfect on me. I have my seanstress added more tulles to make it puffier as I think it's not as puffy as the picture shown. The bust part of the dress fit a bit strange (the tip of the bust sort of stick out a bit too much), the tube was a bit tight and the waist was a bit bigger than the measurement. In the end, with the magic hand of my seamstress and $500 extra, it was all good. Some might think that paying $500 on top for alteration is ridiculous but I think anyother dress would just cost as much in alteration anyway and plus I am still paying under $1000 so I am very very happy.

CHEAP zipper

THis is the 4th dress I have sent back to BHLDN. So far I'm not impressed with there dresses. The sizing is always off. Worst of all the zipper in this dress is totally CHEAP. I couldn't zip it up when it was off or on. For $600. they should put in a decent zipper. I do like the styling of this dress and I so sad it hasn't worked out! Even though I now have the right size.

very pretty, as expected.

just received my dress. i ordered a size 4 according to my measurements and it's perfect. I think the length is very good. It is supposed to be tea length, not just below the knee. Before altering the length i would recommend to think twice and check out audrey hepburn pictures. tea length should be between mid calf and the ankle. The fabric is a little more shiny than i thought. The zip is poor quality, i struggled to zip it up even when the dress was on the hanger. Overall i'm very happy with my choice and feel very lucky that it fit!

Love it!

I absolutely love this dress. This is one of the first ones I saw when I began browsing, and even though I explored other options, I kept going back to this one. The detailing is incredible in person and it is made with a high quality fabric. It is even more exquisite in person and the picture does not do the dress nearly enough justice. The reviews said that it runs small in the top. I am pretty small on top already (34B), so I ordered my normal dress size of 4, but it was slightly too large, so I had to have it taken in a bit. I also had to have the hem taken up because it was too long, but post alterations, the dress is perfect and incredibly flattering! I can't wait to wear it!
