Michelle came into Strut a couple of times. We put different styles on her, but we kept coming back to the idea of a tea length wedding dress. So then we'd hold up her favorites to see what they'd look like shortened. But none quite matched the Justin Alexander 8465 tea length wedding gown, which we didn't yet have in our Phoenix bridal store.
But Michelle just kept coming back to that photo of the gown. And one day she came in and said, "What do you think about me just ordering it? Will I love it?" And I said yes. It had everything she was looking for. So she paid her deposit and I promised that as soon as our stock piece came in, she'd be the first to try it on. Thank goodness she loved it as much as I thought she would.
On a perfect day last December, Michelle married Steve at the Royal Palms hotel. We thought she looked stunning and love the burgundy shoes peaking out beneath her dress.
Here's one more photo of a real bride in 8465. I think she looks like something out of a fairy tale:
Michelle was quite a vision! In real life she's a size 10 or 12ish. If you're a curvier bride, check out Justin Alexander 8465 as a plus size wedding dress and see the tea length wedding dress details in this post.
Remember, this wedding gown comes in all natural (ivory), which makes the flower lace and cumerbund and skirt all ivory. It also comes in a floor length version (cost is slightly more). Remember, Just Alexander is a little slow to ship their bridal gowns, so you need AT LEAST four months to order from them (more time is better–they give us heart attacks).
Michelle and Steve, best wishes to you both. Thanks so much for sharing photos of your wedding!
Woah! I’m really digging the template/theme of this site. It’s simple, yet effective. A lot of times it’s challenging to get that “perfect balance” between usability and visual appeal. I must say you’ve done a fantastic job with this. In addition, the blog loads super quick for me on Opera. Superb Blog!
