"It was the very first dress I tried on! I love the truth that I felt like 'me' inside it, and achieving looking inside a few bridal magazines within the weeks beforehand, I thought this may happen to be impossible to attain! I did put on others, including inside a couple of different boutiques, but I returned to the very first one, which I still love."
