You look fabulous in that dress! I really liked your plaid idea, but this looks great.

What do you mean by detaching the dress? Does the bottom come of so it becomes cocktail length? If so, that would be awesome to wear on your first anniversary as the salesperson suggested.

Yes that's exactly it. I think it would have stopped at the first pleat. Not a terrible idea. But I asked them to make it one piece instead. We aren't the type of people to go out someplace that requires a cocktail dress. And it created a weird breeze up the skirt :oops:

But yeah I had never heard that suggestion before. I always thought it was detachable for ladies that wanted a different dress for the reception. Never heard the 1st anniversary idea. Pretty neat.

You're a sweetie! You were totally in the back of my head a the dress shop. Once my ballgowns was out the window and we had settled on that shape I was like " oh my gosh I don't want to have one custom made if it'll end up like that one gypsy posted :lol:

I am happy I was able to help out, even it was in a "what not to do" way!

I really the dress you picked and think you made a great choice.

gorgeous dress!! How about a wrap with a subtle pink plaid like the dress you liked? Maybe just at the reception. I loved the plaid idea too

I love LOVE the dress you found! The texture in the fabric will photograph beautifully.
