The inner lining isn't itchy at all and is super breathable for a garden wedding. I thought the white would make me look pale, but it's actually really flattering. I did have to iron it a fair bit because it arrived pretty wrinkled.

Beautiful lace and the fabric drapes really well. It fits a bit large around the upper body, so I had to get it altered slightly.

The sweetheart bodice offers great support even without a bra. I was worried the train would be too heavy for dancing, but I moved around without any issues all night. The only downside is that under warm lighting, the colour looks slightly darker than the photos on the site.

Wore this for 8 hours straight and it held up beautifully. The skirt has amazing volume and doesn't feel cheap at all. By the end of the reception the lace near the armpit started to rub my skin just a tiny bit, but nothing unbearable. The packaging was a bit squished when it arrived but the dress itself was completely fine.

I was really nervous about ordering my wedding dress online, but the matte satin feels incredibly heavy and luxurious. The lace appliques are gorgeous in person. It did arrive with some creases from the box, so you definitely need a professional steam before the big day, but overall an amazing value for the price.
