"From the moment I put the dress on at Etc Bridal I fell in love with it. I had seen it in magazines and just loved the design being so unique. When I put the dress on at the Studio I knew it was the one and after seeing my mum, my sisters and my niece's reaction I knew it had to have it and when I thought about how much my husband would love it as well, that sealed the deal. The team at Etc Bridal made the whole process so easy and so relaxing- nothing was a hassle for them even when I told them my wedding was only 4 months away! They handle it like the amazing professionals that they are. Incredibly they sourced a sample dress for me in my size out of Australia and it arrived in plenty of time for the minimal alterations to be done. Our wedding day was even better than I had ever imagined. Having my dress hanging up in my bedroom and waking up to see it there was such an amazing feeling. The morning was so relaxing spending time with family and getting ready, it just all flowed so smoothly even if the weather wasn't playing ball. When it was time to put my dress on I was so relaxed, and so ready to walk up the aisle to my fiancé. As we were driving down the road about to arrive the rain stopped and the sun came out so we were able to have our ceremony on the lawn of my parents property under the Australian Gum tree planted by the lake. The rest of the day was filled with laughter, food, wine, epic speeches and so much love. I often put my dress on for fun on a weekend at home when I'm feeling nostalgic, and I will definitely be putting it back on and toasting with a glass of champagne on our one year anniversary in December."
