Rundown of my wedding day attire

This is my Wtoo/Watters ivory lace ballgown. It is gorgeousssss! I wish there was a time or event where it is socially acceptable to wear your wedding gown again haha. This wasn't my first wedding gown though. Before I stumbled upon this one, I had ordered a dress from Simply Bridal. It was not what I expected and I was very unhappy with it. You can read about it here. So I returned that dress and searched for the dress. I found it at Sunday's Bridal. It is everything I wanted in a wedding dress: lace, ivory, sweetheart neckline and ballgown style. I feel it's a classic style so years from now maybe my daughter might want to wear it.

To go with the dress, I also wore a lace key-hole back bolero. It matched the dress perfectly! Even better is that I got it for free from Tulip Bridal's contest! I saved $80! I purchased my veil from ebay from another bride for $75. It is a David's Bridal 2-tier scalloped edge fingertip veil. The beading on this is really pretty. And last, my shoes are Olivia by Calvin Klein. I got these on ebay for $45.

So...
wedding dress - $550
bolero - free
veil - $75
shoes - $45
Total : $670
