Got my gown today!

Here's a pic of the runner-up. I can't find a pic of my actual dress. But they're very similar.

It's by Stephen Yearick.

Re: Got my gown today!

I love it Jenn (boy I think we have similar taste in dresses!)- So you didn't you wind up getting the one I saw in Bridal Couture? Where did you wind up buying it?

Best of Luck! It is a beautiful dress.

Re: Got my gown today!

bridetobe,
Do you have a pic of yours!?!?! Post that baby!

Yep, I ordered the same one that Bridal Couture has. Same colors and all, but with a longer train (18' more). According to the VP at Bridal Reflections she spoke with someone at Stephen Yearick and they said BC isn't supposed to have that gown. I guess they're not authorized to carry the Yearick line!?!

The gown cost us more at BR , but I didn't bother to negotiate. The service was unbelievable! The girls were so cool and easy to work with.

I fell in love with the other dress I posted as well! It had all this beading detail on it!!! I was at the store for over 30 minutes just going back and forth between the two gowns.

I had never heard of Stephen Yearick before, but they told me he doesn't advertise, so it's extremely hard to find photos (he doesn't have a website either). Apparently he designs beauty pageant dresses. I found this blurb at a website:
Stephen Yearick is most widely known for his pageant gowns. Many of the Ms. America and Ms. USA contestants choose Stephen Yearick gowns for the evening gown competition. His elegance and sophistication translate beautifully into bridal. He is one of the few remaining designers that uses beadwork as the primary accent for each gown. A true design house, Stephen Yearick gowns are cut to measurements, not just by size.


I'm so psyched I got that weight off of my shoulders!

Re: Got my gown today!

Thank you jennbaby!!! To make it even more different, it will be in a light blush color.

The fact that it was different was one of the main reasons why I went for it.
