I just had the best bridal gown shopping experience at Lillette's in Baldwin. Stephanie was the girl who helped me and she was AWESOME! We ordered my gown, too!! It's a Maggie Sottero gown that my mom and I both fell in love with. We were shocked when we finally saw the price tag, too, b/c it cost half what we were planning to spend. We all know that doesn't happen often in wedding planning!
I only have one picture of it, but with the straps on. I'm having the straps removed and am wearing it strapless. That's how I tried it on - it's FAR more flattering on me. The saleslady said most people who order this gown wear it strapless.
Here it is:
And the back:
Now I have to be patient (and stick to my diet!) until it comes in... I can't wait to go back to pick out my veil, etc. Stephanie was great. This was a dress I never would have picked out on my own and would have probably said no when I saw it on the hanger. Stephanie just knew what would be flattering and look great ON me - and she was right. I loved everything she picked out for me. She also was absolutely NOT pushy and did NOT try to sell me up at all. (It wound up being the least expensive gown I tried on!) She wanted me to love the gown I ordered - and I do!
I'm sooooooo excited!!

Re: I ordered my gown! with pics!
Thanks so much everyone!
I have to say, I disliked shopping for a gown at all the other places I went to and was dreading going to another place today. I had so much fun trying on gowns and it was such a great experience. I LOVE this gown (and it was a hard choice, I really loved 3 of them!), and I'm so excited that we ordered it!! One more thing to cross of my 'to do' list, too!
