“I started my gown search with my mom and my maid of honor. I went into a few stores just wanting to get an idea of styles that would look good on me. I immediately fell in love with a simple strapless gown. As my maid of honor zipped up the back of the dress, the song my fiance played as he proposed came on the radio at the store! I started tearing up and knew I had to buy that dress!” — Tamara, Franklin, MA *
