I think my dress was just called The Pond, so really similar to the Lily Pond minus the flowers. I also got a Monique Lhuillier beaded belt to wear with it. I'm super excited. I bought mine at a boutique so I probably got ripped off a little. The dress was about 4200 though and the belt was 800. The material is amazing and I agree with Danielle. Definitely feels like butter! I ordered a Lela Rose dress in August (should be ready in March). I think my dress was just called The Pond, so really similar to the Lily Pond minus the flowers.

There is nothing wrong with it! It is called the Lily Pond, look it up, it is so beautiful with handmade flowers sewn up the train. I don't often show people pictures of it online because yes, the models really do not flatter the dress, if that makes sense. They are too thin and the dresses just hang, not like on a "real" body. I have always described the feeling as butter as well. I LOVE my dress! Look for a sample, its worth it! I just bought a Lela Rose sample gown for 3200….less than half the 7,000 it retails for.

The fabrics are amazing. I tried on dozens and dozens of dresses and none of them felt the same as the Lela Rose Gowns. Her silk fabrics feel like butter on your skin and none of them feel or look heavy or overworked like some wedding gowns tend to be these days. These pictures absolutely do not do the dresses justice. That may be due to the studio backdrop and/or the uninspiring models, which some of the dresses do not seem to fit properly. It's hard to look at gowns on other people and in photos, as they look so different on oneself and in person. Worth every penny!

I haven't seen these gowns in person, but from the pictures they don't even seem good quality. I would think for a higher end label the photography would at least be flattering. Honestly they don't even grab my attention. For a dress that starts at 4000 I am not impressed. Really????

My cousin actually just wore one of her dresses to her wedding just a few weeks ago and accessorized with amazing pearl drop earrings and a simple pearl bracelet--both of which my sister and I were able to buy for her at Premium Pearl. The site is fabulous for any and all pearl jewelry and definitely the go to store for wedding day earrings and such! I love Lela Rose’s designs, they are flawless!

I hadn't found anything yet that hit that trigger but I LOVE all of her dresses. I would take almost any of them. The fabrics are beautiful, and the silhouettes and so elegant. Now I just need to find something as beautiful that's in my budget! I discovered these after Amy’s wedding profile.. I hadn’t found anything yet that hit that trigger but I LOVE all of her dresses.

Some people can afford those dresses, some can't...this blog doesn't cater to any one budget does it? It's an inspiration blog and it's wonderful!

We're thinking about renewing our vows in a year or two. I really would love to wear one of these. I eloped the first time and wore a blue silk suit. Those are more my style! ;) I love the dresses.
