Most beautiful dress I have seen. Would you be interested in selling it so another bride could enjoy it?

I want those shoes! Looked on Nordstrom’s website, but they are not there. Brooke, what color are they? Are you willing to sell?

Hi everyone, I’m Brooke the bride. Let me start by saying thank you to style me pretty for speaking so highly of my wedding. What an honor, and all of the kind comments mean alot to me and my husband.
As for the shoes I got them from Nordstrom’s. They are Marciano? I don’t know if I spelled that right but I thought that Nordstrom’s had great funky shoes at a good price point. The flower girl’s entire outfits were from Gymboree ($49), the children’s clothing store. They have wonderful dresses that are equivalent to more EXPENSIVE ones that I’d seen. The bridemaid’s dresses are a deep brown and are by Jessica McClintock (very well made).
My dress ooo my dress. I wish I could wear that thing every day. I found it at the NY Bridal Loft in Charlotte. Cymbeline has very few stores in the us but she is worth finding! Her style is worth every dime.
Kristin Vining Photography is where to go! Kristin and I hit it off right away, which was so wonderful. We had FUN, true fun, with everything we did. The idea of NY was random but worth it, it’s just a cool memory. So I can’t thank Kristin enough for making my whole engagement and wedding day a love story,out of her WONDERFUL pictures. Her sister company, Weddings and the City, is a must at least for the weekend package. They saved my life and I didn’t worry about ONE thing on my wedding day. If you can do the whole package, do it b/c they had AWESOME ideas and are fun and kind. It would have been great to have them the whole time. Lizzy56 get them all to go with you honey.
And the comment about quality vs. quantity hit the nail on the head. We had about 110 guests. We were able to get the true ambiance that we wanted. People still tell me how much fun they had and that was one of the most important things.
Oh, and the Bible was given to me the day I was born by my grandmother. It comes with a cute poem and I carried it with my flowers.
Once again thank you for all of your very kind comments. They mean alot to my husband and me. Also again, Style Me Pretty, it is such an honor for this feature.

Lovely wedding ! Thought I recognized the dress style lol… Cymbeline is my big fav. For anyone who wonders, this is the dress Bruand by Cymbeline (an almost 2000€ dress in France, don’t know how much Cymbeline retailers in the USA sell it for ! You can find them on Cymbeline website)

I love the pictures, dress, style and colors. Is it possible for me to use a couple of the photos that show the location, there are two black and white images that are lovely, for use on The Mint Museum’s Web site?
