Alyne Hailey Gown
I have to warn you these pictures don't even come close to doing this dress justice. It is an AMAZING gown! The strapless chantilly lace gown is accented with handmade silk organza details handsewn throughout the gown. You'll also find pearls and beads scattered delicately throughout. The silk organza sash at the waist adds that extra feminine touch!

10 Things to Know Before Buying a Bridal Gown
Finding your perfect wedding dress is a once and a lifetime experience for every bride-to-be. No other time in life do you put so much emphasis on a single item of clothing, so we thought we would provide our brides with a few guidelines to help them prepare for that big shopping day!
#10 Know Your Budget
I can guarantee that you will be asked about your budget at every bridal shop you enter, so it will be most beneficial for you that you have a ballpark number to work with.
The worst thing a bride can do is try a dress on that costs three times more than her budget! Of course, you fall in love! Like anything in life, the more money you spend, the more bells and whistles you will get. Unfortunately after this moment, nothing you try on in your actual budget will live up to this hype, even though you may have amazing options.
So to spare yourself the unnecessary disappointment, be realistic with your budget and do not try on anything over your budget UNLESS you have a little wiggle room. By sticking to what works within your budget, you are guaranteed to be happy with your dress and your bridal shopping experience.
