I have been looking at wedding gowns since I was twelve years old...dreaming of what would look best on me on that perfect day! Well, when I was seventeen, I stumbled upon a Maggie Sottero website and fell in love with the gowns. After following Maggie for three and a half years, I finally got engaged to the love of my life Kiel Hawkins and two weeks later went in search of a Maggie gown.

I went to the AZ Bridal Show and was bombarded by a million gown shops with all their lovely gowns, but when I tried them on, none was really the right one. As my mom and I went through booth to booth, we finally found a Maggie retailer...Once in a Life Tyme Bridal. They didn't have any Maggie's on hand, but told us to come in the store that week and they'd honor the price of the Bridal Show for a Maggie gown.

That week my mom and I headed in and browsed through all their gowns...we didn't really find what we were looking for, so we decided to risk it and look through her catalogs. We saw two gowns that I really liked...one was a mermaid cut...and the other was VSM7047. I wasn't able to try the gowns on, but in order for them to order the gown, I had to purchase it. So without knowing what it would look like on me...HUGE RISK!!!...I went ahead and ordered the VSM7047 in Diamond White. It took nearly 5 long months to get the gown in...but when it finally arrived and my mom and I went in to try it on, it was absolutely STUNNING. We were so thankful for our risky choice. It worked out perfectly. On my wedding day I received so many compliments on the gown. Thank you Sottero and Midgley for creating such breathtakingly beautiful gowns...you helped make my special day truly stunning! Oh...and my husband LOVED me in that gown as I walked down the isle. He could barely believe his eyes at how beautiful I looked!!!
