Bought in 1995 from a Wedding Gown Salon in Godstall Lane near the Cathedral in Chester UK.
The culture at that time was to ear your Bridal Dress for the ceremony and ths Wedding 'Breakfast' only. Then to disappear to refresh and change into evening wear ready for the first dance with your new hiusband. So the dress has only been worn for about 5 hours. The dress has been kept in tissues paper in a box ever since. The lace is a crisp as the day it was bought.
If you need any more information, photo' or measurements please contact me. I have no problem talking about this dress that has brought me so much joy and happiness in my marriage.
