Embroidered, White Melissa Sweet Ball Gown

The team at David’s Bridal helped Jessica find a ball gown that was not what she expected, but looked stunning on her wedding day. Designed by Melissa Sweet, the dress was accented with an embroidered bodice and a sweet lace trim along the full skirt. “My favorite part was the pockets,” Jessica says. “I actually had my late father's wedding band tied into the right pocket. It was hidden, just for me, so that I could have him with me on my special day.”
