The Gown

Crystal's attire proved a bit more of a challenge. She'd initially wanted to have a gown custom-made -- unfortunately, her dressmaker's vision was quite different from her own. She finally decided to give up on the idea with just six weeks left before the wedding. Her soon-to-be sister-in-law took a weeping Crystal into a David's Bridal, and they left smiling with an Oleg Cassini gown. I actually picked it up two days before leaving for Florida, Crystal remembers of the ecru A-line gown with a dropped waist and embellished with crystals and gold embroidery.
