The Gown

Andrea says she owes much of the success of her gown search to the folks at Macy's in New York's Herald Square. I walked in right off the street without an appointment, and they were so kind to me, she recalls. Though she hadn't tried on any wedding dresses before, she lucked out almost right away. The second gown she tried on, a white silk dress with a beaded hem and waistline by Demetrios, was perfect. She kept warm in the December cold with a borrowed white mink stole. It made me feel like a million bucks, Andrea says.
