DIY Divine: 5 Ways to Personalize Your Wedding Dress

When I first started looking for wedding dresses, I started in a place with nearly 30,000,000 different options to choose from… Google, of course!  (For cereal, what did people do before internet and cell phones??  Haha!)  Anyhoot, this obviously led me down a countless amount of roads with an innumerable amount of options, and every dress – no matter if it was of my particular style or not – was absolutely b.e.a.uuuuutiful because, well, it was for a wedding day, duh :)

And with all that beauty rolled into all those options, I began to wonder how a bride could ever choose, and with soooo many dresses featuring different parts I enjoyed, I started to wonder how anyone ever did it in the first place…

Then, I came to the realization that every dress – like every home for sale – has potential to become whatever the bride envisions it to be.  Because every bride owns the right to make that dress her own
