I was actually the only bride in the store! Renee was my consultant. She was hands-off at first and let me pull gowns that I thought I might like - well, my mom pulled the gowns, because I'm pretty clueless ;) After trying on a few gowns, I found one that I really liked, except it was a little more of a fitted A-line than I had hoped for. Renee pulled another gown by the same designer, same style (even the same sash), but with a very full A-line (technically a ball gown, but not princess poufy). It. Was. Perfect.\r
