For some reason I have seen this dress a few times recently although it is a Fall 2006 dress…and I LOVE it! It is an Alvina Valenta dress (style AV9658). If you wore this dress on your wedding day, I would LoVe to see it! Its no wonder I love it, it is a division of JLM Couture and as you all know, my dress was a Tara Keely
