Thank you to Sophias Style for providing me with a gift card towards the purchase of this dress, in exchange for this honest review. All opinions are 100% my own.
I just had the honor of being Maid of Honor in my cousin’s wedding. It was truly a fantastic day and I love how she included so many of my family in it. Our 3 year old son, who is also her Godchild, served as Ring Bearer. Our 8 year old son and 10 year old daughter served as Official Program Handers. My husband, our 4 year old, and infant were treated to reserved seating as honored guests. But with so much going on, during all the prep, I had forgotten to get a special outfit for our 10 year old to wear. I quickly turned to Sophias Style and they dove right in to help.
After spending over an hour browsing all the great choices over at Sophias Style, our daughter chose the Cinderella Couture Big Girls Orange Crystal Organza Cascade Ruffle Dress. The wedding colors were burnt orange, silver, and black so this dress really went well with the overall theme. We ordered on a Tuesday and chose the expedited shipping method and the dress arrived on Thursday, two whole days before the wedding!
Upon opening the package, it was clear that the dress was beautiful. Flowing layers, sparkle, and a large beautiful flower adorned the dress perfectly making it stand out as spectacular. Our daughter typically wears size 10 clothing so we chose that size for the dress as well. Once she put it on, though, it was clear that we were going to have to get the straps shortened as they were over an inch too long, leaving the dress hanging too low. Thankfully a local seamstress was able to squeeze us in and make that alteration for us on Friday. (Our daughter is slightly petite so that may have attributed to the issue so this may fit another child perfectly without alterations being necessary.)
The back of the Cinderella Couture Orange Crystal Organza Cascade Ruffle Dress has a zippered closure and tied bow and it also came with a a shawl. Made from the same organza material as parts of the dress, the shawl matched well but our daughter only wore for a short time before setting it aside. While it was too hard for her to keep on her arms, she has enjoyed playing with it now that the wedding is over.
Overall, we are quite happy with this dress and overall experience. The impressive selection of items for boys and girls available over at Sophias Style assures that there will definitely be something available for everyone!

I’m blessed beyond measure and can’t wait to see what God has in store.
