I loved how easy it was to move around in my GLL gown! I tried on a lot of dresses before I went to Grace Loves Lace and didn’t feel comfortable even walking around in them, let alone dancing. GLL gown’s almost feel like you’re naked. The lace is so comfortable, and they accentuate where they are supposed to!
I loved feeling free and flowy. I didn’t want to feel constricted or heavy in a wedding gown and my dress made me feel so comfortable. The delicate detail in the lace of the gown was beautiful and I love that it was made to fit my body and I didn’t have to stress about gaining or losing weight before my wedding and needing last minute alterations.
GLL was the one and only place I visited when wedding dress shopping. I’ve always admired the ethereal beauty of the gowns and just knew I would find ‘The One’ with ease at GLL!

FAQS
IS MANOLO A BALLGOWN OR AN A-LINE WEDDING DRESS?
Manolo is an A-line wedding dress with all the impact of a traditional ballgown. Her fitted satin bodice flows into a full, voluminous skirt, where a floral jacquard overlay comes alive with rich texture and sculptural blooms. She has the statement proportions of a ballgown, but with a softer shape that gives the classic princess silhouette a more modern feel.
ARE THE OFF-THE-SHOULDER STRAPS ON MANOLO SUPPORTIVE?
Manolo’s off-the-shoulder straps are primarily decorative; the main support comes from the structured satin bodice. Internal boning, built-in cups, and a waist stay provide shape, so the straps can fall softly off the shoulders without carrying the weight of the gown.
IS MANOLO AVAILABLE AS A READY TO WEAR WEDDING DRESS?
Yes, Manolo is available in both Made-to-Order and Ready-to-Wear. If you’re working on a shorter wedding timeline, our Ready to Wear gowns come in standard sizes and typically dispatch within 3–5 business days when in stock.
WHAT VEIL SHOULD I WEAR WITH THE MANOLO WEDDING DRESS?
A plain tulle veil pairs beautifully with Manolo’s full floral jacquard skirt, adding a bridal finishing touch without introducing any competing patterns. The Santos Veil offers a clean cathedral-length silhouette, or try the Lunaria Drop Veil for a smooth, ungathered drape and a soft blusher for the ceremony.
