Bride Gets Wedding Dress of Her Dreams After Losing Her Original

Wedding dress shopping is stressful enough as it is -- right, ladies? But imagine finding the wedding dress of your dreams and then LOSING IT.

That’s exactly what happened to bride-to-be LeAnna. So when we heard her story, we had to help.

With financial help from her family, LeAnna thought she had found the perfect wedding dress -- until the popular bridal chain she purchased it from went out of business 7 months before her wedding day. Yikes!

“When [my mom] told me that, my heart sank,” LeAnna says. “I could not believe it.”

“The heartbreak was a lot more than just losing that dress,” she continues. “My family had chipped in the money for it.”

Well, Rach to the rescue!

She recruited her good friend and lifestyle expert Gretta Monahan to help LeAnna find her new dream dress. She even surprised the bride-to-be with a special guest to help her decide between three stunning dresses from NYC bridal boutique Bridal Reflections -- her mom, Rhonda!

The first dress closely resembles her original dress, with an A-line cut (the most universally flattering, according to Gretta!), an open back and cap sleeves. The second option is arguably the sexiest of the three, featuring a deep plunge -- and the third is strapless (which LeAnna originally wanted no part of!).

Rach, Gretta and Rhonda, were all rooting for different dresses -- so it’s safe to say it wasn’t an easy decision for LeAnna!

Ultimately, though, one dress spoke to her more than the others.

"I feel like a bride," LeAnna says. "I feel beautiful."

And the winning dress is ...
