The Tie the Knot Hunt (which runs until March 24th) is all about weddings… but I came across a free prize (in all the popular mesh body sizes plus a quality alpha) that would make not only a lovely wedding dress, but also would be perfect for roleplay. So I found myself adventuring to find the perfect setting and backdrop to show it off.
I ended up in a field of lavender wildflowers, that perfectly set off the lavender ties in the corset part of this dress. For 0L, I imagine you’ll want to pick up this beautiful gown from K&A Design too. Just stop by K&A Design and search for the wedding ring box and this lovely dress is yours free.
Sizes in the box:
Maitreya – Lara
eBody
Fitmesh
Slink – Hourglass & Physique
Belleza – Freya, Isis, & Venus

Astrid (Portia Swords) is wearing…
Body – Maitreya – Lara
Head – Catwa Head – Tumble

Hair – [e] elikatira – Lalora
Dress – K&A Design – Flauna Gown (Free/0L for the Tie the Knot Hunt)
Sure, you could have a June wedding – but winter is coming. And for me there is something magical about the idea of a white wedding. And even if you aren’t planning a winter wedding… these gifts are too fabulous to pass up!
Right now if you stop by Tiffany Designs you can use your group tag to pick up this shimmering Jocey Bridal Gown in white for only 1L (the group is 50L to join). It includes Maitreya, TMP and Slink appliers as well as system layers for the body portion of the gown and though I’m usually a mesh-fan girl… this dress is perfect in flexi. Mesh could NOT have given this dress the ‘flow’ it needed with the glittering affect that the designer added into the flexi pieces, which are simply breathtakingly beautiful for your special day (or any formal dance really).
To add a little more sparkle to my Tiffany Design Jocey Bridal head piece, I hopped over to the Swank event, where I discovered that Zuri Rayna was giving away this lovely head piece in steel blue called Madeline. It is completely FREE, no group required. Just stop by the booth at Swank and pick it up!
And if that isn’t enough to convince you that all your second life dreams have come true, just check out this skin that Astrid is wearing? For me it was love at first sight! Who needs a groom? I love the soft freckles, the lovely shade of the lips, and the definition to the collarbones. And this Women’s Stuff Hunt gift from the Deluxe Body Factory was not only completely FREEbut also contained Slink and Omega body appliers plus additional Omega lipstick appliers!
Of course… what wedding would be complete without a honeymoon? And Tiffany Designs didn’t let me down. Be sure to stop by the front desk on your way out and pick up this sexy Sara Lingerie in green for FREE(no group required for this one). This lovely little number came with system layers as well as Maitreya and TMP appliers to complete your look.
I also topped off my evening look with this sultry long loop necklace I found on Marketplace by Miam Miam. It is only 10L and has 15 color change options (I am showing the green because it matched the lingerie). It’s a piece of jewelry I’m sure I will find myself wearing again and again with that kind of versatility!

Hello hello, Fab Free Folks! I hope this brand new August is treating you well. With the start of August we have the start of a bunch of new Hunts including the 1L ‘Marry Me Hunt’ from Nefeli Events.
I picked this Hunt because I am such a hopeless romantic. My real life wedding anniversary is in August so dressing up as a bride again in second life was just too much fun. I started with the dress, of course. This is the Chiffon Sparkle Wedding Gown from Kitty Shape Wears. You get both the dress and the shimmery veil in the Hunt prize. I know this is a wedding dress but the clean elegant lines would make this a lovely evening gown for any occasion.
I added some glamor and glitz with the “Beloved” jewelry set from Footpaw Industries. Your one Linden will score you the necklace, the earrings, two bracelets, the tiara, and two hair sticks. And again, this is lovely wedding wear but you could easily wear the set for any dress up occasion.
Now I just needed the perfect back drop for my new finery. Darkmatter stepped up and granted my wish with the gorgeous Lover’s Bench. The sweet little retreat comes loaded with three couples poses just right for photos.
The Marry Me Hunt runs until August 31st so hurry down the aisle!

Hopefully this post doesn’t scare off my boyfriend. haha! But I wanted to show you all this beautiful wedding gown from The White Armory that is their free group gift of the week.
The gown is called Blushing Bride and it comes with the veil.
I love the precious flower details at the top of the skirt on the back.
I just had to shoot this gorgeous gown at a beautiful church so I traveled to this quaint Medieval Chapel on the Cloud Nine sim. It is really worth a visit!
The train of the gown is divine!
This stunning jewelry set is called Royal Wedding (ring and necklace) and is my something blue. 😉
Now before you go all “Ooo Love Trill is getting married”, I am so not! Nothing to get alarmed about folks – put your rice away! But… if I were, this simple yet stunning gift would be a fabulous gown to do it in! Cilian’gel is giving this Got Katie? mesh wedding gown and veil away to their group members this month! You may have a wedding come up, or you may just want to pick it up and save it… just in case 🙂 The group is 50L to join and its a great group to join and stay in because Cilia is always generous with her gifting.
*Remember this is a mesh gown – you’ll need a mesh compatible viewer to see it in all it’s glory.
