Four women wore the exact same wedding dress for the most important reason

This is how to make your wedding day truly special.

Over the last 85 years, four women over three generations of one family have worn the same silk dress for their weddings.

We're all jealous - Not only do they not have to buy an insanely expensive gown, but they get to wear a beautiful family heirloom.

It's just as gorgeous today as it was 85 years ago, when Maria Teresa Moreno made it before her Los Angeles wedding in 1932.

Then Moreno's granddaughter, Marta Prietto O'Hara, wore the dress in 1983.

Followed by Marta's younger sister, Elena Salinas, in 1997.

And Pilar O'Hara Kassouf, Marta's daughter, wore it in September 2017.

Pilar told the Huffington Post that wearing the dress was special.

After I got engaged, I went over to my grandma Anita’s house to try it on.

Once I did, and saw myself in the mirror, I knew.

It fit like a glove and needed no alterations whatsoever.

There was no way I was walking into any bridal store to look at a dress that meant nothing to me when our family dress meant everything to me. It was meant to be.

Her mother, Marta, agreed, sayingthat wearing the dress was an experience "beyond words":

It was such a connection to my grandmother, with whom I was very close.

She was also my godmother and she lived around the corner from me so I saw her all the time.

And she lived to be 98. So my kids grew up knowing their great-grandmother.

She added:

My grandmother would just be so thrilled to know that one of her great-grandchildren wanted to wear her dress.

I think she would be very touched.

It fills my heart. It makes me just so happy.
