Ali Landry shows off her personal sense of style on the cover of 'Modern Bride.'

It's hard to believe when you see the gorgeous photo of ALI LANDRY on the cover of Modern Bride, on newsstands December 18, that only eight weeks before, the former Miss U.S.A. gave birth to her daughter, ESTELA INES, but it's true.

"I worked out throughout the whole pregnancy because it made me feel really, really good, and I ate well," she reveals. "I didn't have crazy cravings or anything like that. Now, I have been nursing her, and I just started a new workout routine. Hopefully, that will work. We will see in a few of weeks. But I literally just started a week ago."

Ali has been married for two years to actor-producer ALEJANDRO GOMEZ MONTEVERDE, but the 'Bella' star remembers her own wedding as if it were yesterday.

"When a girl is planning a wedding, she really thinks about details, details, details. That is what a wedding is. It took a long time to create it, so I remember every aspect of it."

One of those details is her wedding gown. The former Doritos® spokesmodel was married in a MONIQUE LHULLIER bridal dress, with a fitted bodice, sweetheart neckline, ruching at the top and a corresponding deconstructed ruffle on the skirt. She picked the dress because she and Alejandro were married in San Miguel de Allende, a Spanish colonial town, and she felt that the dress matched the feel of the locale.

"[My wedding' was spectacular," she recalls. "Actually, I wish I could recreate it and do it all over again. To have friends and family there, we worked so hard, and it really represented who we were as a couple. Our sense of style and our personality really came out in our wedding, I think."
