I went to a non-chain formal dress store (not a typical bridal place like David's or Alfred Angelo) to get my dress for our beach wedding. They did not have the dress in size or color on hand. The salesperson found the last one at another store that was on hold for someone else. She was persistent enough to call the store every morning, to find out if it or another one became available. With a blessing from above and a little persistence, the salesperson was able to get the dress for me! :)

This shop has relatively low cost dresses and most of them are gorgeous. I found the perfect dress that fit me perfectly! It was beautiful and I would recommend other's to visit this shoppe if they are looking for dresses under $1000. The only small qualm I had is we found the dress and put it on hold over night. My mother, bridesmaid and I all swear up and down that the price tag said $200. The next day when we returned to buy the dress, it was $400 the owner said that this was the original price of the dress and refused to budge. It is possible that the three of us were mistaken, but we considered that $400 was still a steal for such a beautiful dress so we bought it anyways and were very satisfied!
