Hi Everyone, The total budget for our wedding is 17k. 10k of it is paying for the venue which includes the ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner and wedding cake. How much should I spend on the dress? I have seen people spend $99 at davids bridal...

I have a taffeta/polyester bridesmaid dress with several obvious creases in it. Can I remove them by steaming it? I am afraid to iron it.
