Activity for The Yankee and the Southern Belle

I do not want to spend more than $500 on my wedding dress (definitely buying off the rack) and I wanted to see pictures of all of your beautiful bargain dresses so I don't feel so stressed about not being able to find a winner at a good price!

Has anyone tried on or even bought their dress from David's Bridal? I have my first appointment to try on dresses on the 24th and I'm starting to get anxious about it. I'm a size XL/XXL in tops (big boobs) and a 15/16 in jeans. What size would that...
