Front of the dress a tip to save money on your wedding dress 1

Hi!

I wanted to give a tip on how to possibly save money on a wedding dress. I went to a dress shop that sells non-traditional wedding dresses and got a white bridesmaid's dress for about $300. I did not know this was a bridesmaid's dress until I looked up the dress number online. The pictures do not do it justice. Just thought I'd throw that out there. If you're in the Richmond, VA area, the place is called Lex's of Carytown.

That dress is so pretty. I totally agree with your tip. I went with an evening gown as my wedding dress because a friend told me to try stores that sell formal dresses rather than specifically looking up something bridal/`wedding

I found a dress at Macys in their "fancy dress" section that looked alarmingly similar to my wedding dress only a fraction of the cost xD

Such a gorgeous dress! I would have never guessed it was labeled as a BM dress!

I’m glad bc when I see other dresses I wonder whether this one is bridal enough.

Yes. I’m going to get my veil with the person who does my alterations. She can make a veil with shimmer that has beading on the bottom edge.

Oh WOW, that really does sound beautiful! Will the beading be sparkly also?
