Davids Bridal dresses, cheap?

Ally, on January 3, 2019 at 6:17 PM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 26

Sometimes i go back and forth. I bought mine from DB and I looked in 3 other places. Prices were not too far apart. I still spent about 960 on my dress- it's a ballgown. I will attach photo if I can find it on my computer. Is it true that DB dresses are cheaply made, etc? I know plenty chicks buy them. I've seen so many nice ones since buying but I like what I got! Thoughts?

    While they might not be constructed to the same level as other dresses, they are decent dresses that you can be confident will look great through your wedding day. It might not be heirloom quality, but how many women do you know choose to wear their mother or grandmother's dress? I can think of one off the top of my head, and she actually reconstructed the entire thing.

    Your dress is gorgeous! I got mine at David's Bridal as well. I don't have any worries about it.

    It’s ivory over champagne. I had the cap sleeves added.

    Get out of here haha. That's the one I bought originally. I had to return it bc it was too itchy on my waste and chest. I'm very sensitive

    I like the capped sleeves idea. I was even thinking a beaded cross over backing to mine

    I can definitely see it being itchy but it doesn’t bother me. I’m so tiny and short I don’t think my future daughter will even be able to wear it unless she’s the same size as me.

    I got mine at David’s but it is outside of their specific company that it is made. From what o saw when trying dresses on they all see good quality. I haven’t heard of any bad reviews. Yours was the dress I was Going to buy originally! I decided against strapless for sleeves.

    I cant do sleeves. I have weird shoulders. Everything slides down. I even wear strapless bras lol. I do want the draping beads on both sides though!!

    I'm getting married smack in the middle of the summer and outside. I dont eant to be itchy and hot but I loved the dress for the summer bc of the flowers. I'm upset bc my mother and I agreed in it together. It kind of broke my heart to return it

    This is mine. I fell in love with it but didn’t buy it when I first tried it on because it was way to expensive. Then they did 100$ off and I justified It 😂

    @ally, that is the exact same dress I have been thinking about too. My FH loves that dress but I am worried that it looks and feels cheap compared to another dress I love (martin thornburg's Nellie dress) especially since it is only a few hundred dollars cheaper. I worry that the im not saving enough at DB when the dress seems too be lower quality. Still torn...
