Non traditional wedding dress

Don't go traditional, go to a non-traditional store! If bridal shops don't have this style of dress, change where you shop, don't give up on what you want. Look at bridemaid dresses, pageant dresses, evening gowns, prom dresses.

View Quoted Comment Thanks you much. My goal is to stay true to myself. I am taking your advice 😊

I didn’t want traditional either! My dress is super unique and I’m OBSESSED with it lol

View Quoted Comment You have a black dress?

No, but the dress has hand painted flowers on it with a large train. 😊

View Quoted Comment Sounds amazing!!

I hope you find what you’re looking for!! Have you considered trying bridesmaid dresses? Unsure if you’d find the style you’re looking for, but maybe worth a look and maybe you’ll find that one store who has what you want. My dress is a bridesmaids dress. The actual dress is black that I’ve been trying on but I’m getting it in ivory.

View Quoted Comment Yes I've been looking in that area.

All for the non-tradish look! I'm searching for something potentially in the chartreuse/mustard velvet gown category OR anything vintage. Does anyone know of any shops in the Milwaukee area that have a bridal vintage section?
