Wedding Dress Belts/Sash

I bought a plain one off Etsy, ill let you know how it is when i get it. cost me 20.00

@MrsSantamaria2015 -- please do! That's the kind of price I like!! haha

My dress has a super sparkly one sewn on that they are actually going to remove in alterations... I felt like it just cut me off!

This is the link to the one that i got, its really nice for the price. And considering i will probably be making up my mind on whether to wear it or not the day of its a good thing i didnt spend a bunch.

I did buy one because my dress is pretty plain. It was pretty outrageous at about $70 at DB, but I think my dress needed it. Sorry for the weird angle pic.

I got this one from Lucy Bridal Boutique on Etsy for $25. I haven't tried it on with my dress yet (belt is at my house, dress at mom's house), but I really like it.

I plan to (I don't have too much hesitation about it) order one on etsy. I just love the way it looks with my dress. It defines my waste nicely. If I order mine soon, I will take pics and post for you!

ETA: a while back when I was trying to pick a belt from etsy I photoshopped them onto my dress. I guess I can't imagine the quality being less than great. Maybe I'm overtrusting of etsy!

@GNH, I would have been ecstatic with a $70 belt, that looks fantastic! Mine was $195. The sash part is sheer organza, and I'm having it sewn to the front of the dress instead of tied in the back. Here is picture from a catalog, not on me or my dress.

Etsy...mine was I think $30 and loved it

I am wearing one. It was freaking expensive, but since I got such a good deal on my dress I didn't complain. I stuck with purchasing it from DB to match the colors 100%. Buying online terrifies me when I'm trying to match since colors can vary.

Mine was built in to my dress. Have you tried the WW Bride-2-Bride FB page? Belts and sashes pop up on there pretty frequently.

I bought this off of etsy for $50. The one I wanted in the store was $245. You can't tell the difference in quality to be honest. I love it.

I made mine from a necklace

Sharon I love yours! I'm also going to have mine sewn on if my alterationist can do it without any issue. I don't love the ribbon tied on the back of my dress.

I would also be concerned buying it on Etsy, but I think if you can figure out what you want in a store you can probably find one like Melissa did. I wanted one less thing to worry about so I just went for it.

Jenn I love it when your wedding photos pop up on any thread! Yours looks really good! Nice DIY!

Aww thanks GNH!! Soon you'll be like... stopping posting your damn wedding pics! ha ha ha

I swapped out the belt from the original to another - I don't want to talk about how much it was, but it looked like it was part of the dress I think even more so than the original -

Pic 1 - how well the belt matches the bead work on the top

Pic 2 - better look

Pic 3 -original
