Wedding dress online

Rose, on January 21, 2020 at 4:25 PM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 17
Has anyone else done this? I found the dress that I love, that is online only. I think I want to go to a bridal shop first to have “the experience” but is it ok to not get anything from a store?

    I bought my first dress from David's Bridal, didn't really love the experience, and almost immediately regretted the dress I bought. I just recently bought a new dress from Azazie.com that came with free custom sizing and I'm SO much happier with the one I chose. I do think it's worth going to a bridal shop to try on different styles to see what you like, I found a dress I loved online that I completely hated once I saw in person! Dresses look so different from when they're online, on the hanger, and on your body. But I could not be happier with the online buying experience I had, just make sure you're purchasing through a reputable site because there are a lot of knock off/scam websites out there.

    I shopped exclusively online and was able to purchase the 👗 that I wanted for a really great price.

    I would just go to the store to try on the gowns to get a feel of if the style is right but buy online aha. Because if you go in person at least you can see if certain styles fit you as well as you think

    It’s totally fine to purchase it online. Today you can literally get anything online!

    I bought my dress online.

    There is a particular Maggie Sottero I wanted, and I couldn't justify $1800 for it. Went online and found almost an exact replica for $100....where you ask? AMAZON.


    I have had no issues with it, and my seamstress who is doing my alterations says it's as good quality as any other dress she has done that costs so much more.


    Don't be afraid to try something on and then do some research to see what else is out there that's similar or exact if you have a specific vision!

    Absolutely. You might confirm the style you like, or change your mind. And the best news is if you find The One in a shop it’ll be extra special because you weren’t expecting it.

    I tried on some dresses in person to get a feel for the different styles/sizes and then bought mine online. It came quite a bit too large but it was higher quality than any I saw in the store at a third the price. I exchanged it and the new size is coming in the mail in a few weeks, so I'm pretty happy with my online experience so far. I would just be careful about sizing!

    I bought my address online through Azazie and love it. I did the home try on and the dress I ordered looks way better in person than it did online.

    A friend of mine used Anomalie for her dress. From what I understand they can completely customize it! And her dress was amazing. It's worth looking into if you're mostly checking online

    My 👰👗shipped from China.


    That wasn’t a problem since I ordered it over a year from when I needed it.
    I also ordered it in a larger size.
    It’s easier to have it taken in than to let it out.
