Wedding dress

I have never heard of either of those websites. I strongly advise against buying a wedding dress that you can't try on first!

^agreed.

^agreed!

I would never, NEVER ever ever ever... buy a wedding dress that I couldn't touch, smell, try on. Ever. Never. Bad idea. Worst then self-catering. You could end up spending more on alterations than the dress is even worth, fabric could be poor quality, construction bad quality, could even smell bad (I've had items from different places around the world 'off-gas' strange odors) Look around, there are many bridal boutiques, trunk sales, wedding shows... but buying off a picture? C'mon.

Agreed. Never, ever, ever, ever buy a wedding dress online. Especially if the company is located overseas, because you'll have NO recourse if they don't honor their return/exchange policy.

There has to be other salons in your area. I did a quick google search of bridal salon San Antonio, TX and got these results:

1. The Bridal Salon of San Antonio

2. Destiny's Bridal & Closet

3. Bridal Galleria of Texas

4. Bella Bride Boutique

You could even check out Nordstrom.

I already check out nordstrom

If you want to buy online, I'd look for places with good return policies. BHLDN and JCrew both allow for returns.

Just make sure to check their return policy. If you can return the dress you don't like, you can give it a try.

I'll be the one person that says, if you can find something super inexpensive that you love, take a chance and know you may have to eat whatever you spend! DB has a much larger selection online than they do in store, it seems. They also have sample dresses that are marked way down. You might just want to peruse the site.
