Any Plus Size Brides?? Need Help

Need to find that perfect dress!!! Where is a good place to find that perfect dress besides David's Bridal? How about to find a dress that fits so you can how it looks?

My dress was an Alfred Angelo and they have plus sizes. Try going to their website to find bridal shops that sell their stuff and you can call the shops to ask if they have any of the larger sized dresses to try on.

I believe there's a plus size bridal store in Lynbrook on Sunrise Highway. I'm sorry, I don't know the name of it but it's right by White Castle and the train station.

I think Lynbrook Bridal is the one you are talking about- that is where I got my dress. The salesperson I dealt with was wonderful, but I wasn't as happy with the alterations there.

FYI- I am a 16 or 18 and some of the dresses there did fit, some could be clipped in the back to give me an idea of what they looked like.

I went to RK BRidal. They are the BEST to deal with. SKIP DAVID'S BRIDAL.... THEY ARE THE WOOLWORTHS OF THE BRIDAL INDUSTRY....

I went to the Bridal Suite of Patchogue, they had a room full of Plus sized dresses (including 26's). I hear tons of stuff from Lillette's in Baldwin. I'm going there tomorrow to look for BM dresses. There is a thread on here for plus size brides I will try and bump for you.

Briddal SUite of Patchogue has a HUGE selection!! They have a lot of Plus sizes on sale fot 350 and less right now too..(I think they are samples, but theya re gorgeous_

Just don;t use them for alterations, after the dress is sold, the service SUCKS!
