2 Wedding Dresses

So Im planning to wear 2 wedding gowns at the reception....

I will be walking out in a typical ball gown with a cathedral train and I was thinking of bringing some changes in the usual one wedding dress that everyone in my family does....i wanted to wear my ball gown for the first couple of hours than disappear for like 2 minutes and change into a very simple elegant straight white dress with no train and walk into the rh like a regular guest and straight onto the dance floor...

what do you guys think

and secondly

where can i find a simple elegant straight white dress with an off the shoulder type sleeve.....and cheap...???

i would .love to hear your ideas

I remember dillards has great dresses, there aren't any in ny i think but their website is worth checking out.

JCrew has reasonable prices, so does Isaac Mizrahi for Target Online (Spelling is wrong, but some of his dresses are cute)

That sounds like so much fun ;)!!!

I can think of two places:

1. David's Bridal might be worth a try -- they have good prices and sometimes that $100 sale. Also their simple dresses are less costly than say a traditional gown.
or
2. maybe a bridesmaid dress in white or off white-- I have heard of brides doing this. They won't be that expensive and will have no train.

Hope that helps!
