What are price ranges for designers like Bill Levkoff, mori lee, watters or Dessy? I like a lot of the Levkoff designs.
I know Davids Bridal has cheaper dresses like $100-150 but I have a thing about them and would really rather not get them from there.
Are other places pretty pricey? I would like to try to keep the price down for my girls :)

Re: affordable BM dresses?
you can get those dresses at RK Bridal for cheaper. Its the no frills where you dont get alterations. I got my girls dresses there and it was $75 less than in a bridal salon. Mine was Watters & Watters and they are $160.Also there is www.netbride.com which gives a discount. If you email them with the style # they give you a price quote.

Re: affordable BM dresses?
I've heard the problem with ordering online is that you may not be getting what you are paying for. eq: knock of dress. I don't know anyone who has experienced this, just thought you should know.
My girls tried on Lazaro dresses and Jim Helm. They were close to $200.00-$225.00
We picked out the perfect BM dress at Lotus Bridal. It's a charmuse Bari Jay and she gave me 10% off each dress b/c I have at least 5 BM. The total cost was $160.00 plus alterations which she estimated $30.00. Katie and Wendy are awesome there. It's in Brooklyn, but the service is worth the drive.

We ordered Tissue Taffeta Bill Levkoff from netbride, they are totally legitimate (not knock-offs). We got all different dresses, and they ranged in price from $122-$168 (but in bridal salons the same dresses were more like $180-$240).

I got my bridesmaid dresses from Lillettes in Baldwin. They are Bari Jay Dresses. They were only $160 and they are gorgeous. I hope this helps. Christina

Re: affordable BM dresses?
My girls purchased their dresses from RK Bridals.
The no frills price came to about $110.00.
I was totally set on having this one certain dress, but after seeing it in person and having the girls try it on, i absolutely HATED it lol I wound up going with this dress, which I just happened to see on the closest rack , and it fit everyone beautifully and it was cheap, even better!

I was also going to recommend Lillette's in Baldwin- I got my gown there but since I had two OOT ladies I couldn't do the dresses from there I had to go to David's which I was totally happy with and they were affordable.
I would try and see if diffrent salons price match or beat the prices you can find elsewhere.

Alfred Angelo dresses are very reasonably priced, my girls paid abour 130-150 and there is a great selection to choose from. We got them at the Lynbrook Bridal Center...but you can check on the website and it lists all the locations where you can get the dresses. here's a pic of my BMs

Re: affordable BM dresses?
I have to second Net bride. I got my BM dresses there for 1/2 of what the bridal salons were charging.
I too loved a jim hjelm bm dress but i did not want my girls to pay $320 for the dress so I found the exact same dress by a different designer at 1/3 of the price & I actually like it better than the jim hjelm.
