The dresses that look good on me are in the 4000-6500 range. This is soo frusturating, I can't seem to find a beautiful mermaid dress for less :(

Re: Ahhh! Wedding Dresses cost so much :(
I thought I had problems when all the gowns i liked were $1200-$2000
there has GOT to be cheaper gowns that look amazing on you. Also, there are tons of places who can get the gowns cheaper. FM if you'd like some of the websites that i trust.

Re: Ahhh! Wedding Dresses cost so much :(
have you checked out maggie?? she has some mermaid dresses - at least i think they're mermaid...do you mean like this style??
Yeah, I tried 2 maggie dresses...they were pretty, but I didn't have that ...'oh my god this is the one' feeling. Thanks for the suggestion though :)

my best friend got married last year and bought a beautiful mermaid gown from houseofbrides.com... they are located in chicago, BUT maybe you can investigate their web site and then find the designer out here somewhere.... I know her dress was under $1500..... and it was designer...

i didnt try any on in that price range because i was afraid i'd fall in love with one and i was not going to spend that much

try a trunk show or sample sale, trunk show is 15% off so don't know how much that will help...sample sale i never been to one so not exactly sure but a couple girls on here have and they seem to have gotten a great deal

Re: Ahhh! Wedding Dresses cost so much :(
I'll be honest I ended up spending about $400 more on a gown than I thought I would.. mine is running me (without all the extras- veil, tiara, slip, blusher) $1,080.00- I thought I'd be so concervative and only spend no more than $700.00- but I said in essence to myself that I am only getting married once so gotta live a little as long as it doesn't send me to the poorhouse.
