Bridal Wrap or Cape Qstion (Updated With a Pic)

I was just thinking about it - in March and since my gown has 3/4 sheer sleeves with beading I was thinking on purchasing a white cape or cloak or wrap to go in and out the limo with- is this worth doing so I don't freeze?

Also my gown is diamond white and I think it's a bit too late to order one through the bridal salon- would a white one look really bad with it?

These prices are great


i know - that's why the quality is a concern - i don't know anyone who's ordered from them...

Can't really go wrong with those prices though I wonder how the quality is too.

I'm trying to figure out which to try for my girls...

try ebay! my dress is ivory and my capelet is like a light blond. it doesn't have to match exactly...i think it'll look fine!

Thanks for the repost Jess!

I was thinking Ebay but see only ones that are like $100-$150

Maybe ask some '07 brides if they would sell theirs?

Re: Bridal Wrap or Cape Qstion

Not sure on that - also I am a plus size so not sure if it would fit- not all are one size fits all.

Ok I think I found something! A pashmina white shawl with fur trim - cost $40 with shipping.

What does everyone think of this? Can it work?

You should check with the bridal salon where you bought your gown. My daughter got married in Nov. and we ordered fabric from the dress manufacturer and the seamstress made a shawl. It came in handy because we had a cool day for the wedding.

I definitely think it's a good thing to have. I was married in Jan. on one of the coldest days of the year. My faux fur wrap definitely came in handy. I rented mine from Phyllis at Gownfind/Bridal Elegance. Totally worth it IMO.

I think for just going in and out of the limo I'll be okay with it..pashmina I think it supposed to be very warm...
