Those are gorgeous. I don't think the price is too much. Mine were $200 - plus around $50 for alterations.

Re: Bridesmaid dress????

My dresses are $210, but the salon mentioned a 'discount'. CAn you get a discount ? We are getting my dress and theirs at the same place. Netbride.com is always cheaper, but I decided not to use them - just because I would be taking a chance. You could ask the girls if they can afford the cost.

Re: Bridesmaid dress????

those are very sassy. 240 is not alot. at least to me. i paid 298 for my bridesmaid dress. i actually needed no alterations.

Re: Bridesmaid dress????

First let me say they are beautiful....IMO thats a little pricy. See, I have three BM getting married the same year...I couldn't go that high. Think about it...tax, alterations, shoes, hair, makeup are extras beyond the price of the dress.

Re: Bridesmaid dress????

I thought it was alot too. I have emailed my girls ( I have 8!!) and the overall response since just last night has been VERY positive. They all loved and and are sooo excited. One of the girls' mom does alterations at a boutique so that would probably be free. If I get all eight maybe I can get a discount, thanks for that advice.

I would price them at the Commack Wedding Center, they seem to beat every other price around! Its worth a shot!

Re: Bridesmaid dress????

I've paid that B4 for my BM dress.
You have great taste, I love the dresses!!!!! Gorgeous, very chic.
If your girls aren't complaining, Go 4 It. They will probably be willing to pay, just for you. My girls already told me, don't worry about $$ they are so happy for me.

Re: Bridesmaid dress????

Hey Liz,
Thats' excatly what my girls are saying. I just feel bad b/c they have to pay for so much more.

Thank you all for the compliments. I will see if Commack has them cheaper. The price was from Bridal Reflections in Carle Place and despite the bad reviews they were VERY nice on the phone.

Re: Bridesmaid dress????

Any other suggestions that might carry this line?? Thanks!

Re: Bridesmaid dress????

I think it's a bit on the pricy side. My girls paid $160 + alterations. The dresses are gorgeous though. As long as your bridal party agrees with the price, then go for it.

Re: Bridesmaid dress????

Those are my bridesmaid dresses!!! We ordered them in silver and charcoal instead of ivory and champagne. I absolutely love how they came out - they're gorgeous. We got them at Bridal Reflections in Carle Place.

Re: Bridesmaid dress????

Wow Metphan, You have good taste Bridal Reflections in Carle Place quoted me $240, The Wedding Center in Commack quoted me $200. But I don't know about it. I'm iffy about 'Centers'. Maybe I'll stick w/ Carle Place. My girls are excited about it. These are my actual colors so it matches perfectly!!!!

Re: Bridesmaid dress????

How cool that the MOH gets a different dress yet compliments the BM's at the same time! I like them!

metphan Posted: Sep 25, 2002 04:46 PM

Re: Bridesmaid dress????

ours are the dress on the left. the moh (spel) is wearing the same one as the 3 bms.

i ordered them from Bridal Reflections in early June and they came in about a month ago. We went to see them and we're so happy with how they came out.

Re: Bridesmaid dress????

the dress is beautiful.. I little too much for my girls, but still beautiful.. I would def look into netbride.com I'm almost positive they do Panolpy !! Good luck!

Re: Bridesmaid dress????

Stacedz- Isn't it cool. That was the look we wanted. Difft for MOH yet similar.

Metphan- Wow, it took 3 months. That's O.K because I have PLENTY of time. I started early b/c I thought it would be hard to get 8 girls to agree but low and behold I said how about this one and everyone was like SURE!!!!!

MarcellaBella- Thanks for that tip girl I just emailed Netbride.com for a quote.

Thank you all for the compliments. It sure makes me feel like I made the right choice
