Re: HOW MUCH

The dress that I love and I know I am going to wind up getting is 1800 and I want to add 2 - 3 more feet of material on the train because its a chapel length and I want cathedral. So it will be around 2000.

Re: HOW MUCH

I don't want to spend more than MAYBE 1,000 on dress plus all accessories - where should I be looking for a dress???

Re: HOW MUCH

I second Valentina's (NYlisa just got her dress there, and I am going back because that is where the dress I love is)

Re: HOW MUCH

There is a Valentina love fest goin' on here! My bridesmaids dresses came from them...if I hadn't bought my gown at Kleinfeld..it would have been there!

Re: HOW MUCH

Nylisa told me about them. I went the week before her and I had a fantastic experience. I went the following week as there was a dress there that I LOVE and I couldnt get out of my head (its a custom made dress. Its a dress made exclusively for the store)

I made an appointment to go May 3rd to go back and try on that dress and leave a deposit

Re: HOW MUCH

Valentina designs her own gowns...they are so beautiful. I have a friend that is having one made by her. It's a custom made powder blue sheath with a lace overlay and a 9 foot lace train. It's completely covered in little clear crystals from head to toe. It's going to be INSANE!!!

Re: HOW MUCH

Misty the dress I am in love with is a custom made Valentina. The only thing I am adding is a longer train. It has these fake diamonds on it that make the dress sparkle. I love the dress. I cant wait to leave a deposit so I can take lots of pics of me in it. I will definatly be posting

Re: HOW MUCH

You wanna hear how crazy I am?! My dress cost me $5000! I NEVER expected to spend that much on a dress! I really thought I'd spend a couple hundred dollars for a regular white dress off the rack. I'm insane and I know it - but my MOH and mom certainly didn't curb my insanity. I had to re-evaluate my whole wedding budget after that! But, I must say, it is the dress of my dreams!
