I am hoping and praying not to spend more than $1500 total...thankfully I've fallen in love with Maggie gowns which seem to be in that price range!

MS gowns are gorgeous, my sister had her royal romance in diamond white. her gowns are in that range and if you want to save a little more $$ if you know someone getting married before you that you are close with , ask to borrow their crinolin..it will lower your alteration cost. if you get the same color gown maybe you can borrow veil too.

i'm gonna see if my sis veil will match my gown....i may use her headpiece too, still undecided. i would use her hoop & crinolin but we can't find it...... which is strange. where could a giant hoop skirt with criolin run off too?

I actually ordered my dress online from a Chinese wholesale site. It got here in just under a month and it's perfect! Best part? dress, petticoat, and shipping came to under three hundred dollars!

$1900 for the dress, including entirely redesigning the top (it's strapless and I want off the shoulder)
