I GOT MY DRESS!!

Original post by Josie

Hey girls, I posted this under the November brides topic, but I just wanted to share with all of you. I am so happy!! After trying on a gazillion dresses in different styles and going to several stores I finally found the dress!!

Here is a pic of the front-let me know what you think! Keep in mind this is not the dress I originally pictured for myself but when I saw it in the mirror-- I said--this is it!! I just loved the way it felt & looked!

No problemo - I love posting pics
You're going to look gorgeous !!!!

Do you know what kind of veil you want yet? What length?

Re: I GOT MY DRESS!!

I was thinking of getting a simple, elbow length veil with a tiara that complements the dress, the dress has swavroski crystals so I'm hoping to find a tiara with the same kind of crystals... Any suggestions as to what type of veil I should use?

I'm also not sure how I'm wearing my hair, I am thinking either all the way up or either half up/half down..I have long, naturally wavy hair so I have to think about it b/c I may blow it straight that day,

I am planning to check out Sposabella, as well as C&H in the city for the veil & headpiece... Does anyone have any suggestions on where to go?

Re: I GOT MY DRESS!!

thanks regina, after checking out Klienfelds, David's bridal & a few other stores, I got my dress at RK Bridal! I recommend that place b/c it had a great selection & they carry designer dresses at discount prices, like the one I got--I just loved the price b/c i didn't want to spend too much.. RK is great , just get there early so you can take your time trying everything on

Josie-

That's great news about RK Bridal..I have an appt there on Sunday at 11:30. I'm really looking forward to it.

Is there onything I should bring with me?

regina- they have different sizes in strapless bra/ corset that ppl can use but i think its always good to take the style of underwear you plan to use. Strapless is good so you can try on all types of dresses. Also, if you want you should take pics of dresses that you like from mags. in case you don't see any that you like, you can give the person an idea of what you're looking for. The person who was helping me was really good in getting different styles she thought would look good on me... Their racks are labeled by designer & price range, also if you get to your appt. early, they have an area at the back of the store with photo albums with wedding gowns labeled by designer which you can leaf through & then point out to them which one you would like..

Josie-

Thanks for the help!! I hope I find something there, I'm getting a bit nervous that I will never find something.....

I unfortunately fell in love with the first dress I tried on but it was way too much money!!!

Re: I GOT MY DRESS!!

i would keep trying if I were you. Don't worry, I'm sure you will find something that you can afford. WHat is the designer & style# of the dress you fell in love with?? Maybe they carry that at RK Bridal at a cheaper price? If anything they may have something similar to it..
