I had my two horrid days dress shopping last month and I finally recovered enough to go again. Today I drove out to Fantasia in Rocky Point (an hour trip). They carried the Jasmine that I liked and according to Bonny's website, the Bonny I liked. Well, they no longer carry Bonny and the Jasmine sample was gone.
BUT...they were so, so, so nice. I finally enjoyed dress shopping. I tried on the Maggie Sottero below. Not sure about the sleeves (they're optional) but I finally felt pretty in a dress.
try contacting phyllis at bridal Elegance (gownfind.com). [email protected]. She saved me LOADS of $$$ on m y maggie sottero...it was originally out of my budget, now its mine good luck!

Thanks! It might be this one if I can get a deal. I told FH about it and even showed him the pic and he was like 'if you want it, we'll get it'.

So, gownfind.com and Bridal Elegance (in Dix Hills) are the same thing? Or am I having a 'duh moment'?

Re: I went dress shopping...
YAY! I called gownfind and they were $212 less than Fantasia! That's an improvement!
I'm still confused. Gown find is party of Bridal Elegance?

YAY! happy the dress was cheaper!
Gownfind.com is run by Phyllis. She used to do business out of her house with Gownfind, and then LIW blew her up and brides were coming to her left and right....and last year she opened up her own store....Bridal Elegance in Dix Hills, cause she was too overwhelmed at her place.
She really is great, and if you buy your gown from her, she will usually give you a decent price on alterations & bustle. I LOVED the work she did on my gown.
