So I had posted that I found my dress like two months ago. The Maggie Soterro Ivandra. It's part of the new collection. Somebody was so kind and posted it for me because I'm a idiot lol. Well we never purcahsed it. We wanted to check one more store because we still had an appointment but after that store I knew 100% it was the one! My parents and sister and I had had the dress moment the first time I put it on which I was not expecting. So fast forward to Thursday when I thought I was going to be buying the dress. My parents, sister came again, and I also brought my FMIL and FHs aunt and two of my bridesmaids. Everybody loved it except my bridesmaids. They both said they loved the top of the dress but they didnt like the bottom. My one BM who has been my friend since I am 4 told me that the lace on the bottom looked cheap =( My other BM just didnt like the bottom, it's not her style or whatever. So she had me second guessing I dont want my dress to look cheap. It's 2000 how cheap could it look?? I know it's not a high end desinger but it's still really pretty and I love that it's different. So I wound up not getting the dress(but also the woman at bridal reflections in massapequa was rude and rushing us out bc they were closing even though we had to wait for her because when we got there she was still with somebody). I got in the car with my everybody except my BMs and just cried. Everybody said it doesnt look cheap and it's a beautiful dress and it looked so good on me. So I'm going back to RK bridal on Thursday where I originally tried it on and going back to the girl who found it for me. I only went to bridal reflections because I thought I was having the BM dresses from there and they do a deal or something if you purchase the dress. So I'm sorry for ranting but how could my BM say that knowing that that was THE dress
UPDATE--I can't get the picture to post!!

It does not matter what the BM thought of it. All that matters is that you LOVE it. Who cares if it is not the BM style. She does not have to wear it. It is your style and that is all the matters!
ITA! You know what you like. If I sat and listen to some of my BM my dress would be what they wanted for them...not for me! GO GET YOUR DRESS!!!!! (by the way it is stunning, and once it comes in BRAND NEW, it will look even more GORGEOUS than the sample!)

Re: my bm called my dress cheap
your dress is seriously stunning! the bottom does not look cheap at all! everyone is entitled to their own opinions, however, they should have kept their mouths shut on this one if they saw how much you loved this dress. Go with your first choice and buy this dress come thursday. RK Bridal is fabulous and your going to be a gorgeous bride!

Re: my bm called my dress cheap
I know EXACTLY how you feel although I wasnt told the material was cheap, I was told it was not classy enough and they flat out didnt like it after I had already bought it...this was my stepmother.
Bottom line, my dress arrived today (also from RK Bridal) I went for my try on today and remembered EXACTLY why I bought and fell in love with the dress in the first place. My dress is similar to your and has tool tissue all over the bottom but I love it and thats all that matters. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE do not let anyone affect your decision. This is YOUR day and you are the only one that has to love it and feel beautiful in it. Everyone can stick their head in poop if they don't like it.
Go back try it on and walk away feeling confident with your decision.
