Karin I'm glad I saw you today! I never see LIW brides (or if I do, I don't know who they are!). I came on here to see how you did today...I went to Bridal Reflections last week and found one that I really liked and I was back there today with my mom and to show my aunt for her opinion. The dress I love from there is the Vienna also!! How funny is that!? Isn't it beautiful!? I'm stuck between that and another lace one by maggie! her dresses are beautiful!

And the people at BR are so nice also. Don't worry about the size of dresses. I'm about the same size as you and i've fit into more dresses than I thought!!! Can't wait to see what else you find. It's so much fun!

melissa, that is SO funny that you love the vienna aswell... it is gorgeous! I wasnt sure how it would look since its between A-line and trumpet but its amazing!!!! What is the name of the other dress you are deciding between? I wanted to try on the Freya but BR didnt have it so before I make a decision ill have to hunt it down

who else carrys a lot of Maggie? Also, could you believe the price!!! I was shocked (in a good way )

I also found another one called Diana Royale at Renates in lindenhurst and today i went to Lillettes and found Grace. i really like all 3, but i like vienna and grace the best. Lillettes has a LOT of maggies. They were very nice, so I would suggest going there too. Hopefully you can find the dress you want to try on b/c they don't carry every dress. lillettes didnt have the vienna.

Also, i would suggest telling the next place if they can do better than the price you got and give them a lower price to start! i got renates and lillettes to go about $200-300 lower than BR had them! And they can order any dress you want!

awesome point about the prices!! I also asked if they had Grace at BR and they didnt... im going to try and make an appointment at Lillettes for Tuesday night!! I just looked at the Diana Royale in your album and its beautiful aswell! Keep me posted when you make a decision!

Re: ok so im finally off.. (update)

they said they didn't have grace?? you know, i tried grace on at Lillettes, but when I went back to BR I asked for Vienna and Grace so I could look at them both. They brought out a dress, that I thought was grace, but my mom and aunt said it looked different. Either it was still in the dressing room where i was and they couldn't find it or that wasn't the dress i thought it was!!

Did you know when you put it on? I like them both for different reasons, but I really can't make up my mind!!

Re: ok so im finally off.. (update)

yah she said she didnt think they carried Grace but i think she also wanted to get me out, i did try on like 10 dresses i loved the Vienna as soon as i put it on. She had me in a Marisa with pickups and it was pretty but i thought a little too puffy for my hips. I kept saying something a little more fitted would give me a better shape. then she pulled the Vienna and it looked almost trumpet on me.

Did you like the ivory and pewter? I would order the ivory and pewter which I think was the sample?

we well see after lillettes but I had an AMAZING feeling about the vienna. my sister and BM almost feel on the floor when I came out wearing it

Re: ok so im finally off.. (update)

LOL...yes, I loved the ivory and pewter. My mom didn't even know it wasn't white until i told her! It was beautiful.

I think the Vienna is my first choice, but I don't know for sure. I need the next few days to think about it, but Maggie's take so long to come in you have to order soon!

Tell Lillettes the dress was about $200 less and they should give you a better price. Plus they give all their brides an extra $50, which I just found out. Their alterations also only go up to $295, which is less than BR. Just a little background info! Good luck!!!
