So far in my search for a dress I liked this one the best - the only problem it is double what I wanted to spend . I am going to Kleinfelds on Oct 25 and maybe I'll fall in love with something else and cheaper. My friends aren't crazy about the diamond crystal thing on the dress - it can be removed but it actually looks nice when I tried it on. I found a place in NJ that is willing to give me 10%. Any thoughts?

I am a firm believer in getting the dress you want - I think this dress is absolutely stunning. If you love it, find a way to get it - cut back on the money you plan to spend on some of your vendors or get the dress made....it is absolutely gorgeous!

try calling pearls place

you can find the number at www.pearlsplace.com

they don't list rivini - but have tons of brands so they may be able to order it for you cheaper - plus you are giving business to a shop that is in a hard hit area from Katrini - they are in lousinanna -i bought my bridesmaid dresses from them and they came out great

Its made by Rivini. What other dress have you seen that you can recommend? I like the Monquie Lhullier sp? her run a little cheaper than the Rivini dresses.

well of course when I am actually looking for them, I can't find them. But here are a few I remembered.

this one is Carmen Marc Valvo. its lace overlay w/beading.

Melissa Sweet

Mori Lee

Marisa

Jenny Lee (little more on the high end)

Jim Hjelm

Thanks. Actually I saw Jenny Lee in a magazine yesterday and am looking to try on some of here dresses. I love Melissa Sweet - hopefully Bridal Reflections or Priscilla of Boston carries that designer. Pls keep the suggestions coming. Here is a dress I liked a lot cheaper.
