Re: Whats the best places to look for my dress
I had a great plus size experience at village bridal and they have a lot of up to date, contemprorary styles which is what I was looking for. Paradise bridal had a lot of plus size samples as well, but a lot of the styles were more mature looking. Still a great place to go though. Liz at PAradise is awesome.

Re: Whats the best places to look for my dress
thats suprising that village said they didnt have alot, i just got mine there last weekend and im a size 14 and could try mostly every dress on (granted some didnt zip up all the way). some of the samples were even size 22 - i would go there anyway if i were you they do have a large selection and are really the nicest salon i've been too, they dont work on comission so they dont pressure you to make a decision or rush you out to get to the next appt in

Re: Whats the best places to look for my dress
My wedding gown is a size 28 and I tried on samples at:
Paradise Bridal Village Bridal Bridal Reflections Massapequa Bridal Suite of Centereach Bridal Suite of Bayshore Fantasia Bridal (where I got my dress!) Kleinfelds Lillettes
You can get into sizes smaller than your actual size. I believe I got into a few 16s.
ETA: Def check out Maggie Sottero. Mine is a Maggie and I loveee her

Bridal Elegance in Huntington. I actually went there on my second trip out and was dreading trying on sample size dresses that were like size 6 (I wear a 10). When I got into Bridal Elegance alot of the sample dresses ranged from 14-18.

quite a few of them have detachable sleeves, so you might not see it on the model in pics you are looking at, but you can get them
plus, how tall are you? if you are under 5 foot 8, you are going to need a hem, so maybe they could use the extra fabric to make little sleeves. if you're tall, you could always order extra length to have sleeves made
i feel like getting sleeves made for any dress is somewhat simple
