Where to buy short wedding dress 29 days

before the wedding??

My gown is super heavy with a chapel train that looks retarted with a bussle. It just occured to me that i should look into getting a short dress because i dont want to be hot and bother... or prevented from dancing the night away lol...

Now... can anyone suggest a place... other than David's Bridal... where i can get a short wedding dress at such short notice??

Online maybe? the city??

My wedding is in 29 daysssssss help

I would definitely try RK Bridal - they have a selection of dresses that are available within 3 weeks.

Don't know how much you are willing to spend considering that you already bought a dress.

Cristina Arzuaga (sp?) keeps a lot of samples in her showroom. She is in the city 2 blocks east of Union Square. She is the sweetest lady. Her website is cristinabridalcollection.com .

She is setting up to sell her dresses in LI in Lynnbrook at a place called Saraz.

Re: Where to buy short wedding dress 29 days

macy's has short white dresses
I would take a ride to Herald Square's Macy's.
Also, Saks is very close and also has short white dresses.

Do you go to NJ? If so, there's a store in the Jersey Gardens Outlet Mall that has so many comfortable dresses - many under $300.
I tried one on last weekend for $90 (on sale)

Re: Where to buy short wedding dress 29 days

Hang on a minute.....what dress are you wearing?

I have a chapel train, and it bustles fine. What kind of bustle are you looking at, french or traditional?

Try Roosevelt field: Jessica McClinton...or something like that...on the 2nd floor. They have lots of gowns on the rack & you may be able to find a bridesmaid's dress in off-white.

ALSO: I have 2 great white dresses: one was bcbg from Bloomingdales, one was from estelle's. Try those places.

Re: Where to buy short wedding dress 29 days

I would try Lord & Taylor. They always have a nice selection of dresses there and they have evening gowns. Worse comes to worse if they have a long gown that you like the style...you can have it cut to made shorter at the taylor. Good thing is - Lord & Taylor does their own altering. I always find nice dresses there for occasions and have had two altered and they came out very nicely.

Re: Where to buy short wedding dress 29 days

Try going to any department store and look for regular white or ivory gowns. I got mine from Macy's. It is just a white gown, but looks very "bridal" when i put a crinolin slip with it and wear my jewelry.
