Re: Ok I could use some help!!!

Oooo good project! OK starting with the assumption that "cheap" means NOT
(vs. you know, slutty) My BF got married 8 years ago and we found a strapless satin dress for her in white, with a blush pink accent across the top of the straight bustline. I think it cost under $200 at the bridal store. WHY? it was a BRIDESMAIDS dress!!!!
I'd start there, even check out Davids bridal bridesmaids section, they have the best assortment of colors out there, and they do a mix n match separates thing that could be cool?

If you have a budget let us know, are we talking under $500, under $200?

Re: Ok I could use some help!!! I need a CHEAP wedding dress

When do you need it by? there seem to be alot of places on ebay that are doing custom deisgns for super cheap-probably synthetic materials but if you're soaking it in the ocean water anyway it doesn't matter. $49.99 well spent.

The kicker is it seems to take a few weeks-nothing obscene but might take over a month. But Ebay had some nice stuff. No idea what size you wear though so I didnt bookmark any of the pages.

Re: Ok I could use some help!!! I need a CHEAP wedding dress

there are always dresses at thrift stores. I had gone to a few of them that had some out dated looking dresses but sometimes in a high end area you will find a AMAZING dress for $50

Re: Ok I could use some help!!! I need a CHEAP wedding dress

like i mentioned on another thread, we're doing day after pics too and im on a search for a second dress as well, nothing too pricey. here's what i came up with so far. i can't promise anything under 100, since i havent found anything in that range that ive liked or that didn't LOOK really cheap. but ive found beautiful stuff for a couple hundred or a bit more.

for one, if you search destination wedding dresses, you may find alot more options. i think dessy has a line of them. they're usually not too pricey.

search jcrew, bcbg, target, davids, ebay, etc.

and bridesmaid dresses come in white/ivory and many are not bad in terms of .

GL!

Keep me updated if you find anything good! I need help myself!
