Finding the right dress

Grace, on March 25, 2021 at 10:25 AM

Posted in Wedding Attire 31

I found a dress I really liked but it was way over budget. I've been looking online and I found a few I can try before I buy, it just takes so long for my size to come back into stock. We are getting married in August and I'd really love to check this off of my list. Any suggestions on other dress...

    It has been altered to fit someone who's 5'6" but you're only 5'3" right? Also I don't know if you saw my sizing comment, but I think this would be a GREAT option for you!

    I had the same issue! Fell in love with a dress but couldn't bring myself to spend almost 2000$ on it when it was just going to end up in the ocean for wedding pictures 30 minutes after the ceremony. So I went online to JJHouses and found something sooo similar for literally 1/8th of the price! I absolutely love my dress and the price tag- it fit like it said it would and the only thing I am having done to it is having the bottom hemmed slightly so I don't trip over it (begin 5 foot 2 though I already anticipated this) I hope this helps!

    Yup I did see your sizing help! This forum is something I'm still learning to navigate. I try to reply to individuals instead of the entire forum, or something and it just shows up somewhere.

    Hey guys! I was able to find the dress I wanted in a good size and price! However the next step for me is to get it cleaned, and then fitted.
