Help! I can't afford "Grace loves Lace"

Jimmy and Danielle, on April 7, 2014 at 7:08 PM Posted in Style and Décor 2 14

I'm completely in love with the Grace Loves Lace line of dresses that I see all over Pinterest and Etsy. However, my tight budget just can't swing it. In fact, I got a more expensive engagement ring because "it matters way more than the dress." Needless to say, I'm eating my words. I've fallen in love with these dresses and am wondering if anyone else has had this problem and knows of a solution. I love the lace, cap sleeves, and flow of these dresses, but am working with a $500 budget. I would even love to find a place that makes handmade dresses, or a used dress. I'm incredibly hesitate to buy online from Japan, as I've read some scary reviews. Thanks for any help!

    I love the first one, thank you! The one you posted on the second comment keeps catching my eye, but I think I want it to be more flowy with longer sleeves, but it's so pretty!

    Hello all!

    I'm absolutely in love with the Hollie dress from Grace Loves Lace, but in the same boat, out of my price range. Did you have any luck with finding anything similar to their work? Or finding their dresses at discount? If you find anything out I would also love to know!

    Many thanks!

    Try Alfred Angelo! I went there and many of their dresses had the same flowy look. I ended up with the 8506 style!

    I actually looked on preownedweddingdresses.com found a lot of good stuff. There are a lot of pre owned dresses and there not all used some brides just changed there minds. I oddly enough got mine on craigslist lol the woman was selling her $2000 Maggie Sottero Ambrosia gown for $600 she only took photos in it and it was my size meant to be!!!!! Especially when I got it for $400:-) just check it out you'll be surprised

    Lace itself is expensive. I am having a custom dress made and bought my lace wholesale. 4 yards $220. That was with a 30% discount. My dress is only tea length too. If you want a seemstress lookup Meegan Carroll designs on Facebook.

    I'm in the ame boat, unfortunately. Stillehite.com has some of their dresses for less, but they're still out of my budget range.
