I wish David's Bridal could stock all the sizes, it is such a risk to try on one size and buy another! I shipped it already and it is ready and waiting in Hawaii! ;-) David's Bridal can ship dresses so inexpensively, and it really was a great stress reducer to know it was already taken care of. I'll post a wedding review sometime in May. For anyone considering this dress, the fabric is just awsome and I adore the pockets! I just know I'm going to cry so I'll have klennex ready!

It's a great dress, and looks comfortable for hot weather. But I understand all about changing your mind. I've changed my mind about my dress multiple times. The good thing about David's Bridal is that you can exchange a dress if it is unaltered and has it's tags. I know from experience! Hope you can make a decision without too much heartache. I know it is hard!

If your dress can roll into a carry-on, I say do it! Here is the bag I bought when that was my plan. Antler Size Zero 'Roll Up' Garment Carrier - CLOSEOUT > Garment Bags > Luggage - eBags

What about this box: Destination Wedding Kit - $52.95 : Zen Cart!, Wedding Gown Preservation I've decided to ship my dress. I'm just too worried about being forced to check it before the flight.

what a lovely dress! Glad ordering it online was a good experience for you. Thanks for the discount code!

I haven't been able to find anything...so I bought these as "back-up" to calm my nerves. Womens - American Eagle - Brit Peep-toe Flat - Payless Shoes

Has anyone used those carry-on sized boxes? I'm too scared to just use a garment bag. or anyone use a folding garment bag from the uk like this: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...tchlink:top:en

Well, I tried it on. Size 6. Here is a photo. What kind of beach shoes would you wear with it?

I already bought a dress last summer, and made the mistake of looking at the new spring dresses at David's Bridal website today. Anyone tried on the Oleg Cassini CT326? I'm curious how it fits on real women. It is slimming at all at the waist? or does it give a preggy look? Anyone have photos of their try-on session? I'm thinking of buying a used one in a 4 or 6. thanks!

Sorry, it is not supposed to be an exact match.

My duosheng dress came today (I ordered it May 11), and I have nothing but good things to say about the whole experience. Sabrina Zhang was fantastic with answering my many, many emails throughout and the quality of the dress is very nice. I ordered it with a lace up back, and I really can't do it myself, so sorry the dress is saggy at the top in the photo. I asked for a replica Maggie dress from 2005, but all white and a ruffle at the top. It did come in a hanging bag, but is extremely wrinkled. I think the dry cleaners can easily fix this. Again, I think the quality is equal to anything else I have seen (note, I have not tried on dresses above $1000). I asked for "best quality", which cost extra, and including the $30 shipping, this dress was $287. Please ask me any questions about Dousheng and I will answer if I can. I sure hope the top fits better when someone else can lace me up, that is my only complaint about the dress.

I saw this cute handbag on ebay, and have emailed the seller several times asking if it comes in white, but no reply. Anyone recognize the brand? I've also searched on etsy, but no one has this type of frame with a center wrist strap. Thanks!

yes, I would like to know how much a wedge will work in the sand myself. Former brides, please help!

Thanks everyone! you're too kind!

Thanks everyone! I went back today and bought it. I love the shrug. It is fantastic! Now I have to figure out what kind of flat sandals would go well with it for the beach.

yes, I think taking a camera is so important!! It is so easy to know exactly what you want the dress to look like, but I keep reminding myself that it is more important what I look like IN the dress. You have to ask yourself, do I like this dress because I can appreciate it as a beautiful peice of clothing, or do I love this because it makes me look beautiful?

It must be a replica site with prices that low. I just looked briefly, but you can't get a Maggie for $250, not even used!

For those without cable--they recently posted a few more full lenght episodes online Say Yes to the Dress Videos : Bride, Kleinfeld, Tips, Buying : TLC

Okay! So i've ordered a replica of a Maggie dress, but I'm so worried the quality won't be great when it gets here that I have been continuing to look for new dresses. (also, I'm just obsessed with it, ha!) I just went to David's Bridal this morning and they have some brand new dresses. This one is so cool. And not expensive! Just thought I would share since it is a brand new one that just came in last week. The collar on the shrug is messed up--sorry! I was trying to see how it looked with my hair up and I must have flattened it. Here is a link to a model in the dress (thought it looks shiny, and the dress is not shiny fabric): David’s Bridal Budget-Friendly Fall Gowns : Hot Mama Daily - Beauty and Fashion Advice for Women of Color

Thanks for sharing this, I think a lot of girls are interested in the custom process. So cool! keep the photos coming!

ebbica, I would love to know the location you chose! If it is too private please PM me. Thanks! ;-) I haven't settled on a location. Diana thought Tunnels beach would be lovely when I mentioned that--but I really am just going off photos in travel books. Thanks! Jennifer

Bump. Make me an offer on either dress! They are boxed and ready to ship. Thanks!

Does anyone know when David's Bridal gets new styles of dresses in? Will there be new ones in the Fall? Thanks!
