I bought beautiful veil from venusveils on ebay. it is a cathedral veil with scattered rhinestone. if you look at my review of dressilyme then you can see a picture with my dress. I paid $26 dollars canadian including shipping. I'm glad i didn't spend the money. here is the link: http://stores.ebay.com/Venus-Veils

Thanks!!

Has anyone ordered from or know of Zizi Bridals?  They gave me a quote $100 less than Jasmine's Bridal and the works looks just as nice.  I can't seem to find much on them though; their website is apparently being rebuilt, but here is their Facebook page: http://www.facebook.com/#!/pages/ZiZi-Bridals/214265621992508

 

The email is [email protected] and the name listed comes through as Zaynab Zubair.  She's very helpful and seems knowledgeable, but I am worried that I haven't seen anything about this company on this thread...

 

Thoughts?

I totally agree! I told my mum to take it to a seamtress but she thinks the cups are sewed into the lining and they won't be able to remove it but I think they can. we will see if she listens to me closer to the wedding.

So I went dress shopping today for the first time!!! So exciting!! I fell in love with this dress!! I just emailed Jasmine's for a quote. I didn't see the dress on Jasime's site, I think it just came out.

I'm looking for some advice. I had my MOH, bridesmaids, and chatelaine dresses all picked out from David's Bridal's online website (F12284) in our wedding colors, watermelon, lapis, and I thought peacock. However, when I went to the store to check out the dresses in person, I found out that the color I really wanted was not the darker peacock but the more teal color oasis.

 

Here's my problem. F12284 does not come in oasis. According to David's Bridal this leaves me with two options, either choose a new dress style that comes in our colors or substitute the oasis color I want for jade (the closest color to oasis for that dress).

 

Maybe I'm asking too much, but I don't like either options so I want to order the oasis dresses from overseas. I checked with Milly's Bridal and they will do it for $138, which is $39 more than the David's Bridal dress. So here are my questions for you

 

1) Anyone have any experience ordering chiffon bridesmaids dresses from China?

 

2) Anyone have advice on who might be able to make this dress style reliably?

 

3) Anyone have any other suggestions than any of the ones I have included in this post.

 

Thanks!
