Hello everyone!  I'm looking at a bunch of different places to do my dress.  I have looked at dressilyme, babyonline, monica bridal, topbridaldress, and duosheng to get quotes and all that good stuff.  I'm wanting the Maggie Sottero "Rachael", but I want off the shoulder straps added like on the Private Label by G 1391. I was looking through the thread and liked what I saw for duosheng and Monica Bridal.  Monica Bridal and Babyonline said they could do the straps.  Dressilyme said they could do it, but they'd have to change the neckline which I'm fine with.  They said they could do it for $213.19 excluding shipping.  We talked about the beading, and at first they said they couldn't do it.  Then when I told them I know it can't be 100% but I would like it as close as possible, they said they could get it at about 89%.  Monica bridal said they could do it for about $147.  Babyonline could do it for $150, but I've read here that Monica bridal does a better job at beading.  I'm not really sure who to go with.  Monica Bridal said they'd send me a picture of beading they've done that resembles my dress, but after the holiday is over (which is fine because I'm in no rush).  All I've seen on duosheng here lately is their communication is very much lacking so that makes me nervous.  The two big things I'm worried about is the beading and the big bow on the backside which is my favorite.  I'll add pictures and hope they show up!  

 

 

 

Please forgive my lack of "photoshop" skills. LOL That's the idea I want atleast! Anyways, who do you think I should go with?

 

 

 

Hi I am new to this thread and wish I found it ages ago. I am expecting this dress from Babyonline tomorrow and dont think I asked enough questions before placing my order so very nervous about what I will get.

The dress is beautiful.  I've only ordered from Monica Bridal.  Two wedding dresses and a veil.  The two dresses are in my profile album.  The ruffled dress and the pink dress.  The veil hasn't arrived yet for the pink dress.  The other is a sample pronovias.  I think the only complaints that were ever posted about Monica Bridal on here was about sizing.  I'm sure some others will chime in. My ruffled dress was a little big but that was my fault for not having my measurements taken by a pro.  I had pro measurements taken to provide to the rep for the pink dress and you can see from the pics that it fit like a glove.  They are fantasic with detailing ie beads, embroidery and appliques etc etc.  The rep is a sweetheart to deal with and is very accommodating.  Just make sure you have lots of conversation with her before you order.   Good luck.

Ok Ladies.  I have the dress.  I am so excited.  I basically want the dress on the left but with the beading on the right.  For the shoulder, the beading will also be just like the right picture.  In the back, I want the beading to line the "V".  What do you think?  Do you think Monica Bridal can replicate?  From this thread it seems as they have the best beading techniques.
