Thank you so much for the information! I thought it was odd that I couldn't find any reviews for the site. I've searched around and it seems that DressilyMe has great reviews and I LOVE how they will send you images of the dress before they ship it in case you want to make alterations.

So a chinese woman picked up..I thought that was a very good look. There customer service answered me within a few hours also!! Now if we can just see some of their work or a bride who has used them we would be good. This was his inital reply to me when I asked about him advertising actual designer dresses and clarification that they were in fact replicas:

Help! Here is the Maggie Sottero dress that I just absolutely loved at first sight. The only thing that bothers me is the flower detail. Sadly, I have already asked, and it's not a simple thing to remove. My next option is to have it custom made but I can't decide on who I should order from. Please give me your thoughts. This dress is 1150, but I can get it for 1050 with free alterations. My issue is, I don't like the flower, but I'll still consider buying the dress. OR I can get a custom replica for less and not have that flower. The only bad part is that I will have to cover my own alterations. All in all, I want the Maggie Sottero top part and the Enzoani skirt.

ieiedress: She makes wonderful dresses and is highly reviewed. What's nice is that she is here in the US. Looking at her work, she makes a great Diana-inspired Vera Wang dress, so I know she can handle the edgy skirt that I like. Quoted at about 500

landybridal: They actually sent me a photo of a similar dress that they made. The only changes I would make to their dress would be to add a sweetheart neckline and corset back. Quoted at 400.

Bridalbliss: great etsy reviews. Again, based on her work, I know she can handle the skirt. Estimated at 800. Please see the example below.

Dressilyme: Recommended site from China. Here is a photo of their work.

Shades of Pale: Another recommended company. They have great photos on their Facebook. Here is an example.

Duosheng: Highly recommended company from China. They have a similar dress, and they quoted me at 380 for regular organza and 480 for high quality.

Babyonline: Another recommended site. Quoted at 160

Jasmine Bridal: A bit more expensive than the other China sites, but I read awesome reviews. Quoted at 650 for standard, 925 for premium material, 1250 for designer grade craftsmanship

Feel free to share your thoughts, advice, opinions. Thanks in advance!
