That dress is beautiful! See if you can find someone who will custom make it. It looks worth it!

 

Tammy, it's the first dress under Spring Collection page 2

Oh that is really pretty. Yeah Elizabeth's bridal has some pretty expensive gowns, but I love their selection. I refused to try on a dress that was out of my budget because I knew I would want it if I put it on.. :-)

That's so pretty!! I think you should get it!

find a seamstress. the dress design is almost exactly like the dress i wore to my senior prom - only mine was a different color of course. my mom made it. and we even found a pattern that was pretty close.

heres a top thats similar -
Butterick - B4451 - MISSES' SHRUG, TOP AND SKIRT - 4451

and i would think anyone experienced in making wedding gowns has made the bottom part of that gown 1000 times.

The dress is gorgeous, I love the long waisted dresses, I think they are so slimming! Maybe you can splurge for it and cut backs somewhere else?

thanks guys... yea i really want it but 4000 is a little crazy for a 2nd wedding i think it looks pretty simple to make too... im going to see if i can make friends with a local seamstress and take my chances...

You know, the women that runs the trunk shows out of Elizabeth Bridal is also a seamstress, but no longer does work for them. I'll ask Missy if she still has her card.. (if you want me too that is)
