That's a beautiful dress!!! When is the wedding? If you can't find another dress, what are your other options?
Shannon
Thanks! I'll alter the other dresses, and have the made of honor wear something different if I can't find another one. Thanks for writing!
That's a great idea!!! When is the wedding?? What colors are you using for the wedding? What kind of flowers? I apologize for being overly inquisitive. I never had an actual wedding so they really intrigue me. LOL!
Please make sure to come back and post some pictures
Shannon
I am going to TJMaxx today. I will look for you and post either way. BTW, the dress is beautiful. My wedding was almost 19 years ago, so not sure of the price of bridesmaid dresses these days, but $199 sounds super! Best wishes!
Brenda
Thank you for posting! I really appreciate everyone's help!
To Shannon: It's kind of funny about choosing colors, I was thinking yellows and oranges, but just saw the dresses and thought, maybe we can switch it to blues and yellows? I think we're going to go with whatever flowers are seasonal to be sustainable & keep the costs down! Thanks for your interest!
I checked my local TJ's and I'm so sorry to report that they did not have this dress (in any size). I will keep looking for you though.
When is the wedding??
Please keep us informed! I'd love to know if you find the dress or what you do as an alternative.
Happy Shopping, Brenda
Oh I love those colors natalie! I was married like *cough* eons ago. And it was beautiful! I bet yours will be too! Do you have a set date yet? I am with the rest. Please keep us informed
Planning a wedding can be fun, and actually there are some really inexpensive things you can do also. Are you going to make your invitations?
Tam
Thanks everyone! To Tam: We're planning for summer next year. I just made the engagement dinner invitations, and that in itself was a big project, so I probably won't be cut out to do my own wedding invitations! I think to cut costs & be sustainable, we're going to buy potted plants to plant at my mom's house, and then around the time of the wedding cut those flowers for the arrangements. Other than that, I'm not sure where to cut costs!
Thanks! -Nat
natalie79,
Any luck finding that last dress??? If not, have you found an alternative??
Brenda
Hi All!
Happy to report that I did find an alternative! It was actually pretty easy to go to a local wedding dress shop and find a maid of honor dress in a solid light blue color that matched the other three.
Thanks so much for writing in & helping me out! Sorry I panicked about finding another dress like the other ones! But now everything's fine.
Thanks!
-Nat
Nat I am so glad to hear that you found an alternative!!! You have to keep us updated as far as the preparations go. I have to live vicariously through you, as I never had an actual wedding. LOL! What are you serving at your engagement dinner? Do you have a theme for that?
Shannon
As I've been following along in this conversation it occurred to me, Nat, that you should start a blog here to talk about your wedding preparations. You can share pictures in the photo album area, too. Then we can ALL live vicariously through you!!
