wedding dresses 75 off image
claudia
My friends all tell me that it will make me feel cheap but its beautiful and it was 75% off at JC penny. The other one I was looking at was at a bridal shop for $350. Should I just go with the bridal shop one?
Answer
As long as you like it, wear it. No shame in wearing a $14 dress. It's better then spending 300 bucks, after all, the wedding day only lasts for a day, but you two will live a lot longer with the debt... If you found a 14 dollar dress that YOU like, that's the bomb! Forget your friends, they ain't going to buy it for you. You like the dress so wear it. And CONGRATULATIONS

How long do I need to allow myself to buy a wedding dress "off the rack"?

My wedding is in September 2010. I keep hearing different timings about how long you have before the wedding to choose a dress, and the mention of "custom" dresses keeps popping up. Are people really designing their own dresses these days? Like, sketching it - and working with a designer to create it?
Answer
I bought my dress off the rack. If your wedding is in September, I would buy it a couple months before. You need to allow one month for alterations, and you want some wiggle room for photos or emergencies. Of course, if your weight doesn't change much then buy it whenever, I bought mine more than a year in advance on clearance, 75% off. That was at David's Bridal, it was one of the designer gowns they carry, it is a ballgown with Japanese organza overlay and embroidered roses and glass beads. They aren't the same as the ones in a boutique which you must order like 6 months in advance.
I think when people say custom they are talking about like a dress off of eBay where a Chinese company makes it for you, not their own custom look and seamstress. It isn't the right word, I think. "Custom wedding dress" get 30,000 hits on eBay.
