I am in a dilemma now. My wedding dinner is in 6 weeks time. I will be walking in with an off-white bridal gown, and then at some point of time, I will change into an evening gown. The issue is I am undecided which color to choose for my evening gown - fuschia or lavender. What dress colors should my bridesmaids wear if I choose either of the gowns?
By the way, my table setting colors are cream and peach. My invitation cards are in cream color. How should I coordinate the colors?
Answer
I would say, incorporate as much color as you can, with peaches, coral, pinks, and yellow, preferably with flowers; try putting the bridesmaids in pink or coral â but with this little time, youâll have to take what you can find off the rack because you donât have time to order. They really should have had their dresses already. Then, you could wear the fuschia dress and make a statement without totally clashing with your wedding. Peach can be hard to work with, though. Good luck, and congratulations!

Drycleaning a wedding dress?

Please tell me what experiences you have each had with drycleaning your wedding gown, before or after the wedding. What did it cost?
I was just at David's Bridal last night with my white A line with chapel train wedding dress that I bought off the rack at another David's location. Since it is off the rack, it does not look as clean as I think it should be...since people tried it on in the store.
I talked to their alterations department. They offer a spot cleaning service, but not dry cleaning. They told me if I feel it needs to be cleaned more than just a few spots, to get it dry cleaned elsewhere before getting the alterations done at David's Bridal. My wedding is in April, 2008...David's Bridal told me I could go ahead and get the cleaning done now, and alterations 3 months before the wedding.
Then they will press the gown, and it will be done.
Any experience with similar situations? How much did it cost?
Once again, I need to explain something to Sniffydogs because he/she is immediately negative to one of my questions.
My gown cost $99. Is that discounted enough for you? It fits wonderfully, with the right shoes it will not need hemmed, just needs cleaned, sleeves added and bustled.
I'm marrying on a budget, and still keeping it classy, courteous to my guests and fun. I don't know what your issue is, but not everyone has $25,000+ to spend on a wedding. It is a real shame to throw yourself into debt over one day...not a good way to start a relationship.
Answer
Have them stop clean it first! If it's not clean enough, through a freaken fit for them to redo it. Mine is the same way although I paid $600 for mine it was 50% off and they are suppose to clean all rack purchase perfect!!
I would make them do it first and see how it looks- it will cost $75-$100 to have it dry cleaned.
David's gave me 100% it would be cleaned correctly. Let them do it their way first which shouldn't cost you a dime and then get more pushy if it's still dirty.
