HELP ME PICK A DRESS!!!

Hello Divas!!!

You all remembered the gown that I thought was the "it" gown for my wedding from Mary's bridal? the price for it was $810 - $950 alterations not included.

I was able to find some alternate gowns along the same idea as mary's bridal, but for a lot less. Please let me know what you think which will help me make an alternate choice of gowns. It's not that I couldn't afford the $950 +, but it's more than I had budgeted for gown. My wedding gown budget is a Maximum of $600.00, alterations, not included of course.

Choice 1 is by Group USA and it's $549.99, Style #41770/9028W. Taffeta side drape with beaded appliques, corset tie back and chapel train. It comes in Rose and Candlelight.

Choice #2 is also by Group USA and it's $599.99, Style #41790 / 9073W. Drop waist satin gathered gown with beaded lace bodice. Comes in Candlelight and White.

I'm leaning more towards choice #2 because it reminds me so much of the gown from mary's bridal. There's another gown from Group USA It's style #7014 and it's $449.99 an absolute vision. Oh I wish I could post it, but I found it in a bridal magazine a while back and couldn't find it on the website. I tried calling, but it's always busy. So, what do you guys think?

Hey Ginou, I am partial to choice #1!

(Both dresses are nice though -- please let us know what you decide on).

Re: HELP ME PICK A DRESS!!!

I saw those dresses in a bridal show recently and the 2nd dress was my absolute favorite, I am actually considering that for my 3rd dress (lol, i know I know, im waiting til closer to the date though)

Re: HELP ME PICK A DRESS!!!

I like #1.

Side bar: Did you try getting quotes from netbride.com or pearlsplace.com for the other dress? I got my dress through netbride and paid 1/2 of what the bridal salon wanted.

Re: HELP ME PICK A DRESS!!!

I am definitey impartial to # 2. Its is a headturner! People will definitely remember that dress for months and months to come. While #1 is very beautiful, I think that wearing a dress like #2 is better because its something only few would dare to do. It gives people a chance to see you in a new light, so why not take advantage of something a little different? I promise you...the results will be beyond your deepest imaginations.

Re: HELP ME PICK A DRESS!!!

Thanks ladies for all your kind words. I also asked my attendants to vote on which gowns they like best. I am so in love with choice #2 and I'm going with that.

Thanks again Divas!!!

Oh, and thanks for the websites (netbride.com and pearlsplace.com). Never heard of them, but will check them out as well.

Thanks again for helping me make my choice.
