Hello ladies. I would love a little advice here. I am getting married next October. So, I have plenty of time to deal with this small dilemma. I have fallen in love with a Mon Cheri gown. It is called the "Isabella." I absolutely love it. I've only been engaged a little over a month and I know it's the perfect dress. It has beautiful embroidery and the cut is perfect! The only problem is that I can't seem to locate this dress any where. I've looked at different website. Rarely, I find pictures of the dress but no information about where to find it or information about the prices. I'm hoping to take my time and find this dress at a discount somewhere! But, it's a little difficult to be strategic considering I can't even find the darn thing to try on or price!!! What do I do?

Southernthoughts is this your gown? http://www.mon-cheri.co.uk/bridals/25266.htm
Style #25266 Isabella is what you'd ask for when you call the bridal boutiques. Where arew you located? That's a beautiful gown.

Yes! That is my dress. I absolutely love it!!!! Everytime I see it, I'm sure it's the one. But, I can't find it to purchase on the web. I'm having a difficult time figuring out the price. I see an estimate on theknot.com. But, I'm looking for different options. I would consider buying a used dress, renting it or buying it at one of those warehouse discount places. I can pay the $1300 for the gown if I choose, but I don't want to be taken advantage of - especially if I'm not against other options. Any suggestions about how to 1. find the exact price 2. find the dress using one of the three alternatives I listed above?
Thanks!
Phenominique - I saw that you helped babielove find her gown. Please help me if you can!!!
It's funny how desperate we can get over a wedding huh?
Thanks!

Ooo that's so pretty. I know our girl is going to hook you up.
Phenomonique is like that. Thanks girl for taking care of us
lost lambs. LOL!! Southernthoughts I know how you feel, I
had to have my dress but the price the other stores wanted
was unreal. But thanks to Vibride I found Mo and my dress is
at my mothers hous right now. (and I'm grinning like the cat
that swallowed the canary).
Thanks! I'm happy that you ladies like my dress. I love it. When I see it, I get chills. Is that horrible? But, I still have no idea where to find it. I have to try it on to see whether or not it will look nice on me. Do you all think that I should go ahead and try to buy the dress now? I've been working with a nutritionist and I've come down from a 20 to a 16 over the last six or seven months. I can't imagine that I would get lower than a 14. Should I wait to get the dress until later in the year? My wedding date is 10/21/05. Or, should I just buy it and pay for any of the necessary alterations? First, I have to find it!!!!
Southernthoughts, congratulations on your weight loss. Although my dress size is a 16, I had to go with a size 20 gown (as you probably know the gowns run smaller than your actual dress size). Since you are so close to your wedding date, I would order the dress if I were you. If you lose more weight before your final fitting -- then it would just have to be altered. I did not lose any weight by the time of my final fitting, and I still had to have some alterations. Good luck with finding the gown.
Blessed be the Lord my strength ......
Made a mistake! My wedding isn't until 10/21/05. How early shold I get my dress?
