thought it would take forever, but I actually found my dress without much complications. And I got it for a great price at David's Bridal.
Orginal price is around $699 or $799. Can't remember, and it's hanging in mom closet so my fiance' doesn't see it before the wedding. I went shopping at the end of the year and my dress was one of the styles being discondition, so the offered it to me for $300 if I took the one of the rack, which happened to fit me almost perfectly.
I dicided to looked around a lil more,before I made my decision. And when I went back they were having a hugh sale so I got an addition $50 off. It ended up costing me less than $300.
My shoes I found on a bride website that sell new and gently used wedding items. they are brand new in the box Italian silk Liz Rene Couture shoes that retail for $95.00. I only paid $10 plus shipping for them.
So the moral of the story is if u just take ur time to look around and do some investing You can find a lot of Terrific wedding Items at outstanding prices.
Happy Shopping!
