Re: Ok I could use some help!!!

Oooo good project! OK starting with the assumption that 'cheap' means NOT

(vs. you know, slutty) My BF got married 8 years ago and we found a

strapless satin dress for her in white, with a blush pink accent across the top of the straight bustline. I think it cost under $200 at the bridal store. WHY? it was a BRIDESMAIDS dress!!!!
I'd start there, even check out Davids bridal bridesmaids section, they have the best assortment of colors out there, and they do a mix n match separates thing that could be cool?

If you have a budget let us know, are we talking under $500, under $200?

Re: Ok I could use some help!!! I need a CHEAP wedding dress

When do you need it by? there seem to be alot of places on ebay that are doing custom deisgns for super cheap-probably synthetic materials but if you're soaking it in the ocean water anyway it doesn't matter. $49.99 well spent.

The kicker is it seems to take a few weeks-nothing obscene but might take over a month. But Ebay had some nice stuff. No idea what size you wear though so I didnt bookmark any of the pages.

Try yard sales and the good will. You get a wedding dress really cheap!

Re: Ok I could use some help!!! I need a CHEAP wedding dress

there are always dresses at thrift stores. I had gone to a few of them that had some out dated looking dresses but sometimes in a high end area you will find a AMAZING dress for $50
