Hi, i order my dress from dresillyme a month ago. It came this morning and i'm pretty happy with the result. This is the pictures from the web, dress design originally from Essense of Australia.

Ok because I had such a hard time finding info on buying a Chinese knock off I want to post a detailed review. This dress is gorgeous. Really well made. Great details, there are little beading details

Okay ladies, got it on, and it fits perfectly! Maybe needs a little tweaking around the bust...but nothing really! I will attach a few pictures of it, don't mind my lovely hair do!!

Yes, I also noticed the bulge under the left bust (right side of pic). You definitely want to confirm that is not how the dress will look when you receive it.  I must say that this dress looks better than the original. This is the second time I've noted this on these pages. I wish it happened more regularly.

And I have to admit: I looooooooooove the dress!! I wanted some changes to the original dress (no shoulder strap, add beadings to bodice) and they did it exactly how i wanted it. I love it! However, in one of the pics, it seems like the right part of the bodice is uneven. I dont know, if it's because they didnt tie it in the back correctly in that pic or if it's really uneven like it looks like... I've emailed them about it... let's see what they say... what do you think?

 

Here is the original dress from Demetrios:

This is the pic that makes me a bit worried... the right upper part of the bodice looks off. I dont notice it in the other pics though - is it because they tied it incorrectly or weird angle or something??

Ok, i heared back from their sales rep Nicole (same lady i've been dealing with since the beginning) right away and she reassured me that the dress does not have this bump on the right side of the bust like it looks in that previous pic. According to her, they used a clip in the back to hold up the dress on the mannequin - but since my bust is bigger than their mannequin, the material looks loose in that pic. She sent me a close up of that side of the bust and it looks fine to me now. So I'm even more excited to get the dress now!! I guess, i get it in two weeks or so - since it's getting shipped from China. If the dress doesnt have any issues - once i get it - and it fits me, then I'm a happy - veryyyyyyyyy happy - camper! :)

 

I'll keep you ladies posted.

Good Afternoon Ladies!

 

I just wanted to send a quick update... I just found out the Dressilyme.com has finished my dress and it is being shipped! I did not get pictures because they said it is a very busy time of year for them, I am hoping that everything comes out right, but I am not stressing about it too much because my Wedding is still another 5 months away. It being shipped to my Mom's house in Atlanta (I am in Seattle), but luckily I am going to visit next month so I will be able to see it in the flesh and try it on! 

 

So after having a great experience with getting my dress made I am wanting another dress embarrest.gif for my get-away dress. I came across this Mori Lee Dress, but I am not sure who will replicate this the best. I think I am drawn to the intricate flower details which could be problematic to replicate, but I love the Vintage 1950's feel of the dress more than I love the flowers so I am okay if cannot be replicated exactly. 

 

So which shop do you all think will be able to replicate this dress the closest?

Wow! Your dress is absolutely breathtaking! I love it! I've read every single page in this thread and your dress is the most beautiful replica I have seen. I agree- it looks so much better than even the original. You will look like a dream on your wedding day! Once you get it please post pics of you in it!

Hi, sorry. Didn't get a chance to post this...here's the inspiration dress [=http://watters.com/Product/WtooBrides/16428/#Colors:ivory][/] They added beading to the dress which added to it. Two issues, the bottom skirt different. And the dress is a Lot heavier than the store one. It still came out good and was surprised how well it fit. Good for 160 bucks

      Cabo Azul Wedding Cost / Review

      By Emmma · Posted

      Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!

      Wedding venues and wedding planner in Costa Rica

      By KristinaH · Posted

      Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
